    2 young bucks this season. Public Land.

    Tags filled. We hunted many days, stayed out overnight, fought the heat, dehydraton for me one day, I was throwing up and could hardly hike to the truck, long pack outs, about 6 miles with a full pack and camping gear, and sore legs. A season I wont forget. I do feel a little bad for taking the...

    first time deer hunter

    So as a first time deer hunter I have to admit I a m kind of nervous about going. I know I can do everything until after I pull the trigger. Field dressing and butchering a deer is a little intimating. I can fillet tuna and halibut so I assume I can figure it all out with a youtube video. but...

    El Centro

    Took home 10 birds today, lots of birds flying and tied up in the thick stuff. I should have had my limit and some but i was a little off and a bad shot today. Birds were flying low and fast. Great time hunting in the valley.

    First time cleaning guns. My thoughts.

    Took my model 1100 i inherited from my dad apart to clean and even after watching a few youtube videos it was hard to figure out. Took me about an hour to take apart and clean and get back together but I got it. The mossberg 500 was way easier. Next I get to clean a 3030 and a rem 700. Hope they...

    Question About Reading Forrest Service Map.

    Went out to hunt some land that was legal according to the National Forrest map I purchased, but there is a cattle fence around the area. Am I allowed to hop this fence and hunt the area? My friend was telling me those fences are just county fences to keep the cattle off the road, is this true...

    Scope pad? Advice needed?

    So I got scoped by my Rem 7mm and it has effected my shooting? Im a little hesitant now. Has anyone had this problem and gotten over it? Do they make a rubber eye pad for the scope? If they make a pad, is it worth it, and does it work? And yes I could probably watch a YouTube video but I would...
