Why does the Supreme Court care how we fish??

What are y'all puttin in for this year? I put in for a D14 deer tag for the draw, a normal D16 deer tag, and points for elk (since, having 0 points, I knew there was no chance). Slapped on the Upland bird validation and stamp also. Not 100% sure if Im doing ducks this go around, as thats the...

A bit of a late post about the hunt last wednesday, but had a great time out at Sutherland. For a city boy, seeing a sky filled with stars is definitely a rare occurrence, and a clear sky at 0330 out there was amazing. Robert and I got set up and ready to go around 0500, listed to the spring...

Hey all, As you know, CA legislature is seeking to turn pigs from a game animal (requiring a tag per hog) to an exotic and turn it into a validation (much like out beloved turkeys, ducks, and upland birds). It would be very cheap to get the validation and you’d be able to hog hunt without a tag...

I know this is a bit late, but I’ve been celebrating my 30th birthday for pretty much the last 5 days. I had a great time at the TTU! It was great meeting and hanging with Steve, Nick, Marc, Horto, Barn, and everyone else from SCH and NWTF. Steve gave me my first taste of wild game with his...

So, for months I’ve been trying to just SEE a damn deer. Hours and hours spent sitting and hiking looking for any sign of movement, taking the sight of any type of sign as a total victory and tonight… tonight one of those bastards finally showed themselves…AS I SLAMMED ON MY BRAKES. Taking the...

Welcome back to the most boring book you'll read all week! This past Tuesday, back at it looking for animals. Look, at this point, I just want to catch a glimpse of a deer. Ill save you the time, I didnt see any. However, what I did find this time compared to the last outings, was good...

Got back into the field yesterday! For those of you who saw my previous thread, I’d been held back by so much lately. Needing new boots, needing to exchange those boots, F-ed up paperwork leading to a delay of picking up my rifle, rain, work, and gear failures. Yesterday, before dawn I made my...

So since the best scouting times for big game tend to be morning and night (especially here in hot ass Los Angeles) I figured Id take up fishing to keep me outside and occupied during the afternoons or during the days I cant make it to the mountains. I am mainly after bass (small and large...

Finally, my .308 is out of CA gun jail, the rain has stopped, my new boots have been delivered, and my rifle scope has been zeroed. Picked up the Savage Axis .308 from jail a few days ago, headed promptly to the range down the street from the store with my old man and got her sighted in. Took...

He definitely delivered here. Some new Vortex Diamondback bino's, a big 'ole floppy hat to keep the sun off, and a very snazzy Lululemon jacket from my girlfriend to help keep my ass warm. Paired all with a VERY well stocked and portable first aid kit, and Im ready to get back to the field...

Just found both a .308 rifle AND lead free ammo in stock (sorry boys, they only let me order 2 boxes, since thats all they had left). Got the Savage Axis XP, comes mounted and (supposedly) bore sighted out of the box with a Bushnell 4-12x. I head out tomorrow to sign the papers and put the...

Hey y’all, For those of you who don’t know me, my name is Mason, I’m 29, and I’m new here (you can even find me in the newbie section) So, here’s the deal. I’m trying to hunt. Which means I need a spot to hunt in (or a few spots). Problem is, I don’t have any spots. I don’t have any family who...

Hey all, First off, Happy Thanksgiving! Im new here to SCH and new to outdoorsing in general. Been on a couple - few mile hikes but looking to do more. Id really like to do more backcountry hiking, start off with some established campground/car camping (I do love a flushing toilet) and move...

Hey guys and gals, Im 30 and I have lived my whole life in the Los Angeles area. My family was never big on the outdoors unless there was a hot shower, flushing toilet, and pillow mints to return to. Lately Ive been getting more into hiking and camping, have always wanted to hunt but had...
