    Loveland res destruction

    Unreal to see that lake gone. San Diego has been in a perennial drought since the 1990's. Our loathsome loser woke politician's have had ample opportunity to get off their thumbs and act, but have always decided not to act and just raise the cost of the water to the consumer, to penalize us...

    Hilleberg Tents

    With my YouTube addiction to backcountry archery elk vids, I've never heard anything bad about Hilleberg tents. Randy Newberg really uses them and raves about the quality and durability. I needed to buy a 3-Season tent last summer for Fall elk season in Idaho. I was tossed up between...

    Idaho Non-Resident Application Dec 1 - Online Fiasco

    I missed the 1st year draw, but the last year it seemed ok. I drew #846 or so and pulled my tag after 2 hours maybe. But this year just blew me away how bad it was. I'll look into the Controlled Hunts. Thanks for that info.

    Idaho Non-Resident Application Dec 1 - Online Fiasco

    Zak, I get what you are saying. My hide was just chapped, cuz I blew a day trying to get tags and my 2023 out-of-state hunt was hanging in the balance. After the experience I had, I'm totally willing to go thru the old snail mail system and wait weeks or months for the results. The...

    Idaho Non-Resident Application Dec 1 - Online Fiasco

    Curious to know if anyone else enjoyed the Online Fiasco yesterday with the Idaho Non-Resident Application process ? :mad: I attempted to jump online at 8:30AM PST to enter the waiting room queue. It took 20 minutes to finally enter and I was #12,834 in queue. I also dialed into their 800# to...

    250 million designated for salton sea

    After all these years, I still see no political will to save the Sea today. According to the politicians, the costs to save it, exceed the perceived benefits. This State really doesn't want to support anything to do with Hunting related, but they will happily keep taking our money and raising...

    D16 2022 little buck down

    Good for You!!! I totally agree,.... ANY D16'er, is a huge accomplishment, especially on publick land. Pathetically, I had the *stink* on me for 12 years, until I filled a D16 tag. ....and mine was actually a smaller fork than yours ;) It was a trophy to me, I had it stuffed. Hard...

    CA D16 / A22 Seasons - Scouting - OnX Maps ?

    Quick Update - I purchased the multiple state OnX 1-yr multi-state deal on Father's Day, only $59 . My buddy in Idaho sent me a couple of Pins already, where we will be elk hunting during Archery elk season in September. Looks to be intuitive so far. I'll be going out scouting locally soon...

    Newb here too

    A comment on binoc's.......I would not buy a $59 pair of binoculars. You will quickly regret it and just end up replacing them out of frustration. Do your homework. A lot of great articles online about optics. You can get a very respectable pair of binoculars these days, that will give you a...

    Archery Peep Site - Verifier / Clarifier ??

    Hey, thanks for the info. I'll be going down to the Bow-n-Arrow to check this thing out. It sounds like it will likely fix my fuzzy pins ;)

    Archery Peep Site - Verifier / Clarifier ??

    I've been looking into getting the Verifier Peepsite Magnification kit for my Bowtec, to resolve my blurry pin issue. Curious to know if anyone has purchased and used this system and any thoughts ?

    CA D16 / A22 Seasons - Scouting - OnX Maps ?

    My question is, has anyone found OnX Maps to be valuable for scouting & hunting in San Diego ? After a long break, I decided to try SD deer hunting again, both archery and rifle. I'm going to try to hunt more north of 8 freeway from the Laguna's and further north. I'm going to start scouting...

    5/30 3-Day Searcher Report

    I thought I'd pass along, I went out on my first multi-day trip Friday, 5/27 thru 5/30 after my 1st BFT. I haven't been on much more than ~30lb YFT many years ago, so very limited practical experience. On Friday, the Searcher took us out ~ 30mi off Ensenada, really windy, producing 3ft...

    My Season gone by....

    I was looking at a few of my photos today from this past Waterfowl Season and thot I'd share a few. In SoCal - At the last minute, I was bumped out of my invited spot in a group camping RV spot for the Season at Wister, which effectively cancelled my duck season. I salvaged the season solo...
