I bought mine over 30 years ago. It is in the .280 Remington. Never will hunt Elk with anything else. When I go there might be a little struggle over who get's her. She's a pleasure.
So it's really simple math.
x amount of hunters need Y deer population. so what we multiply X we need to do to Y.
In forty years, we have 3X the hunters and 1/2Y. To keep things moving along and everyone happy. 3X needs 3Y not1/2 Y but then who does Math anyway.
The state officials don't...
You really think those pictures are a close comparison to what we are discussing? Not even close in my estimation. I have no idea what went on there, but do know that large rocks have to be pulled up in the right direction to dislodge them, and certainly that building site looks very rocky and...
So I've done some building, (46years) and what you don't see in those pictures are what happened to get that foundation built. There very easily could have been machinery in the River, For sure rocks rolled into the river during excavation and backfilling the foundation. I'd guess that being...
So I'll be honest here. I haven't joined in the discussion much because this feeling you all have on quantity, quality and all around health of our deer populations are nothing new.
Kinda a piss poor attitude on my part, but it's arrived from years of getting kicked in the arse on the subject...
Either the Democratic system we have in place works or it doesn't? If not then we have far larger problems coming at us.
If I hear things right, we can't go to elected representative elections for commissioners because our system of democracy is flawed and doesn't work?
The PSC is a different...
Do you guys think there's a lot of thought process involved in how they get appointed now? How responsive have these commissions been?
A nonpartisan elected position would be light years ahead of what we have now.
I guess I missed the issue this year. I kinda thought things were less impactful.
I saw one smallish wolf track this year total. Came across more wolverines.
Oh, and as far as the Colorado talk at the local watering hole goes, There will be talk of whole schools being attacked by wolves, and...
I can't argue that a huge bunch of tag holders want to kill something.
I hear a whole lot of complaining right now on how things are going. Might be a good time for change. It's been in the making for over 40 years now.
My extreme view is that we need to take back our voice in wildlife management and run a citizens initiative. Make the regional commissioner an elected position that answers to their constituents. We already do this with PSC. It's not perfect by any stretch but has to be better than what we have...
I should of took a picture. Looked like cottage cheese mixed with meat.
The F&G came and took the meat to a couple of mt lion cubs to feed. The Bio told me not to eat it.
So in 1993 I shot a bull moose that was full of Tape worm cycts. The Department got me another tag, (couple of weeks later) that I never used. Just didn't see a mature bull like the one I traded in.
it is mildly entertaining though. For the record, I don't think I understood the what the term "Influencer" meant until just recently, so I'm pretty sure I'm not one.
