    Tactacam Trail Cameras - Want one!

    Thanks for your answer, but "what guy" are you referring to in your response? Is it just the website of "shoots big bucks"? Not sure I follow you. I would really like to buy a Tactacam with the Verizon set up based on the price and reviews.

    For those with wireless game cameras, how well are they working?

    But as far as I know, the Tactacam brand/reveal (?), is sold out/ unavailable everywhere I've looked. The Spypoint sells an antenna booster, but there's another $60 to invest, and that much more to monkey with and have stolen at some point?

    For those with wireless game cameras, how well are they working?

    I'm looking into buying a wireless game camera to use at times when hunting season isn't open. (both to stay legal and to avoid thefts). I think I read in a review, that they may need at least 3 bars of signal strength to function in sending photos to my phone? Does that sound about right...

    Tactacam Trail Cameras - Want one!

    This is not a game camera, that I'm looking for. Thanks though.

    Tactacam Trail Cameras - Want one!

    I see the AT&T model is in stock, but I need Verizon and it's not in stock. Thanks anyway though.

    Gander Mountain? I thought they went out of business long time ago?

    Tactacam Trail Cameras - Want one!

    Looking to buy a Tactacam brand trail camera. A model with wireless capability. I see they are inexpensive and have great reviews. But I can't find a vendor that has any. They apparently are all sold out. Anyone know who may have them in their inventory?

    Elk Drop Camps

    Here's my two cents worth. One thing about drop camps, and sometimes even guided hunts is this. Let's say you're booking a hunt a bit later in the season. Be aware that an Outfitter may have had 3 other groups shuttled in and out of that camp prior to your turn there. How do you know what...

    Powerbelt bullets are hard to find?

    I drew a muzzleloader permit for Elk this Fall. I've been looking for some high grain weight Powerbelt bullets in .54 caliber, and thus far, it seems like most of the popular vendors that sell ammo don't have them in stock? I guess I can understand some popular ammo being sold out, but...

    Would Jeans Be Terrible for Mid-Season Elk Hunts?

    Of course there's better clothes made specifically for hunting, but I'd argue clothes don't make the man. (or woman). One of the most successful bowhunters of all time, Chuck Adams, hunted in bluejeans, a hoodie and stocking cap, and killed too many trophies to recall. He just adapted his...

    New ramrod for a CVA, .54 caliber "Apollo" model available?

    I did end up ordering from them, as CVA doesn't even have them available. Cost as much as my Elk tag though! Ha! Thanks!

    Heads for Colorado GMU 80 Hunters

    Perhaps a bit of good news for Unit 80 hunters, but really a bit too soon to say this for sure? That is, this season, thus far, is the wettest one since probably 2015. We've had some timely rains that have enhanced the habitat considerably. I'm not getting much on my game camera on a Spring...

    What are you talking about? ???????

    New ramrod for a CVA, .54 caliber "Apollo" model available?

    I think CVA did a recall on a lot of these years ago, and if I recall, my serial number just missed the ones being recalled. I never liked the sights on this rifle either, but that's another issue, and maybe it's just me on this matter, not the gun? Anyway, thank you for your help!

    New ramrod for a CVA, .54 caliber "Apollo" model available?

    Years ago, I bought an Apollo model CVA in .54 caliber. It's a stainless gun with a composite stock. I only use this gun about every 4 years, as it takes me that long to be able to draw an Elk tag. I broke the tip of the end of the ramrod, and now I need a new one. Are they available? I hate...

    Colorado GMU80/81 Elk Hunt Partner 2020

    Well, the Divide Ranger Station called me this morning to say the Rock Creek Drainage gate is finally opening today. It's been locked down later than usual, as an area of road got washed out. So, not to waste any time, weather be damned, I'm going over there tomorrow on the 701 trail and saw...

    Colorado GMU80/81 Elk Hunt Partner 2020

    Rackman77: I also live in Unit 80, and in fact my ranch is surrounded on 3 sides by the Rio Grande National Forest. I think I know where every single drop camp and outfitted camp is that is run by Fishtail Ranch. If you want to send me a private message, I'll give you my take/opinion on the...

    Guided vs diy

    In reading the advice to use a drop camp, here's what I've observed with them, as just someone that has camped in their area, and lead my own pack string past them and talked to the hunters. First off, I know full well, an area that is devoid of any Elk today, can have a large herd there the...

    Hiding cameras

    I've had two cameras stolen, and it's disheartening to say the least. I've found that camera placement can be pretty problematic, as if you have any branches or grass in front of it, the wind will set it off and give you a 1000 videos or pics of the branches blowing around. To conceal it...
