Nonresident's Guide to Western Hunting A not-so concise look at the opportunities available to those who have decided to come out West for an elk, deer or antelope hunt and don't know where to start. This won't address bighorn sheep, mountain goats, or moose as those are typically once-in-a-lifetime hunts. This is also designed for DIY hunters, not for those looking for private land or outfitted hunts, as there are various other aspects regarding transferable tags that could also be addressed.

Marlin XL7 Rifle Review The Marlin Firearms Company has been around for well over a century. During
that time they have made many firearms, but they are best known for their lever
action rifles. Several million were produced, which is comparable to Winchester
and Savage, their main competition. The Marlin has a well deserved reputation
for quality and durability. I have several in my collection and they all shoot
well. A couple of them will give the average bolt action a run for their money
in the accuracy department. The 30-30 has been in my collection for over 40
years and still shoots very well. For this review we're going to look at the Marlin XL7 bolt action centerfire hunting rifle.

Oklahoma Bowhunting Grand Slam The first week of October was finally here. The first three days were spent in my favorite stand watching 3 raccoons in which I had named Larry, Curly, and Moe. The mother raccoon was slightly bigger than the two younger ones, and seemed curious to every movement surrounding them. The days here in eastern Oklahoma in October were still in the 80's with mosquitoes buzzing everywhere. I was wondering if it was still too hot to hunt and questioned myself again over and over.
