    drop-away rests

    Good luck with whatever you choose. Personally, I dig the wisker biscuit. Great for stalking, the arrow NEVER falls off, and oh yeah, it's fun to say

    long vs short action

    Ineresting stuff - so with a .300 wsm, can I still handload Bergers? I was about about to buy some dies this weekend.

    Kaibab archery success rate

    I noticed a couple odd success rates as well (not as odd as zero, of course). For example, the 16A Jr. hunt had a 65% success rate, compared to 18% for the 16A general hunt just a week later. I'd love to see the formula that somehow takes into account the optional harvest reporting.

    packable raingear

    I got a super-cheapo from old-navy on clearance that fits in its own pocket - picked up about 4 for around $5 each. Can't beat 'em for the price. Just a nylon shell, but hey out here that's all we need.

    Matt's Turn for a Tom

    Here's a picture of the fans and beards. The one on the left needs some work - he was a scrapper. Gonna make some mounts with natural manzanita, similar to this one.

    long vs short action

    Not necessarily disagreeing with you, Sniper but can you elaborate on the "better BC bulltes" part of your argument? For example a .270 WSM (short action) can be loaded with the exact same bullets as a .270 Win (long action) The same is true for .300 WSM vs a .300 Rem Mag, or other long-action .30 caliber rifles. Before the advent of the newer "short magnums" I would have agreed. Then most short actions were tailored to smaller caliber bullets that required less powder, and hence a shorter case.

    Good Idea or Not

    I love the OTC youth tags. Like many here, I'd give up my tags altogether if that's what it took to get the kids out there. I've got a 3C tag this year but it's staying on the back burner until my boys get their chance (1 down, 1 to go ) From a management perspective, I totally agree that mandatory reporting is essential to make sure we don't over-harvest and that adjustments can be made if necessary.
