Just curious how most you prefer to hunt. I personally like to hunt on horseback in the backcountry, whenever possible. If I'm not on a horse I generally hunt on foot and backpack in to spike camp with a base camp at a trail head. I am not completely against the use of four-wheelers either, but...

I have a 1972 Baja bug that I am thinking about selling. It's been a project for several years now and I just figure I should part with it and let someone else finish it and use it. It's a great little hunting rig. Baja bugs will just about go anywhere. I originally set it up with a waterfowl...

I know, it's not a big game animal, but I wasn't sure exactly where to post it. I will say though, hunting big toms in the spring is almost as cool as hunting rutting bulls in the fall. The challenge of calling them in close enough to shoot is awesome! I always compare turkey hunting to early...
