    Wyo Wildlife Task Force and the new outfitter/landowner draw proposal

    I don't think people who care about conservation are going to stop caring but don't we all have limitations on our time and finances? If I do more duck hunting and trout fishing this year because I didn't draw an elk or mule deer tag it seems like it will be easier for TROUT, DU or California...

    Ecodiesel experiences

    I have a 2018 with 68,000 miles and I won't buy another one. It's been in the shop 7 times for various small computer/sensor issues and a fuel problem that took them 5 weeks to figure out. I've owned new Ford and Chevy vehicles and never had a warranty issue on either so I can't speak to how...

    Hi Craig, Nice to hear you got a tag. A call is fine with me. I'm pretty busy through next...

    Hi Craig, Nice to hear you got a tag. A call is fine with me. I'm pretty busy through next week in the evenings but my days are fairly flexible if you want to try then. 925-766-0299. Does your map show San Antonio Mountain? That's were we focused most of our attention and I have some areas...

    Training Books/Resources for 99.9% couch potato 0.1% hunting dog

    As mentioned above Walters has some great tips. I've used "Water Dog" for my previous two labs and am using a lot of the techniques for my 10 month old. I now have 9 and 12 year old kids, a niece that's at the house a lot and a wife. I'm learning it's much tougher for me to train the dog with...

    Im bowing out

    There's a developer that's been trying to build 300 or so houses on a ridge behind my house. The ridge is between two other developed portions of town and is nothing special. We have a lot of regional parks around for hiking and biking already. The community is so against building on that piece...

    Im bowing out

    People keep leaving the bay area but the prices here are showing no signs of slowing. Some close friends sold their house recently and were able to buy a brand new house between Denver and Fort Collins and a condo for their kids in the outskirts of Denver.

    NYT article on Meat Eater and hunting

    I watched them and you've got it right to me. The two animals being referred to in the recent episodes were small enough to fit whole in a back pack. The archery shot was on twitchy little goat in Hawaii that moved as he was shooting. Unfortunate, but part of the deal.

    First hand Covid symptoms

    Good luck. Everyone I know that had Omicron maintained their smell and taste. They also all started getting better after 1 to 3 days.

    Lions vs. Housing

    This will be interesting to keep track of. The city of Woodside is stating it can't meet the development goals handed down by the state because the city is all habitat for the "candidate for protection species" mountain lion. Even if they don't win the lawsuit they may add some layers to the...

    You draw one tag next year…

    I'm hoping my brother and I burn a pile of Wyoming elk points to do the same thing.

    GSP ACL surgery - which type?

    I'm not sure if it's different with different breeds but I had a tightrope CCL done on my then 4 year old chocolate lab in 2011. She was a very active hunting and family dog and never had a problem after the surgery. We just put her down last year so she was right at 10 years with the...

    Kids sports

    I'm on year 5 coaching my son and year 7 with my daughter for baseball and softball. Starting taking notes on all the parents and kids now so when you start actually drafting teams you can leave the problem ones off your team. The team meeting at the beginning of the year is the time to lay...

    Evolving as a hunter over time

    I definitely feel the same on waterfowl. I pass on calling a lot of shots that end up getting me some grumbles. Part of it is hating sending away a cripple, and part of is it loving the whole process especially getting the birds to commit and come right in. I'm fine with letting big game but...

    First hand Covid symptoms

    I though the Peter Attia Drive podcast #189 was very good. If you have kids or young adults in your life it has some great information on the risk trade off of vaccines and boosters for those ages.

    First hand Covid symptoms

    Felt run down Friday and Saturday and thought it was the result of a busy week. Woke up yesterday with a slight cough and still feeling run down. I never get headaches and starting feeling one at 10 in morning so I tested and it was positive. Wife and two kids are negative. I'm isolating and...

    First hand Covid symptoms

    Not surprising they got it here. I know over 30 people that have tested positive since Christmas. From kids to grandma's with all vaccine statuses. All seem to be about the same, cold like symptoms with some fever mixed in. Down for a couple of days and then start feeling better. I'm...
