    What is a deer skull worth

    I didn't mean to come across as critical, but seriously, the dude who has you skull doesn't deserve a criminal charge. The cops have better things to do than chase your skull. Its not been very long. Everyone's schedule gets goofy during the holidays. Half the country has lost their mind...

    What is a deer skull worth

    It is a small time civil issue, not criminal, at least where I live. Also, if you care enough about the skull to try to get criminal charges filed on a guy for not answering his phone for a few days, maybe you should've taken it to someone reputable or maybe you should've done it yourself.

    Grilled Bacon-Wrapped Elk Tenderloin

    Man, putting ketchup on a tenderloin and cooking it to 150 degrees seems like a sin.

    Cold weather layering for guys that sweat

    Go with synthetics without lycra or spandex. I am far from a kuiu fanboy, but I haven't found anything that moves moisture as well as a peleton 118 under a Kenai. There is a huge difference between good stuff and UA. Also, listen to podcasts with Barklow. Newberg, Snyder, and others have...

    Drinking Water strategy

    I carry more. You may be dealing with high temps, low humidity, high elevation, and strenuous exercise. Why not carry have more capacity? I assume weight is not the issue or you would use a smart water bottle rather than a nalgene - smart water bottles are 5 times lighter than nalgenes...

    Anyone here deal with back pain???

    Voltaren is amazing stuff. I have a busted up knee - tore multiple ligaments and cartilage. Now I am bone on bone. It has made a huge difference. Regarding back issues, I broke c5 and c6 twenty-five years ago. It is fused and arthritic. Sometimes my neck doesn't hurt and sometimes it is...

    Peloton 240 or similar

    I would say that the 250 merino base layer is overkill for most September days in Colorado. I strongly prefer a 150 weight. Regarding the 240, it is nice, but I almost always find myself reaching for an active insulation piece rather than my 240. I thought that I would really appreciate that...

    My wife got me a bipod, davros, and bino adapter. It is under the Christmas tree though and I haven't messed with it. I will take it along on a buddys late season cow hunt right after Christmas. I will let you know how it works.

    Underwear- What, how many, how many days.... TP, Handi Wipes or Paper Towels....

    Wool blend boxer briefs for me. I dont take extra underwear, but my trips are usually a week or less. Plenty of TP. About a wipe per day. Also, I take a handful wysi wipes. They are compressed wipes that you hydrate in the field. They are surprisingly tough and only weight like 2 grams each.

    KUIU Customer Service Experience

    It seems like their CS is really hit or miss. Several years ago I had a a CS experience that was so bad that I decided to never buy from them again. It involved many phone calls and emails and never was resolved. My hunting partner had a couple of good experiences with CS recently. Maybe...

    Hunter charged with Homicide

    We really don't know if he actually took off his orange. The quote about that in the news article comes from the defense attorney that the shooter hired. The defense attorney had not even received the police reports at the time he provided the quote.

    Hunter charged with Homicide

    Exactly. He is charged with negligent manslaughter, which is a probation eligible class 5 felony. Literally the same level of felony as breaking into a car and stealing something or breaking into a payment box in a parking lot. He isn't even charged with reckless manslaughter, which is more...

    Hunter Fatally Shot Near Kremmling CO

    They are almost certainly not accurate or complete. The details in the article come from the defense attorney that the shooter hired. According to the article, the defense attorney hasn't received the police reports yet and even if he did have the police reports, he is not obligated to provide...

    Baby carrier

    Agreed, but the front carry is the only way to go until their necks get strong. Our babies got fat fast. So fat that our pediatrician called my wife's boobs Ben and Jerry.

    Vaccine?

    That's a really great outlook on life. . . Congrats on making the world a better place.

    Vaccine?

    Yeah, you are right. The problem with folks who are afraid of getting the vaccine is they are frequently the same people who appear to be afraid of being lonely and therefore refuse to change their habits and limit social interactions.
