    Why do you hunt?

    Because I’m slightly more domesticated than a bear.

    Colorado deer tag allocation 2023

    Already booked a 2 day over Labor Day weekend and another 2 day in mid Oct in anticipation of no decent tags. Doing the Freedom out of San Pedro for those. Availability on those trips is still ok, but a lot of the fall trips are booked up. I guess I have a slight chance at doe tag in 11 or...

    Colorado results deer & elk date?

    My cc was hit 6/2 last year for deer. Got a pretty good feeling my card does not get hit for deer or elk this year. Those tag cuts in the NW units are brutal for both species. And I can say with certainty I will not draw the mythical unit 61 1st season elk. This might be the first year ever...

    Colorado deer tag allocation 2023

    Ouch. No chance for me on the deer and elk tags I wanted. Even a slimmer chance at my 2nd choices. Could get lucky, but seriously doubt it. NW units sure got slashed. Guessing this fall will be offshore fishing instead of hunting in CO. Got the bad news already on Utah apps.

    Colorado deer tag allocation 2023

    You’d have to draw a muzzy tag for mule deer, no OTC. You are too late for the 1st draw. Maybe can get 1 in a less desired unit though in the leftover draw. Licenses are season specific generally. Probably not too many folks will be drawing anything with zero preference points this year...

    NHL playoffs

    Chicago is stacked with draft picks moving forward for a few years. They have 40+ mil in open cap space heading into 2023 too. They will find somebody(s) to play with Bedard Over the next several years. Gonna be slow though and painful for a couple years.

    Jackson WY shed opener

    Growing up, if I would have asked my dad to go shed hunting, he probably would have smacked me and said what good is that gonna do. I did not get it then, and 40 years later I still don’t get it. I walk right past a few sheds most years while hunting. Probably will walk past some this year...

    Decline of elk quality in Colorado GMU 61

    Maybe so, but that theory has not and is not materializing a tag for me In 61! I can say that my cc will not be charged for a 1st rifle bull tag this year, with relative certainty.

    Decline of elk quality in Colorado GMU 61

    I think all of you should agree that there are no elk worth shooting in 61, and stop putting in for those tags. Thanks

    Gear List: Favorite Hunting Accessories

    A real down pillow is my #1 must have accessory for cold weather hunt camp. It makes a huge difference for me when temps get under 20 degrees, and a God send when it’s single digits or -.

    Thoughts?

    I’ve yet to see a shortage of buzzards, ravens, mountain lions, bobcat, coyotes, golden eagles or black bears. I’m sure none of them ever found a gut pile they did not like. If lead was an issue, you’d think in western states with plenty of deer and elk, all these predator and scavenger...

    Wyoming general elk tag units

    You could just get a CO over the counter tag and not worry. There’s some good units that border WY, but no griz. Makes for better sleeping.

    Colorado Announces Plans to Release “30 to 50” Gray Wolves Along the State’s Western Slope

    Not sure why everyone is all upset over this. Guessing any reintroduction will be regulated by ranchers and hunters, one way or another.

    Forest Service Issues ‘E-Bike’ Guidance

    I guess I’m lucky I hunt an area where I’ve seen zero e-bikes. How the heck do you get a deer or elk packed out with an e-bike anyway?

    Freeze Dried Meals

    That says something. I just ordered up 2 of the burger and added a couple of the chili. Added a couple of the queso dip too for the heck of it. Will try one of each at home first before they get added to the hunt menu. Hoping they are nice change ups/adds to my fave Peak items, and now the...

    Freeze Dried Meals

    Would you order it again? Looks like a nice option as a change up to the pasta/rice/potato thing that most others offerings have.
