Good luck buddy!! I have an elk hunt of my own coming up. I am waiting for some snow that hasn't arrived yet.

Additionally, I personally like eating elk more than beef. An elk roast in the crockpot or on the Traeger, for me are as good as it gets.

I don't know anyone in Boise but I do know the folks at the Outdoorsman in Ontario OR are knowledgeable. I would contact them and ask if they would recommend someone in the Boise area.

My personal opinion is a bit different. All hunters are in the same basic family. Whether you like your family or not you should at least understand them and support them. All hunting is continually being threatened by development, politic etc. I don't see the sense if fragmenting our family...

North Western Utah..........the Sawtooth mountains, very few or zero young birds Western Utah..........the Cedar mountains, very few or zero young birds There were quite a few birds that made it through last winter, the issue was not precipitation between May and October.

The extremely dry spring and summer this last put a hurting on the chukar population here in Utah. There are a few birds around but I haven't seen any young birds only older and smarter birds and not very many of them. I feel very sorry for the few adults so I will wait for a better year. If...

I love that shot. It makes for an easy retrieve for the dog as well. LOL

Oh, man that is my favorite shot!!! It's the center station in skeet! I don't make a good shot every time, but I sure laugh when I do.

You can't go wrong with a Browning. That said, it sounds like you have never had a gun that fit you correctly. As you described your experience, it sounds like you were shooting a gun that was to short for you. Whatever gun you buy, I would have it fit to you exactly. You will be a happier man.

Thanks Goose, I have owned Danners before and they are a comfortable boot for sure. The only issue I had with them was that they were never truly "water proof". They had goretex but I swear they leaked just a little bit from the first time out of the box and just leaked more as time went on.

Last year, I gave my my hunting partners a knife for cleaning birds. This year I got them all boot gaiters.

Most of what we hunt is BLM. That said most of the pheasants are on river bottoms of edge cover. There are several state wildlife areas around and on Facebook there is a thing called the cow hollow access program near Adrian OR. They charge $50 per year and you get access to 1000’s of acres of...

Man oh man, I didn't realize how many passionate folks are on this forum. Thanks for not getting angry at me!! Lol. This post was pretty entertaining, much like a soap opera. I can't believe that so many people never lose a bird when they are hunting. So, do you count a leg dropped bird as...

They are the Euro Hikers.

You are the second person to recommend Crispi to me. Thank you
