Hi folks,
I joined this site and essentially began my western hunting career back in early 2024. Thanks to my dad, I have been purchasing preference points in CO for the past 3 years in preparation for my first hunt. I scoured GoHunt, OnX, and the CPW website to learn as much as I could ahead...

First timer, headed out with my dad and some good buddies. I finally heard enough of my my dad’s stories that I decided it was time to start experiencing it myself! School and work timeliness always held me back but finally at 31 I have my work and family life set up to allow me to do this. Good...
As most have said, I listen when I’m commuting, sometimes working in the woodshop, and sometimes while rucking or doing steady state cardio. I enjoy learning about science so tune into The Drive and Huberman Lab. I listen Rogan when he has on interesting (to me) guests). Hunting wise I don’t...
