Where are you located? Got two coues capes today

300 wm is a do-all round. I’ve shot several coues with one and it wasn’t any worse than my .264wm that i always hunt with. Shot one with a .338 Lapua….only one. 10/10 Would not recommend.

Yes they are. Different brands/projectiles of the same weights will shoot differently. Even identical components of a different lot number can/will shoot differently.

Really brah? What a dipshit response. Most people that hunt can afford what they want. It’s an expensive hobby. The economy is tanking? Must be in the wrong industry

Aaaaaand he’s gone….congrats trphy, you remain undefeated

Sorry bud, you got scammed

My first deer hunt. My dad and grandpa found a herd of 3 bucks that was unbelievable for the unit/area. One was truly exceptional, pushing 200" typical. Opening morning came and we found them immediately and close. If I remember right we were only like 150 yards away. My older brother pulled up to shoot the big one but his rifle, a .264wm, was jammed. He grabbed my middle brother’s rifle (.270 m77) and it just clicked. He grabs my rifle next, which was a Remington mohawk .243 that had a sawed off stock and was really short. He shot the big buck and knocked him down. I was 2nd up and shot the next biggest buck in the neck and he was down. The great big buck was kinda flopping around and my middle brother was trying to line up on the smallest buck (still a great buck). He had trouble finding it in the scope. In the meantime my oldest brother told my dad he fixed the jam in his .264 and was going to shoot the giant again. I briefly remember my dad telling him to stop when all heck broke loose. He pulled the trigger and the rifle exploded, i remember the barrel wizzing by my head. When the dust settled, my oldest brother was bleeding from both ears and was extremely concussed and my dad was bleeding all over his face. Me and my middle brother were fine but confused. After an eternity everyone gathered their wits and walked down to the bucks. My deer was dead but the giant was nowhere to be found. There was a huge puddle of blood and a bunch of drag marks but we looked all day and never found him. My brother and dad spent the night in the hospital when we got back to town. They both had a bunch of metal removed from them. My dad had the shell extractor burried in his jaw muscle. Crazy, traumatic first deer hunt. Turns out, the weekend before the hunt my brother went out shooting with a buddy that somehow mixed a 7mm mag round in with his box of shells. The bullet traveled a few inches down the barrwl and absolutely exploded the whole rifle. Lucky nobody died but dang…..that was a giant buck that got away. We scoured the country for years and never found him.

Location?

Very cool. Congratulations.

I’ve got it pretty bad but just deal with it. Probably need to get the surgery. It is especially bad for a few days following a work day where i am hard on my hands. Makes it hard to sleep when your hands are constantly numb.

I saw a very l young healthy woman shooting a crossbow at usery a couple years ago and her husband said she was practicing for her archery elk hunt. She was able to get the permit because she was pregnant…..i’m all for crossbows for certain people but G&F really needs to tighten up the requirements. It is REALLY being abused. The form is a joke and any doctor can sign it. It basically says that it hurts too much to pull 30lbs.

Here’s my first coues. Shot in 2003 in unit 32. I wish we would have known how to hunt coues like we do now. We used to just walk around until we jumped one up. I remember we thought that the bigger one my brother killed was huge!

I’m from Round Valley and am all about supporting a good cause but a quick bit of research shows that this place is “pro feral horse” and headquartered in California. You can’t be pro hunting and pro feral horse. Hate to derail your post here but there are plenty of good local RV parks in town that survive off of hunters………..at half the price

Most of the dollars. did anyone but me pay attention to who these tags went to last year? Mostly "influencers"

I have an 18 cummins 4x4 with 35k miles that is currently worth about 45-48k i figure. Apparently tacomas appreciate

I thought my 2003 with 130k miles was worth maybe 15k….i must be able to get at least 30k for it. For sale!

A light recoil load out of a creedmoor will probably bounce off of a paper target.

I just got off a 17 hour shift working on trying to get people back in power in that area. The news chopper was circling us all morning. It’s a disaster. Probably a hundred distribution poles and around 30 transmission towers fell. I’m no weather man but it looks to me like it had to be a tornado based on the damage. Several semi trucks flipped over as well. Lots of people out of power and will be for a quite a while.

Have you tried “farm to feet" damascus? I am slowly ($25 a pair) phasing out all of my socks for these

I wear all Black Ovis merino now. I’ve probably got 5-6 of them. I have several Kuiu as well but I honestly prefer the Black Ovis at around half price. I usually keep my tabs on Camofire and buy it off of there

I was up there poking around this weekend. Everything is probably pretty fished out based on the amount of people at all the lakes.

Here’s a good local bull i took a picture of yesterday. Solid 350” i would guess. He was with a couple 300-320 bulls

Hopefully the old saying “rain in june, no monsoon” doesn’t hold true

I’ve always thought the same about late hits. I also bank with chase and every time i get a tag, my account gets hit immediately. I give up if my CC isn’t hit in the first 5 minutes of the draw. Kinda weird this year. Wonder if something wonky went on. Me and the other few people i personally know that got our cards hit yesterday all applied for the same hunt as well

I got hit for 2 deer tags at 12:38 today. I know 2 other people that did as well. Kinda strange
