    This^^^^ should be on top of everyone’s mind…. If you like hunting in ANY western state, this will effect you. Think it’s hard now, wait until Colorado is forced to do tag reductions….

    Signatures before dollars - How to support our community?

    If there was ever a state that bent over for non-residents, it’s the state of Colorado. They have historically given more non-resident tags than any other western state, and the runner up is not even close. It’s actually quite unbelievable the opportunity they provide sportsmen. On this...

    Quality bipods that attach to a sling stud?

    This! ^^^ If there is a chance you hunt in a place where an off hand, short range shot is a possibility, or your doing a lot of walking, the ability to have a bipod on and off the gun in seconds is so nice. Harris is a great bipod, but man I hate how much goes into taking them on and off, and...

    Pack Stock For The Dedicated Mule Deer Hunter

    I think a big part of an animals temperament comes from how it was raised. From herd bound, to its ability to function alone, trust etc starts really early and can be very hard to remedy later, this is especially true with mules. For example, my best mule I own came green broke at the age of...

    Pack Stock For The Dedicated Mule Deer Hunter

    I’m a mule man myself and for a number of reasons, they are the only stock I will own. I think they are much safer, they just don’t like to get themselves in a bind or a bad spot… they just don’t slip and fall like horses, and that’s usually where serious injuries happen with equines. When a...

    Question for the 301 Level Deer Hunters From a 201 Guy

    On the business end it was a mixture of both. I ran both a gravel pit/mine and delivery company. So we were involved in the manufacturing, sales and some of the delivery of product. I started the business to be able to hunt “whenever I wanted” 🤣 boy was I wrong….. When I was gone hunting, It...

    Question for the 301 Level Deer Hunters From a 201 Guy

    “TIME” is definitely the most valuable thing in every aspect of life. Balancing it never ends I have learned 😂 I’m still trying to balance it all but I know looking back, I’ve learned some things as I approach 40 years old. Business, especially the building/growing process, while trying to...

    Question for the 301 Level Deer Hunters From a 201 Guy

    I base a lot of my decisions on how often I can get a tag. If I can hunt the unit every year, or regularly, and it has some sort of history of producing BIG bucks (might even be 10-20 years ago) I’m interested. As far as habitat, I hunt everything from high country, low country and everything...

    Is CWD the Imminent Doom for Hunting?

    CWD has been in many places longer than 20 years. And in all my research, I’ve yet to find a place that CWD has ended all hunting and populations. Like everything, much of it is blown way out of proportions by all sides. I think the truth is somewhere in the middle.

    Camp road water bars & snow plowing?

    The problem with crowns on a narrow road like you are describing is a snow plow is going to take the crown down almost every time he plows when it thaws or gets the sun on it…..a constant slope or the road draining to the inside of hill like suggested above would be best to keep you all from...

    Camp road water bars & snow plowing?

    My living has been maintenance and installation/construction of gravel roads, and snow removal. “Water Bars” or gravel “swells” can definitely be installed to get water off gravel roads while still allowing plowing. They do need to be moderate and gentle. Steep crowns can really help as...

    Your hunt will be fully guided. If you are willing to hike and work, you should be successful.

    How much wood for a week in the wall tent?

    I think a lot of guys don’t realize, All fire wood is not created equal. Burn times really vary, depending on wood species. It makes a giant difference. For instance- A Lodgepole Pine burns significantly longer and hotter compared to a Subalpine Fir. Both of these “pine” species can be found in...

    Stolen Swarovski in Kansas City- recovered!

    Swaro is really good. Call them and ask them to run the serial number before purchase. It takes no time and they usually give you a little information on the history.
