Headed out in the morning for Colorado. Looks like lots of snow has hit should make the deer hunting good and the traveling interesting.



My hopes are high but trying to remain realistic. Used 6 points for this tag more than I've ever used for any tag in Colorado. I suspect I'll see a ton of small deer and then eventually shoot one of them but I'd love to hang my tag on a mature mule deer. Only ever killed forky's and a small 4x4 as far as mule deer go.

Good luck hope you find a good one!

Camp is all setup and scouting is going well. Have seen probably around 30 deer this evening including 2 4x4s one being a older deer. The weather definitely has then moving. I'm very optimistic so far gonna check out couple other places tomorrow but plan A is looking promising.

Probably seen upwards of 50 deer this morning. Went up high early that got a bit sketchy and no deer. Almost as soon as I came back down ran into these guys. Ones a older 3x3 I'd love to hang my tag on. Watched a forky get rejected by some does and a younger 4x4 absolutely birddog a doe.

Been a long day gonna break camp tomorrow and head home. Will do the whole write up when I get home. Had something happen that's never happened to me on a live animal before. Went to send my first round and get a big Click. I assumed I must have short stroked the bolt so I worked the bolt and hear a shell hit the ground. Looks like a light strike? Wondering if snow and below zero weather may have caused it.

Yah you had time to post those two pics but not the deer....da phuck man!

Exact same thing happened to me on my bull this year. I'm guessing the firing pin was slightly frozen for mine. Similar conditions.

Anytime now.....

Anytime now.....

Slept half of Monday and had to go in to work today to put out some fires. But taking tomorrow off and gonna climb into a stand on my place the ruts getting going here. Will finish my Colorado hunt write up tomorrow after the morning hunt. Unless I run a arrow through something then just more excuses .
