    Washington Post Opinion Piece Completely Misses the Point

    It would also probably improve the hunting - as mentioned earlier sportsman can be cheap and some would avoid for even a token $10 or $25 stamp.

    Serious weed help needed.

    My weed lady expert says this year is bad also in NW CO. Areas that I have pounded and thought I had completely under control this year now have a resurgence and she said those seeds can lay dormant for years and we have finally had decent moisture and this is not uncommon. It gets really...

    Talk me into Coyote hunting

    1st time calling a few years ago. Had a big male coming running from 800 yards and never stopped until I shot him right next to call. Couldn't believe what happened. Last year a female showed up at my call within 2 minutes of calling, I had to wait for her to move or I would have shot my...

    Let me know if you find any in NW CO. I pounded the Zirkels last year sheep hunting and could never find anything above timberline except blues.

    What to do with carcasses and bones?

    You are missing out on the all day house aroma of simmering. Either way a great use of the bones.

    How old is too old to hunt?

    My old man finally called it quits when he started seeing multiple crosshairs at 83 years old. Unfortunately he gave up shootgun shooting last year as his eyes went to crap. He still sits in the blind and gives us hell when we miss!

    What to do with carcasses and bones?

    I hide them. I don't ever want anyone to know that I harvested an animal in this location or next year some yahoo might be hunting it - Maybe I shouldn't have told you!

    Wildlife commission steps up to the wolf plate

    It is step in the right direction- it took a lot damage to get to this point. This decision if done when it should have been would have provided an opportunity to build the wolf lovers/haters relationship instead of deepening the wound and distrust of the government.

    Wall tent vs tipi tent

    Asher/Rmyoung - I am coming from the side that I would give anything to add a couple of extra years to my families elk camp and my fathers comfort. My dad turned 85 earlier this year and 2years ago was last time he could make into our elk camp that we found and have been using 47 years. We...

    What is you "Happy Place"?

    One of my happy places is sitting in this piping hot wall tent with a cold beer and family and friends - all the while it is snowing like hell outside. Life can only be better if there are a couple of nice racks resting on the firewood supply outside!

    Wall tent vs tipi tent

    8 hours back in - If you are not using the stoves or any of the other nonperishable gear for anything or than this hunt - I would dig a hole and bury it each year. Someone is going to chime in that its probably not legal, but if you dig a nice hole and bury it I can't imagine anyone would...

    Most of your time should be spent glassing the junipers, these elk have been hunted for months and you will need to be glassing all the time trying to find them. They do typically move around at daybreak and dark. There will be a gobs of hunters and campers and they will be spooking and...

    2024 Colorado Draw Results Thread

    I know someone whom drew a Unit 6 Bull Moose tag and I really don't want to tell you how few points they had. Like they say, get the 3 weighted points and anything can happen. I feel bad for all of the top end weighted point holders whom now are pushing 60+ years of age and can't draw a tag.
