    How Many Points Needed to Draw a Wolly Mammoth Tag?

    The regular butt-out tool isn’t gonna cut it. Thank God Harbor Freight has the Predator Mammoth model.

    “I will take every dime…” NE LB1413

    Ok my last post but I’d like to think we are not running any G&F into the poorhouse, I’m not advocating for that. And running on a multiple-year budget to smooth out year to year variance is wise and I hope occurs. But take CO for example. This is not a lightly funded operation.. 209 million in...

    “I will take every dime…” NE LB1413

    Agreed but have some things gotten a little rich in surpluses around the country? I’m not an expert on the where’s and how much so I am talking theory a bit, but would fall on the preferrnce of wanting my govt lean and mean (and efficient and productive). Not starved… but not over fed either .

    “I will take every dime…” NE LB1413

    I am sure I oversimplified it but then, what you are indicating is that their revenue plan is more aggressive than their approved budget, so I ask, why? I mean everyone likes more money, but as a government entity, how is it justifiable to raise so much more than you need over your forecast...

    “I will take every dime…” NE LB1413

    Maybe instead of hoarding excessive piles of cash, these game agencies put it to proper good use in real time improving wilfife in the state. If they can’t do that, then stop charging so much to obtain money they clearly don’t need for any known or approved purpose. These rainy day funds are...

    How Far with a 7mm Rem Mag?-Elk Hunting

    99.9% of shooters will run out of ability to confidently make a good hit long before the 7mag loses its ability to make a good kill if they had.

    Anybody else muzzleloader hunting this year

    Yes, still. But nothing showed on Saturday though the weather was so nice. The week before there was 6” of snow, it was 30 degrees colder and these woods were overrun with tracks. It’s now my last week to try to bring home some venison with the 58 cal. Hopefully I’ll soon have a better grip &...

    .54 caliber patched round ball elk load?

    I think you can safely cut back on the ft-lbs as compared to a centerfire, muzzies make a big hole, but you should be aiming to shoot the heaviest load that will confidently be in the kill zone at the ranges you are hunting, take only clear near broadside shots, AND keep ranges close, as would...

    .54 caliber patched round ball elk load?

    UP that load a bit, keep pushing until you lose accuracy, even if you have to try a different patch combo. Maybe put a lubed wool wad behind it too if you are shredding. I’d want a good bit more powder behind that round ball on an elk, closer to a max load. That is a pretty low power load you...

    Colorado GMU 81 ELK

    Hope you have fun. My advice… Take a broad view of the area and time of year and consider where elk were… where they want to go… and probably somewhere between is where they will be.

    Be honest about your Wyoming elk app!

    Special with 7. Pickins for higher quality tags (as compared to gen) are relatively slim at that level but if I draw I do think it will be worth it so long as I get a bull. But a fruitless hunt will really sting now.

    Its this kind of thinking that is what separated us from the animals.

    Doom & Gloom

    Well… not really. Things may be tough in DIY America, but perhaps not THAT tough. I’ve been thinking about what I do (or will) have rather than what I don’t (or can’t) have regarding future tags. This is not a list to gloat, or count unhatched chickens, but I have coded many of my future hunts...
