    Elk Rifle

    I took a buddy on his first elk hunt and we spent a lot of time shooting out to 300 yds. We then proceeded to work into a nice bull opening morning and he killed him at 19 yds in thick timber. After that experience, I’ll always lean towards having some room on the low power end. I personally...

    Final Gear List for Colorado

    All the elk will be blown out from wherever they are about 30 mins into legal shooting light on opening morning. I would use your days prior to season to find the places that they will go, not the place they currently are. My experience in that area is that hunter pressure is extremely heavy...

    How Much PTO Do You Have?

    I wish y’all could’ve put what your jobs were or at least what field they were in so I could be sending in some resumes.

    Why so light?

    I went on my first elk hunt with the same rifle I’ve used most of my life, a BAR in 7mmRM. My employer bought me a Christensen ridge line as a “bonus” and I took it the following year. Not sure if it’s the weight, or if I just don’t like the ridge line, but if I were hunting during rifle season...

    Colorado unit 11+

    Wear lots of orange and a ballistic vest for good measure. Lots of old guys at the trailheads listening for various radio traffic. I’d never seen that before.

    Scammer response to WTB threads

    I almost had one get me this week. I asked for the old picture/name/date and he sent me a picture of a drivers license that was almost perfect. Looks like he’s already deleted his profile so I’ll post it. It’s sad because he probably stole this poor guy’s identity.

    WTB Jetboil

    Anyone have a Jetboil they aren’t using? Looking to get one and I don’t really like buying brand new stuff.

    Hunt Quietly - Matt Rinella's new website and podcast

    I think it does matter because it leads to a greater harvest rate, which leads to a decrease in bag limits, and ultimately less opportunity. I’m not a biologist though so that may be an incorrect line of thinking.

    Hunt Quietly - Matt Rinella's new website and podcast

    I disagree with this to a certain extent. I don't see a problem with hunters being critical of each other. I can think of numerous examples in the brief history of North American conservation where hunters were probably critical of each other doing things that were legal at the time, but not...

    In case anybody was worried about land prices...

    ^^^This. And, in most counties in rural SC there are zero impact fees, taxes, etc. on the developers. It's going to be interesting to see what the landscape looks like in my neck of the woods when people are selling 40-100 acre parcels left and right for 1/2 ac + 2,000sf homes when there's no...

    Have you cancelled hunting plans due to fuel costs/inflation?

    I’m hoping the current administration will pull some funny business to artificially lower fuel prices in September for the upcoming mid-term elections. Yes, I know that’s selfish.

    Buying a truck in this crazy market?

    I ordered a ‘22 f-250 at the end of January and got it last week. STX package with the 7.3 gasser. Paid $50k for it. Didn’t really want to buy a new truck, but I couldn’t justify paying $40-45k for a used one. Thanks to one of the guys on here for the heads up about building them on the ford...

    How do you wake up?

    This is also part of my current strategy. 🤣🤣🤣

    How do you wake up?

    How does everyone wake up when they are hunting? I’ve used my phone but I get nervous about battery life. I’ve also used a timex wristwatch, but I get nervous about it working all of the time too. Just curious what others do.

    House Contractor Won't Finish - Repercussions?

    Not sure about the particulars, and it sucks you’re in this situation. Buuuut, was there a contract in place? Did you verify his license was in good standing with the state board? Ask for a copy of his general liability and workers’ comp? I go behind other ‘contractors’ all the time and bail...

    Drip edge on roof?

    Are you financing the house? If so, I’d point it out to the bank’s inspector when he comes for the pre-draw inspection. That should get it corrected fairly quickly. I haven’t worked with anyone yet who likes it when you put the brakes on their paycheck.
