I was lucky to briefly catch threads started by some members when I first joined. Many of those members don’t post much. Occasionally, they will post a congratulatory post, but aside from that, they are pretty quiet. I guess this post is directed at the guys who have been helpful to others in the past and for reasons we can assume are due to the tone of the Fire decided to remain quiet. You guys are missed by many who enjoyed hearing about your hunts. Learning from your experiences both good and bad, and what you found helpful and worthless in your endeavors in selecting gear, rigs, and loads to slay animals. Here’s your invitation to come back and post from a guy who hunts and enjoyed reading and learning something new from all of you. 😎 Curiosity Killed the Cat & The Prairie Dog “Molon Labe”

I surely miss some of the posts/pictures we used to see every hunting season, especially from our Montana/Wyoming/Colorado members. I've been on this forum a few years now, and do miss some of the guys I first remember seeing on here and their adventures. Last edited by Oregonmuley; 11/18/19.

I'd like to post more but the whole photo thing is a PITA. I need to get that sorted. Beaver; I agree the tone has likely made a few folks post less, one can disagree with someone or do something differently without some angry individual throwing out insults and invective. We have seen clear and polite questions from folks honestly seeking input turn into juvenile ranting. Hopefully the "big guns" will return to posting and those of us (like me) who read and respond far more than we post original or important material can pick up our game. Perhaps more reasoned responses and ignoring the idiots might help too. Just my humble thoughts. Hope y'all are doing well this Monday. GRF

Not sure if small moose, or very big deer ?? Based on how the toes splay out and those dew claws, I'm pretty confident that's a deer track, assuming eastern Canada moose and deer are like the ones we have in the intermountain west. Hope you catch up to him...

He doesn’t post pics anywhere, enter contests or show off his game but they find a way. I lived in a part of the world where we didn’t measure antlers and only weighed our deer as that is what filled the freezer . We still don’t and I doubt I ever will. I put on 14.8 miles on my feet in 8”-10” of snow on opening day. The average won’t keep up as they don t break a 1/4 mile off the road all year. I’m also in the camp of not posting pics. Not that I have a ton of trophy animals to show off but I don’t really care to figure out how to post them and I find it to be a PITA. To the OP I agree. It would be nice to see the old dawgs come back. But I think they’ve found other forums that are less hostile. Keep your powder dry and stay frosty my friends.
