I had a 42 Ford military Jeep. I wish that I still had it.

It's more like... On my last hunt there was a huge black wildebeests at 50 yards or so. My PH asked me I wanted him? It wasn't on my list and I already had one very close to the same size so I passed. But I was tempted.

What year of Jeep?

The problem with the smaller calibers such as the 6.5 and the others that you listed can also leade to wounded lost elk very easily. I had a coworker who knew absolutely nothing about hunting and he had a 14 year old boy who wanted to go elk hunting. So off they went to the local sporting goods...

I'll throw a little bit of a curve on this one. I've traced Butch Cassidy's trail through quite a bit of Utah's badlands. He held up the Castle Gate payroll in the mouth of Price Canyon and was seen back in a Price bar with a very fresh horse in the afternoon. A good friends grandfather...

I've quit wearing my heaver high top type of boots since most of my hunting is now done in the fall of the year and the Crispi non insulated Colorado II's work quite well. However a high top boot will never go out of style for a lot of reasons and you should have no problem wearing them on your...

I have followed this reintroduction since it was first talked about in the RMEF Bugle magazine. It is a testament to what can be accomplished with some hard work and suitable habitat for a elk. I believe that they will also find out that with the elk will come more cougars in the process. I...

Anyone who thinks that hunting elk is easy needs to come out west and try it. If you don't want to go the expense come on out on a vacation and see just where they live. Not the ones in the parks that have grown accustomed to tourist but the ones out in the hills from 5,000' to 12,000'...

Yes I have, my dream hunt for a grizzly in British Columbia. we only saw a single one in ten days of hunting. But the experience was outstanding. We saw elk, moose, black bears, coyotes, and a number of other animals. If the cost wouldn't of been what it was I'd consider going again. There was...

If you just want to shoot a animal then Africa is the place to go to be successful, but what is successful? I've been on a lot of hunts where my rifle was never shouldered at a game animal and some of those hunts were my most enjoyable ones. I have often said that I don't need to kill a animal...

The problem with thinking that your elk hunt is over on the morning of day one is possible, I've shot two elk on open morning, one took the rest of the day and into the night to get the meat to the truck. The other one I was able to drive my truck to it. Other than that most elk hunts will run...

If you are paying for guided elk hunts then head to Africa and hunt kudu. If you are a DIY hunter and don't mind putting in the time to learn how to hunt elk, then hunt elk plus you keep the meat. I've hunted elk for 50 years and have killed way more than my fair share, both bulls and cows...

Hit the report button on the lower left and put in what you want to do. The editing feature times out fairly quickly

You mean the inspections that took Iran's approvals before they could do them? That's where Lemay's idea was to go with the scorched earth idea to where there was nothing left.

I watched a short documentary on Curtis Lemay on what he had planned for Japan. His idea was to just keep up the fire bombing, 3 flights a day over Japan until there was nothing left. He figured that with the surrender in Europe and the additional men, planes, and resources that we would be...
