Guy did you read about the fellow who harvested a shiras moose in your state and it is a world record ? Do you know him ? maybe Dr Mike or someone can find the story and attach it

Hey guys, wanted to share with you what I shared with some young exchange students. Those in the colonies do not need to travel all the way to Africa for some excellent "change of pace" hunting. If one wants to hunt different species than they have done or do every year, try Europe. I...

will wonders never cease My granddaughter has taken a liking to her grandfathers old M.S.. He used 160 weight bullets when he used it, but that was a while back I see wood leigh has 140 and 160 What are you fellows using ? thanks

We dont have many here who respond to shotgun threads and/or have females in their lives who use them--but--I just did a very "hands on" research of several For a Female o/u--Syren semi- auto Franchi Affinity ( only reason I like it better than a Syren-- Franchi is inertia) These would be...

She likes to both waterfowl and upland hunt. To date she has hunted Geese, Ducks, Cranes, pheasant, quail, grouse, ptarmigan and chukar. She enjoyed hunting waterfowl but says her favorite is pheasant and ptarmigan ( she also said she will never hunt chukar again lol ) I am thinking either...

My granddaughter wanted to put skeeters in one of my shotguns and I am not a skeeter fan. They work "o.k." in a 12 to 20 and even 28, but not 410. Actually I am not a 410 fan either. Another problem with skeeter is digging out the shells or hulls. Then you have the weight of the shotgun...

Dr Mike--anyone please find and post this---they will stop at nothing!

1. How exciting is it to see so many successful hunts by so many different members in so many different locations . Elk, Deer, Antelope, Caribou, Moose, Bear all harvested by members just in the last few weeks. Actually a lot of Elk, and we haven't even heard from Scotty and Bill yet...

Granddaughter got her elk Arizona 7mm-08 Camilla 150 Scirocco 6 x 42 Leupold 242 yards 6/7 year old Bull ( 6 point ) with her mother, father and uncle still in the mountains as they have one more tag to fill ( I think my son --her uncle) This is her second elk Next Stop Spain and maybe as...

Several have asked me about the Cheetah. I tried to get Jamila to respond as she is far more knowledgable than I, but I am afraid that is not going to happen. Namibia has the largest concentration of these cats in Africa and one can hunt them, but if your from the U.S., you can not bring the...

excluding the 22 and focusing on big game hunting, even dangerous game hunting (bear, elephant, hippo, buffalo, lion, leopard ), I argued/discussed all three in a recent round table. We have two young female hunters on this forum who use open and fixed depending on what they are hunting and...

The thread recently about the 35 Whelen, which also brought about conversation about the Newton, promoted this question, as I did not want to hijack that thread. I know that Fotis, Charles, John, Cheyenne's husband. my late husband and others love (d) the 340. It can push a 250 faster...

I thought I would share a letter ( not an email ) I got from my granddaughter . I am condensing this as her letter was four pages long. She wants to hunt the following animals with her Weatherby Camilla 7mm--08/150 gr Swift Scirocco combination. Elk-U.S. Ibex-Spain Red Stag-New Zealand...

I am talking birds to bears and everything in-between and to be able--if time allows --to do so through out the year. I am assuming Dr Mike, Bear, Hodgeman, gbflyer, Gil and salmon chaser are able to so and possibly do. I know Cheyenne and Earle can and do. Maybe Guy ? Who else hunts year...

I have found that I am in the minority on this topic. I have never had a problem with using someone else rifle or shotgun to hunt with. We would be in another country on business and someone would ask us if we wanted to go hunting and we always said yes, if time allowed us to do so. My first...

I was fortunate enough to be allowed to set in with a group of approx 25 hunters, all 60 and older and we were discussing our favorite calibers, and actions. It was kind of funny, because over the course of my lifetime I have had the opportunity to use a lot of different calibers and I was...

Scotty and all other knowledgeable bullet fellows My son is running out of Bitterroot bullets and ask me, what I think compares. I am no where near as knowledgable as you fellows, but that in my humble opinion, Woodleigh and possibly Norma Oryx. ??????? Scotty, didn't Aleena or Jamila send...

Sako L691 or Weatherby Mark V Deluxe Assume they were the same price, must be walnut stock, , both are used, but still in the original boxes, possibly unfired. Which would you buy and why ? manufacturer, resale value, quality, etc second question, possibly only for Bear 78----which can works...

Lady from Texas successfully harvested a Giraffe in Africa and people have gone crazy against her. She made the mistake of posting her kill on the internet . Maybe Dr Mike or someone can find the story and post it up for all to read.

Have any of you fellows ever thought about trying to complete a slam or if any of you have, please tell us about it. We did get all 6 breeds of Turkey and I think it was called a world slam of turkeys. We often spoke of the North America slam and at last count we had harvested 18 of the 29...
