    How I plan to cool meat.

    Beings this is basically a big fridge my parents use it frequently to store food when they are having a BBQ. It cools down to 34 degrees. My mom will also store root vegetables in it during the winter. We can put a light with an incandescent bulb (if you can find one) in one end that gives off...

    How I plan to cool meat.

    Here are a few photos. I would like to do something to clean up the cords and cables hanging on one end but I haven't done anything with that yet. If you notice a dark spot in the top of the wall in one photo it was a moth that I didn't see when I was taking photos.

    How I plan to cool meat.

    I've been meaning to resurrect this old thread as there have been a few changes to our walk-in cooler. I can't see the old photos on this thread anymore but it was essentially a wooden cooler with styrofoam insulation. I built a new house for my parents and then later we built a new shop for my...

    Idaho draw results are out

    8 years in a row that I didn't draw arguably one of the easiest tags in the entire state to get. My mom didn't draw it this time either so I'm not alone.

    New Mexico Unit 45

    I'm in North Idaho so it might not translate very well but that long after the rut with winter approaching I would be looking at whatever elevation has the most available food sources.

    A September to remember and how I am planning it.

    Sounds like a full month. Hopefully you are successful. And post lots of pictures.

    Got my apps in..

    I never got on Facebook because it looked like a bunch of crap that I had no interest in. I don't wish I was on it. My wife is always complaining about how she doesn't have enough time for the things she wants to do but I see her spend hours a day on her phone looking at facebook. She could...

    Montana Elk non resident

    Hopefully you get the answer your looking for but you might want to contact Montana FWP directly. This website has been awfully slow lately. I'm afraid I don't have any info for you.

    Any whitetail down this season?

    I shot that deer about a mile and a half as the crow flies from one of my deer last year. Here are both of their racks. I don't know if they are related but they look pretty similar to me. This years buck looked ancient. He had the biggest neck of any deer I have ever shot. His muzzle was really...

    Any whitetail down this season?

    I finally got one on Nov 27th. I had seen a monster while hunting a different area but didn't feel comfortable with an offhand shot at around 165 yards and tried getting closer or calling him in and neither worked. I wanted to hunt a different area but there were people there. There were people...

    2023 Elk

    I wasn't planning on shooting a spike but my wife has been having some severe back and sciatic nerve pain and it's been pretty hard on her when I'm not around the house so I decided that I would take the first legal elk I had an opportunity at. I hunted about 7 hours one day and heard a bugle...

    Idaho draw results are out

    The only thing I put in for was an extra antlerless whitetail tag. Over the last six years this tag has had draw odds of 71%, 84%, 73%, 85%, 99%, and 94%. The draw odds aren't out yet for the latest drawing. But it's a pretty high odds chance to draw. I HAVEN'T DRAWN IT IN 7 YEARS. It's not that...

    Have you bought your Idaho tags yet? They have been selling out early lately.

    CPW Seeks Input on Wolf Restoration and Management Plan

    I think it's a good idea for Colorado to have wolves. You should come get them from Idaho. Take as many as you want.

    Bull elk size

    I notice you didn't fill out "exact locality where killed". Will you update that with GPS co-ordinates. In the interest of accuracy only please.

    2022 whitetails

    I wasn't having a ton of luck with whitetails most of the season. I had been out quite a bit but hadn't seen anything bigger than a spike and hadn't seen any scrapes or rubs. The rut was starting to kick in and I finally saw a decent 2 1/2 year old 4x4. I probably would have shot him but he saw...

    Bull elk size

    I agree. 7x7 and in the 340ish range. Whats big for elk? 400 is huge and not an elk your likely to ever see unless your hunting really great, hard to draw units. The bull in your photos would be a big bull here in my part of Idaho. They can get bigger but I think in my 43 years of existence in...

    Let’s talk 2023

    No changes for me. OTC deer and elk in Idaho. Possibly buying extra non-resident tags to use as second tags if they are available. (They have been hard to come by recently.) I'm planning on building my house next year so how much time I will have during hunting season is a question.
