    Colorado pref point elk question

    Quick question - if I put my PP as my first choice and then easy draw 2nd choice tags as my 2 - 4 choices; can I still get a PP and a tag in the primary draw? I’m fairly certain that’s the case but my buddies have doubted my strategy

    Hedonic Setpoint and Hunting

    There’s so much variety (weather, animals, terrain, seasons) that I doubt I’ll ever get to that point living in the west. If I hunted one species - maybe; but that’s just not the case.

    Hobbies other than hunting?

    I am good at a lot of things outside of hunting; but the time and passion is really only reserved for hunting at this point. I run and go to the gym everyday - but that’s so I’m in good shape for hunting. I overland - so my truck is setup right for hunting season. Fishing is a nice pastime but...

    Sam Elliott comments on “The Power of the Dog”

    My wife and I watched this the other night; there’s a lot of touchy subjects that I don’t want this thread to digress into. My wife sent me this article today because I had some sharp commentary afterwards. I was really hung up on the Tar and Stag mounts on the wall in the opening scene; the...

    Colorado non-res Doe license, $412 and draw only?

    Of all the doe-only tags in Western states it’s probably the least economic for a non-resident. I can’t speak to every deer herd in the state but we’ve got plenty where I hunt. I actually go to Nebraska to top off my freezer; way easier terrain, weather, and longer season. I think it’s $97 for...

    Sensible article on colorado wolves

    Great article! First time hearing the perspective from a rancher and what it’s like to deal wolves, the economic impact, and the general lack of resources to deal with the issue

    Montana Preference Point Expiration MT HB637

    Our new pack of wolves pushed all the elk into Utah - probably would focus scouting and building points there (and WY) :sarcasm: :)

    Replace truck with UTV?

    I live out West and would not get rid of a truck to have a UTV. Couple of things to consider (Heat/Warmth, reliability, storage/hauling, how many are usually in your hunting party). UTVs are super exposed which sucks when it get cold/windy; truck can haul a whole elk off the mountain vs...

    Mandatory Black Bear Harvest Reporting Change

    We have mandatory reporting in Colorado for bears; sort of a hassle but I also didn’t really have a problem doing it. The challenging thing was I had a work trip the following it day and I think you have like 48hrs to report it in or it’s illegal possession. Taxidermist has helpful but said he...

    Whats everyone's hunting season workout look like?

    I live at elevation (5,500’) so that’s a helpful starting point. My background is endurance races (Ironman / Ultras / Marathons) and I have two dogs that need exercise. I usually do an hour of weights and an hour of running a day. Season dependent I cross country ski. Shed hunting is my...

    Colorado SB 22-031 Ban on Bobcat and Lion Hunting

    Glad this was brought up - I’ve got some calls to make this week. Not sure I understand the logic of having more predators around makes sense (recreational activities) and I also don’t like the infringement by career politicians on my ability to go after game animals. Why can’t we get more regs...

    Cam Hanes (And Remi Warren) and UA Split

    @ajricketts - I’m not knocking anything about their military background in my commentary. My comment is specifically about their endurance/physical achievements they regularly serve up on social media and have in their respective books (which I’ve enjoyed mind you). It doesn’t impress me. On top...

    Cam Hanes (And Remi Warren) and UA Split

    Cam H is a great (positive) personality and a decent role model for new hunters; I also like UA hunting gear because it breathes well and the pattern works great for the terrain I hunt. Didn’t know / didn’t care CH was sponsored by them. That being said - his story isn’t that impressive to me...

    First hand Covid symptoms

    Time to contribute to the tribal knowledge. Wife came down with symptoms (cough/sore throat) after the holidays but tested negative. Retested Sunday morning and was positive; told me while I was goose hunting w/ my buddy that we went to the rodeo with the night before. We’re all 2x vax’d &...
