A couple weeks ago, I couldn't take it anymore and had to get out to do some fishing. Also had a new 6'0" Fenwick light action rod I bought with Christmas money that I wanted to try out. I drove about 10 miles west of town to the Flathead River and parked my 4Runner where I could see it since...

This season has been pretty uneventful so far. We have traveled back to Choteau to hunt the first two weekends of the season but didn't make it back this weekend. Wish we could have though, since they get snow and cold temps most of this last week. Better than the 75 degrees we hunted in a...

Didnt feel much like fall with temps in the 80s but it was good to get out. About a week ago, I met up with a buddy and fished the Swan River. We fished for about 5 hours and caught 6 or 7 between the two of us. My fish handling skills were horrible today and all but one fish flopped back in the...

My family had an awesome season as far as deer go. My wife, Dad, and I hunted elk every weekend but just never could find one we could kill. But 6 of the 7 of us killed nice whitetails. The deer got hit hard with EHD around here last summer so numbers were way down. Seems like it took a lot of...

I took my little sister out yesterday morning and we could have shot a whitetail doe but we held off. Abby wasnt in a big hurry so we just watched them. This morning I picked her up at 6:45am and we headed out of town after we stopped at the gas station to get her some breakfast. We pulled up to...

My wife and I went bow hunting for elk this morning and we checked out a new part of the place we were hunting. We were walking down an old seismograph road through the timber and broke out into the most beautiful hunting land I have ever seen. The first thing I noticed was a big dark spot on...

I finally got around to shooting some test loads out of my 700 adl 243 that i had restocked back in April. I bought a H.S. Precision stock and had Kirby Allen skim bed it for me. With the old factory synthetic stock, it shot ok. Sometimes would shoot good and the next time out, it would shoot...

And certainly not the last! Bought a brand new gen 3 g17 for $499 at Big R in great falls. I went to two other stores first and they had the same exact gun priced at $529 and $579! Now I want a g20 to hunt deer and carry in the mountains! This is where she rests at night...on my nightstand

My godfather is nearing the end of his hunting days and gave me this rifle yesterday. He had it built in the 60s or 70s by a gunsmith in Augusta ,MT. It's custom stocked and chambered in 257 Roberts Improved. This is my first ackley chambered rifle and I'm excited to play with it! Sorry for the...

Just traded a guy my beretta extrema 12ga for this... Sorry for the crappy cell phone pictures. It's a model 70 stainless featnerweight 270 Win. She is a sweetheart! Can't wait to get out and shoot it. I'm thinking 130gr or 150gr partitions to try first.

Yesterday we were bbqing and decided to shoot some tannerite. I had a 2.5lb container in my pickup so I mixed it up and set it out on a fence post about 100 yards away. All I have to say is, it's a good thing I have to tear this fence out anyways and build a new one on the real property line. It...

And it's the funnest little rifle I have ever shot! Built off a 77/22Hornet action with 20" stainless barrel with the factory walnut stock bedded to the barreled action. It's got a Nikon pro staff 4-12x40 on it. I tookmitmoutnto my grandparents this evening and did a quick sight that would be...

Anyone else shed hunt? I've been out twice so far. Thursday afternoon about an hour and this morning I went out with my wife and a buddy for about 4 hours. I've found 7 so far. Thursday I went out to the property where I found one side of my 174" set. This deer is still on the property and...

I couldn't stand being cooped up in the house anymore today so I took my wife out on her first strictly coyote hunting trip. We got bundled up in bunch of clothes plus our snow camo and headed out of town with temps around 10 degrees and 15mph wind. We drove out to my usual coyote grounds and...

This evening I only had an hour to go out and try to fill my remaining 3 whitetail doe tags before the season was over...Nothing real exciting and my shooting was sub par. Lets just say I will be practicing way more off of shooting sticks before next season and I wasnt real impressed with the...

Tuesday evening, I went out with my Dad and we spotted a bunch of deer in the field we hunt. There was about 20 does and 3 bucks. We snuck across one field out to the edge of the field they were in. Dad dropped his buck at 265 yards with his 300 RUM and 180 Accubonds. He then went to give me the...

About 30 miles from here there is wildlife management area that is a hot spot for Julie's this time of year. There is a lot of small chunks of private land and the people feed the deer year round. So there are a lot of does around. Mid November and does equals bucks. Some giants have been taken...

Little sister and Dad went out hunting this evening. While they were walkin in, they got busted by two does and they figured everything was over with. Then they spotted a deer through the trees out in the stubble. Dad glassed him, and realized it was the buck he had missed Saturday morning. They...

After watching my little bro kill his buck last night, my trigger finger was itching uncontrollably. My wife and I were sitting at home in the middle of dinner when my little bro called and said there was a nice buck feeding out in the stubble field on some property we hunt. So wife and I put...

Earlier in the week, my youngest brother, Sully was out deer hunting just glassing from his pickup to see what was down in the coulee in the brush. A few bucks ended up walking out of the coulee into the field about 100 yards from his pickup and he decided not to shoot since it was early and...
