    What to do? (308)

    Can’t go wrong with either rifle. I have NF on my long range rigs, but have grown really fond of the swaro glass on hunting rigs. Their 3-18 is awesome for a hunting rifle.

    Y’all think Ammo is bad? - EDIT: Baby Formula Shortage, Rokslide is AWESOME

    Heard about the shortage on the news, and out of curiosity I checked the two stores closest to my office. Walmart shelves were bare. Safeway, about a half mile from Walmart, had fully stocked shelves.

    Colorado Preference Point Focus Group

    Not with the weighted point animals. With weighted points, you need the minimum of 3 to enter, then you are assigned a random, computer generated number. That number is divided by your weighted points to move you up in the line. The challenge is that with the random number, you could have 15...

    Colorado Preference Point Focus Group

    I did have what I thought was a genius idea about halfway through the meeting and wanted to see what the group thinks. Why not do a reverse of the Hybrid Draw? Allocate a percentage of tags that only go to the highest point holders. That would help take some of the highest point holders out...

    Colorado Preference Point Focus Group

    Went to the meeting last night. 4 CPW staff (one field supervisor, the rest were office folks from planning division), and 6 group participants. Format was basically introductions, overview, then we were asked to toss out ideas to improve the draw process. We were told to keep in mind 4...

    Nalgene bottle or Hydration Bladder or Both?

    That's what I've gone to as well. Non insulated Kleen Kanteen with a human gear cap cap and a couple of turns of Gorilla tape around it. I have the worst luck with bladders. They tend to freeze, or leak from the bag, or the hose comes disconnected, I've set them down just right and the whole...

    Owners of a Polaris Sportsman 570

    Make sure you take a look at the oil filter location. I had an '11 Sportsman 550 and the oil filter was the only thing underneath not protected by a skid plate. Packing out a bull and a fat hunting companion up a rocky hillside, I unknowingly punched a rock through the oil filter and ran it...

    Waders for Alaskan float moose hunt

    Also keep in mind that if your buddy gets out on one side of the raft it doesn't necessarily mean you can safely get out on the other side of the boat. A buddy of mine learned that the hard way and earned himself a (REDACTED) River Swim Team T-Shirt.

    SO stove burn-in

    I flip my stove pipe, and just burn until the whole thing turns red hot.

    I think this is a really interesting idea!

    The only argument I’ve heard against averaging points in a group is “someone’s going to put in their grandma for 20 years, etc” Is anyone on here opposed to averaging group points?

    CO Unit 3 Deer

    I filmed an out of state truck stop by some private land, two guys step out, one with an orange hat, one with no orange. The one with no orange stood leaning against the truck, and shot a buck on that private land. I reported him to the warden, and showed him the video, including both dudes'...

    The focus group will address both.

    You are correct. I read past that for some reason.

    I'm also interested in the possibility of reducing the time from the application to the publishing of the draw results. That would give people a better opportunity to plan their fall. It would also bump up the time to pay for the tag or release it back into the leftover draw.

    Interesting. Would you think that leftovers picked up should burn the points it would have taken to draw them? I know it sucks to lose the points, but if you get the tag in the primary draw, you would have lost them...

    This is one of the things I really believe would help. It will get beginners in sooner instead of just creating more point collectors, and it will keep some guys like yourself from maxing out points while waiting.

    I've been invited to join a CPW focus group in a few weeks. "Your focus group will discuss the topic of preference points. The purpose of these focus groups is to hear from resident and nonresident big game hunters about challenges and potential solutions they see with CPW’s license...
