    OTC Colorado tag?

    Same for NY .. check in everything. But it's all online or by phone and it takes 30 seconds. A few years ago, I dropped off a doe at the processor while I was on my way to my northern hunting camp and they were slammed with guys dropping off deer. The DEC biologists will set up shop there to...

    FS closes informal shooting area due to trash and complaints

    A few years ago I went out to a public land pond to do some spring trout fishing. Someone had dumped a washer there at the adjacent campsite. Which is funny because about 10 minutes later two guys showed up to fish as well, took one look at the washer and threw it in the back of their truck to...

    Lead fragments in hunter harvested deer

    I switched to all copper last season and the one buck I shot with copper didn't take many more steps. There has been some interesting research done over the last few years that suggests that leaded gasoline plays(ed) a strong role in violent behavior in young people reflected in the violent...

    CO Preference Points?

    Yes. The CO 2017 license season ends March 31st. The draw deadline is April whatever. You need to have held a license for the year prior (i.e., 2017) to get the reduced costs for points in 2018 (i.e., this upcoming draw). If you do not purchase a license for the 2018 season, which ends March...

    School/Mass shootings what's the answer?

    Tangential to this, there is interesting research correlating the decline of the violent crime rate with the end of leaded gasoline. Basically, as leaded gasoline was phased out, the violent crime rate decreases. It's a correlation that is repeated globally and temporally. It's not considered...

    School/Mass shootings what's the answer?

    Not to mention that the FBI gets about 1300 tips per day through their website, which staffed by a 20 or so people. Each field office receives dozens of tips per day as well. In a month, that could reach 50,000 tips. Put one hour into each tip, and over the year, that means ~280 full time...

    newfoundland moose

    Two friends drove from the Syracuse-area this year. They were in a group of four and tagged out on moose. The two largest (8.5 year old and 5.5 year old) were taken quite a distance from camp (I think the guides said that they hadn't been that far back in ten years). Driving was far better...

    2.2 Million Fewer Hunters Since 2011

    True, I have plenty of access to land to hunt, it's just where I grew up which is an hour or so away from where I live. There are some closer areas I could try to get access to, but honestly, it's not worth my time. It's not so much the urbanization, but suburbanization and fragmentation of...

    Silencers

    Does anyone use the electronic game ears that only reduce harmful noises? Curious how they work. I'm protective of my hearing (living and working on air force bases will instill that pretty quick) and I'm not a huge fan of gun shots (or fireworks for that matter). I prefer bowhunting because...

    NFL players not standing for national anthem

    I'm a veteran* and have zero problem with someone exercising their right to free speech. If anyone has any questions as to why players started kneeling, https://www.nytimes.com/2017/09/25/opinion/colin-kaepernick-football-protests.html?mcubz=3"]read their own words rather than someone else's...

    First elk, Cow, CO archery

    Congrats on an archery elk! Sounds like the old joke with a man on his roof waiting out flood waters: as the waters rise a man in a canoe comes past, "buddy, need a hand?" "Nope, the Lord will provide." The waters continue to rise. A couple comes past in a boat, "Storm's gettin' worse, we got...

    Hows your workouts goin?

    Gout sucks. I've had it off and on since I was 28 and just out of the military and in great shape. I'm just predisposed to it I guess. I have found that concentrated tart cherry juice (an old timey remedy) works wonders for me. If I feel an attack coming on, I drink a bunch of the juice and...

    Climate warming and declining moose populations

    And there's the Gish Gallop. Dust bowl, medieval warm period, Foy Lake, etc., are all local/regional events not specifically related to any global events. Global temps were generally cooler during the medieval warm period. The climate chart is not just computer models and is based on direct...
