    What Watch do you wear when you hunt?

    So I know I showed everyone my PO when this thread started a few years back. But I did make a purchase I believe 2 years ago that I now have been wearing as my hunting and ranch watch. It's the Hamilton khaki x wind. I felt a little less guilty wearing this over my PO in mountains scratching it...

    What Watch do you wear when you hunt?

    I actually had that before my suunto and quickly returned it. I had horrible accuracy with mine. Apparently it was a issue for a while then I have heard the newer ones are far more accurate. I would literally climb like 400m apparently going up my staircase. And I was regularly having heart...

    What Watch do you wear when you hunt?

    Wow. I've been away from the forum for quite some time. I think I'm doing it on purpose before you all convince me I need to go to Africa. Again. It's awesome seeing this thread still going. Love to see all the watches. From all brands, colours and price categories. This is a judgement free...

    How to flatten giraffe rug

    Hello everyone. Received my giraffe rug finally. It was all wrinkled and folded during shipping. I have laid it flat on the floor now for about a month. Some areas have naturally flattened out which is nice. But I still have a couple questions from those of you who already have one of these...

    Need help with broken Kudu euro

    Hey guys. So got my delivery today from my trip last year in Limpopo. I was not thrilled when opening the box. I did all euros and a few cool things with my giraffe. But they clearly over cooked everything. All the bones are so brittle even if I squeeze ever so slightly it crumbles. Of 6 euros...

    CANADA: British Columbia Mountain Goat & Mountain Mule Deer

    Day 3 was a well deserved rest. But with accordance to BC law any goat or sheep needs to be scored and inspected by a provincial game officer. So we decided to go into town, have that taken care of. Re filled the beer and whiskey inventory. And bought A LOT of Advil..... as that second day...

    CANADA: British Columbia Mountain Goat & Mountain Mule Deer

    So Day 2 begins. I woke up thinking I was going to be sore as hell. But then I remembered.... no that's right. When you get old soreness always starts on the second day not the day after, Its Gods way of letting us have one more day to get out of any situation and then locks every muscle and...

    Would you like a Cigar?

    After already having a few weeks deep into freezing temps here in Canada. To all of a sudden having a Sunday that's 24 celsius in late October. Why not sit back and watch the cattle and have a nice cigar. I've struggled finding these Andalusian bulls. This will be my first one.
