They are delicious. Sitting at work right now, listening to the wind blow 100 mph. Temperature has dropped about 30 degrees from yesterday. Get that real cold air in your nose when you step outside. Praying for a foot of snow in the next couple of days. Hoping to see the frost sparkling in the...

Cow elk season starts for me on Friday. Hunting Friday through Sunday this week. My first grandson is supposed to be born on Wednesday. That may change my plans a little. But I am definitely ready to be elk hunting. After that it will just be hunting on days off. The area I will be in is dirty...

I’ve been whitetail hunting once. Shot a young buck in eastern Oregon. Whitetail steaks are delicious. Would love to hunt them again. Hoping to go again within the next year or 2.

I can’t believe nobody else has a hunting story to tell this year. The last month was pretty busy for me as I had 2 more hunts to help on. My wife’s 91 year old grandfather had a deer tag this year. We offered to take him for a week. The hunt was a lot more challenging than I thought it would...

I live in the middle of Nevada’s old mining districts and am a huge history buff. I’m always ready to go snoop around old cabins and ghost towns. I’m not huge on panning or digging gems as I work in a gold mine and do not want to dig on my days off. Hunting arrowheads (where it’s legal) is...

I go places looking for brass to pick up. I reload. It’s the only way I can afford to shoot as much as I do. If I find a pile of brass for cartridges I don’t reload for I save them for others or trade them for stuff I do use. I’ve got so many 9mm and 223 brass I don’t think I could ever reload...

Buck 110 is the first knife bought for every future hunter in my family. My dad has given away 6 to his kids and grandkids. I’m about to buy my first grandson his. He should be born late November early December.

Thank you

Thank you!

One more… mandatory pack out picture.

Sitting in camp that night reminiscing and looking through scouting pictures and hunt pictures I got 1 more surprise. this is a picture of the first 2 rams I posted on this site. My wife and I spotted them on July 19th. The bedded ram is the pretty ram I would have shot. The standing ram, the...

As I walked up on him, I realized I had just shot the biggest ram I had seen all summer. While waiting for for my family to join me, every emotion possible hit me. My uncle, my dads brother, had passed away five years earlier. He was the hardest hunting man I had ever met and loved sheep...

Two days before sheep season I loaded all my camping gear in my dodge. Loaded my optics and hunting pack along with my 2 favorite rifles in my Tahoe and put it on the trailer. With as many sandy roads as there were in my area and as rocky as the country was, the Tahoe just seemed to fit the bill...

So I tried running my solar controller with diodes inline to keep the controller from back feeding when my truck is running. Using diodes won’t allow the battery to turn on the controller. I still have questions in my head. How would the controller know whether the battery is full from the solar...

Scouting for my sheep hunt has been my priority since the first of July. I’ve neglected every responsibility I have and it is not going to stop anytime soon. I have all of august to continue looking and trying to relocate what I have found so far. I am having a blast “hunting” without my rifle...

Sorry I didn’t see this earlier. It’s a weld together kit. So far it’s held up great. Only complaint is the finish, but that’s on me. I intended to raptor line it but what I had left from the rockers wouldn’t spray when I was done welding the bumper. So it got a rattle can job and doesn’t look...

I love the 78/79s. That is one very clean machine. I am now looking for another one. Hopefully with a 4 speed. The wife pulled the reigns on my planned rebuild on my 79. So it’s either another bronco or a 78/79 f250.

Good catch. That was sharp witted enough I will not be editing my post.

I run 2wd 90% of my offroad travels. 4 hi is for when the tires start to spin. I hate the thought of chunking out 2 grand in tires. I will also use it anytime there is snow. Power to wait ratio will cause most trucks to sit and spin in the snow. 4 low is for when the engine starts to bog down...

I won’t spend thousands on lights. I refuse to do that. I have a $100 20 inch light bar on my dodge that does both white and amber light. The amber, actually orange, work awesome in the snow. During hunting season I want to be away from my truck at first and last light. That means I’ll be...
