    Boot lifespan? Danner Pronghorns not holding up

    The just don't make good boots like they used. Basic hunting boots 30years ago lasted for years -like everyone is agreeing we are doing good to get more than a year or two out of them. I like Danners but they sure don't last very long. I usually turn my elk boots into pheasant boots after a...

    Death Valley Vacation?

    It will be time well spent - hopefully not too hot. Stop at ALL of the points of interest. And yes it hard to believe it can 90ish+ and then there can be snow on the peaks to the West. Amazing to think the real natives actually spent part of the year surviving in the area.

    Denver area bird hunters

    To me heading 3 hours East of the Front Range is not a big deal. Heading West sucks with all of the heavy traffic. One can easily spend 1-2 hours most days traveling North or South thru Denver. Personally, I go to Kansas as all of the areas I know in CO aren't typically worth the time. I...

    CO Mountain Lion Ballot Initiative: Continuous Updates

    72% of the state votes have been counted and we have a 263K vote lead. I am showing that 50% of the votes have been counted in Denver and thus far Yes votes are 30K above the NO votes. Even if this trend holds we are still up 260K votes as of right now, so if we gave up another 30K Denver...

    CO Mountain Lion Ballot Initiative: Continuous Updates

    Now we know what it takes to beat this nonsense! We have to continue to educate our neighbors whom as a whole really don't necessarily care about hunting, but realize this is right that was trying to be taken away from us. Most importantly we now know if we band together as sporstman and...

    Hunt Talk Auction! **$4,705** Raised By Hunt Talk Members For "Wildlife Deserve Better!"

    This auction is fund raiser to fight the cat ban - Not an auction for bargains. Come on people - throw some money at these items!! I don't look at my $65 bid on 5A as overpaying for a $40 item. In all reality if I win, I am buying some game bags as a gift for someone and only donating $25...

    CO Mountain Lion Ballot Initiative: Continuous Updates

    Wow - I never thought Boulder could ever aline with some of my thoughts. Seriously this is good thing for us. If the Boulderites can even consider NO 127 we could very well defeat this horrid Proposition!! Boulder has always been Ground Zero for the anti hunter movement!

    Cats Aren't Trophies

    Well today was a good day, but a little disturbing - I earned us at least 3 votes supporting the Cat Ban, and hopefully more. I was handing out bumper stickers at the Hayden Gun Range early today and came upon a 3 youngerish gentlemen that said they were registered voters and asked them if...

    Sunrise Sunset Pictures

    Sunrise pic from a couple weeks back. Only lasted about 10 minutes, and then it was grey and drizzly. Still this is why I live where I live!

    Dealing with lead cow elk?

    When an elk barks- BARK Back. They don't know what you are usually, but they know a threat is in the area. Barking back identifies you as an elk and not the threat.

    Weird Hunting Traditions

    A traditional good ole nut fry the night before the opener. Over the years it has become harder to get fresh nuts, so one of our hunting buddies had a great idea of hitting up the vet whom did work for a buffalo ranch. He was all proud and we were stoked to try the buffalo nuts until we...

    Calf Mortality After Cow Dies

    I will typically take a yearling or calf if I have a cow tag. My father said if you shoot a calf you only kill one elk, but if you shoot a cow then you will be killing 2 elk as she is most likely pregnant by rifle season. Makes sense to me and there would no guarantees the calf would survive...
