Colorado Elk Unit 41,42,411 1st Rifle
That country can be THICK. Meaning travel and glassing through it can be pretty hard. Don't let your camp get raided by a bear -

Federal Land Sales for Affordable Housing?
I swear I've heard people say that people will never allow for any true "affordable housing" to come to fruition. If anything ever threatened home equity on a large scale, that would be disastrous.- TexanSam

Wyoming Turkey '25
Just curious, do you have any insight on what weekend would be best to go? Part of me wants to be there on opening Saturday, but I worry if there's still a chance for a late snow, and maybe I should wait a week or two.- TexanSam

I shouldn't have opened this forum...
For most of my adult life I have worked in a job to where I could not anticipate taking any vacation during the spring due to planting season. I could turkey hunt on days when we were not busy, but those were unpredictable when they would be and how much time I would actually get. I now have a...- TexanSam

Yellowstone Park in June, any suggestions on where to stay?
This summer we went and stayed in Cody. It was kind of a haul to drive all the way back to town at the end of each night. Next time I go I would do this- - Fly into billings, drive the beartooth highway to cooke city to stay for night 1 - Drive into the park day 2 and stay somewhere in the park...- TexanSam

How picky are you on public land when chasing whitetails
I've shot enough 2 year olds in the past. My new philosophy is also to hold out for 4+ year old, and fill the freezer with does, crappie, turkey or anything I draw a tag for our west. It can be rather frustrating though to have logged 30 days in the stand and nothing merited drawing back the bow. -

Wow... Hearing everyone's testimony has me rethinking how lucky I am. I'm still not shooting a 2 year old though lol -

How picky are you on public land when chasing whitetails
Hunting here in Kansas. I haven't seen a deer that I want to hang my tag on. Seen plenty of 1-2 year old bucks. One that was 3-4 ish but had a spike on one side. Another that was clearly at least 4 if not 5, but he had broken off both antlers. It seems that each year I push myself to try for a... -

CO Mountain Lion Ballot Initiative: Continuous Updates
A little off topic here but I never once thought of going mountain lion hunting, but after hearing/reading/watching all things mountain lions, it kind of sparked my interest for them. Maybe a lion hunt will be a graduation present I give to myself (once grad school is complete)- TexanSam

Whitetail hunting the rain
Who has had success hunting whitetails on rainy days? It's been dry as a bone here for a while, I've finally been seeing buck signs slowly start to pop up. Hoping this cold front and potentially the rut kicking off will make some deer move. The days I have allocated solely to deer hunting look... -
