    Colo sheep/goat this week

    Well, at least I don’t need to explain to my wife why I need to make an extra trip out west this year...

    ID Moose Worth It?

    Without otherwise hunting there and needing to buy the hunting license, it’s gotten to be too expensive to be worth my while. I figure putting that much in savings each year is better. If I lived close enough that I could apply in person and didn’t have to pay the credit card/phone fee I might...

    What did you, or are you still hoping to draw? I’m stoked!

    Hoping my dad will draw a 1st rifle elk tag in CO with a good number of preference points. Either way, I’ll be doing archery and shotgun deer in MN. Looking most forward to taking my son with me for deer for the first time this year. I’ll be less picky than normal if I get a chance with him...

    Colorado Question

    Shhhhhhhhhh 😜 This is correct. Poor attempt at a joke due to all the complaining of the extension.

    Colorado Question

    You can’t do preference points only until tomorrow................... ok..maybe try this

    For those of you that own Swaro....worth it and why?

    1) personally I’d go SLC if you can still find one (plenty of options if you’re ok with used) or NL. I wouldn’t go middle of the road since EL are still quite expensive. I bought the SLC and am happy with them. I do wonder about the NL though. If I didn’t have the 10x42 SLC I’d be looking...

    12 Colorado deer points

    To capitalize on your points I’d recommend Unit 18 2nd season. As you’ve already discovered, dates are amazing this year, and point creep is going to suck. Hunt on or near roads. Shouldn’t have too much competition there.

    I'm not buying points for Colorado anymore, tell me I'm wrong.

    Better enter a unit number and say you’re going on a hunt there to ensure that it gets revived in 8 years then

    I'm not buying points for Colorado anymore, tell me I'm wrong.

    Unit 40 is highlighted for archery but is way above 3 points.

    7 preffy points

    I don’t know about deer, but the order you have the elk units in is the order I would choose

    Moose, better than elk?!?!

    Do you have pics of the hide? I’m considering doing that if I take my dad for a cow. Just wondering what they look like completed.

    Moose, better than elk?!?!

    Colorado is your best bet. I got a shiras a couple years ago. No elk yet to compare it to. I think it’s good, but honestly I think midwest (corn/ soy bean/etc. fed) whitetails taste better. That said, I’m hoping to take my dad for a cow moose in a couple years. They’re fun to hunt!

    Rubs. Let's see 'em!

    Unfortunately, I don't have pics of most of the better ones I've seen. Here is a fence post the deer always seem to rub on. The buck was shot right near the fence post. Notice the cut in the top of his nose. I don't know, but it seemed possible he may have cut it on the barbed wire while...

    And the Hits just keep on coming....WY now.

    This is a good mentality. They should care about their constituents...not that I didn’t express my opinion anyway 😁

    And the Hits just keep on coming....WY now.

    I can’t wait for hunting season to get here so we can start reading hunting stories again.

    And the Hits just keep on coming....WY now.

    The selfish part of me is upset by this, but I can understand why Wyoming would want to keep more opportunities for residents. With decreasing value in NR preference points for MSG, my hope would be that eventually they would get rid of the preference option altogether and go random. I’m sure...

    Moose - Lets see em!

    Very nice! Seems like that might be something to dance even more for!

    Trail camera suggestions

    Another vote for reconyx. Up until a few weeks ago, I’ve only run my cams in photo mode. I had been using two reconyx, one browning, and one cheap campark from Amazon. The reconyx blows the others out of the water for photo quality. I was disappointed with the browning photos. I have the...
