There's a G5 le on camofire this morning half off. I'd buy one, but just switched to BlackGold last year.

Prayers sent as well

Currently there's Minus 33 in smaller sizes and First Lite boxers in larger sizes about 50% off on their company websites clearance sections.

I thought the same way about stand hunting at one point in my life. I've mostly been a Midwest Whitetail hunter, and I came to realize for what I was doing, sitting still was my best shot at...

Nice birds everyone. Looking forward to my shot a week from Saturday in Illinois, then Wisconsin a few weeks later.

"I have always known it to be called a "honey burn" but from what I recall and don't quote me but it used to be against the law."

Yeah. Honey burns (also bacon burns) are illegal in some states...

I've worn glasses for 35 years -- first person in my grade school class to need them (had a few sets of contacts, too). Generally, I prefer contacts, but they are kind of a pain to take care of. I...

There are a handfull of them for sale on Ebay.

Are there usually leftover cow elk permits available throughout the state? Particularly thinking about 16 or maybe 7.

Harvest never really bothers me. I kill deer, then I take them home and eat them, so I harvest them, as opposed to crows or woodchucks, which I simply kill. Actually though, where I grew up, we...

The main function of pork in a game sausage is to get the fat content up, as game tends to be very lean. If you don't add enough fat, the sausage becomes dry and start to fall apart. The proper...

Don't know much about prairie dogs, but I think the new .17 wsm is kind of neat:

Kwikee 3 comes in at 5.6 oz. -- but you only get 3 arrows.

Thanks for the input. We ended up putting in for M & Y as second and third choices -- of course, we can still change our applications. These are the back up plans, hopefully we don't need them.

" but as my wife keeps telling me elk is the most expensive red meat per LB there is."

True, but you could take up golf, still spend a boat-load of money (if you want to take it seriously), and...

I'm fairly new to this game and in my late 40s. I intend to buy points and use them fairly quickly, not hold them for ten+ years. Build up, say, about 2 to 5 points, and go hunting. Probably never...

Member as well.

Preparing to put in my application and I was looking at a few second (and third) choice possiblities. Looks like they are few and far between. Top of my list are some of the general units (W, Y,...

Was just finalizing plans, and checked out Region R. Doesn't look like there have been any tags left after the first choices were drawn last year. I was wondering if you had any opinion about...

Thank you both for the replies. I've run across the archery-only restriction in some older threads on Laramie Peak Habitat Area, but I haven't found anything more recent and I can't find that...

So, if you buy one of those combo licenses, you can hunt elk all over in general units but your deer permit is limited -- Is that correct?

There had been a lot of Russell stuff being clearanced over the last few months, some of it is still around. I picked up a couple sets of their base layers at about 70% off -- pretty good stuff. ...

Schnee's is clearancing some Lowa's right now for about the same money -- limited sizes available though.

Thanks, mnhunter, definitely considering some general tags for second choice.

A friend and I had planned on heading to Wyoming for antelope this fall. Unfortunately, my hunting partner got his wife pregnant, and she's due right in the middle of when we were planning on going,...
