    How to catch an untrapable mouse.

    Haha! I can empathize with the OP and his uncatchable mouse issue! The ending to my saga was indeed anticlimactic, but there is a noteworthy update… Over the last couple of summers, we only had a few and very isolated issues with rats in the garden; and I was able to quickly catch them using a...

    Why the NR HATE?? Let's fix it!

    Why the NR HATE?? Let's fix it!

    For what it’s worth, the Federal government provides funding to state colleges and universities by way of federal student aid, grants, and contracts. Yet, these institutions have in-state and out of state tuition based on a student’s residency as well as enrollment caps also based on residency...

    Denver Stock Show / Attendees & Colorado’s Anti Hunting Initiatives

    I obviously did, and said I could have missed a booth like that in my post. However, I’d still contend a lot more of a presence by groups that would represent the issues we are concerned about could make an impact at that event. We’re there any other groups like the CO Trappers Association...

    Denver Stock Show / Attendees & Colorado’s Anti Hunting Initiatives

    I realize we’ve seen a ton of discussions on this site regarding wolf reintroduction and anti-hunting initiatives in Colorado, but I feel compelled to create one more. Yesterday, my family and I went to the Denver Stock Show. For anyone who hasn’t been - in addition to the rodeo and livestock...

    Badger fights to the death.

    That must have been pretty cool to see. I don’t know if you’re aware, but badgers and coyotes have been known to cooperate while hunting. https://www.fws.gov/story/spotted-coyote-and-badger-hunting-together#:~:text=Coyotes%20and%20badgers%20are%20known,is%20beneficial%20for%20both%20species.

    Badger fights to the death.

    I had a video of me touching a badger’s head with the barrels of my shotgun, but can’t find it. The badger never didn’t anything more than snarl and hiss at me. I’ve also have a buddy that works for Northwestern Energy in MT, and him and a guy on his crew found a badger while they were...

    Badger fights to the death.

    I’ve come across many badgers while bird hunting and haven’t found them to be as vicious as their reputation proceeds them to be. Whenever i come across them, their first inclination is to try to retreat to a hole or they flatten themselves out and start hissing, but I’ve never had one chase me...

    No one who has posted in this thread is bashing Kifaru, are they?

    I envision him with a vein popping out on his forehead, hyperventilating, blowing bubbles out his nose while trying to compose a response to your post and others like it.

    I don’t have an Exo pack. You have a Kifaru rhino tattooed somewhere on your body, don’t you?

    …

    I don’t want to speak for you, but I think you could take your point further and contend that due to the hype a brand like Kifaru has on sites like this, guys with zero experience buy it because they don’t have to educate themselves or think critically. That same kind of thinking is why we have...

    …

    I’m sorry if you thought because I mentioned colors in your original post, that my post was somehow related to you specifically. That wasn’t my intent at all. My opinion on how people spend their money is irrelevant, but I do think there are some people out there who buy Kifaru that have no...

    …

    I agree with your point, but I still think some Kifaru addicts take it to an extreme. Brand loyalty is something all manufacturers aspire for, and if i find a product I like - I’m loyal to it - but some Kifaru guys on this site are absolutely combative and defensive over the brand.

    …

    I don’t mean to be contentious with this post, but I was always turned off by Kifaru due to some of their customer base. I just didn’t want to be associated with the guys who didn’t seem to be able to think for themselves and were/are rabid Kifaru fans who operate with blind loyalty. For what...

    Rogan/Hanes launch “elk blood” energy drink….

    Tomorrow is 3D league night… The bros wearing head to toe camo and reeking of Axe Body Spray are going to be stoked for this Elk Blood stuff.

    Hunting guide as a career ?

    I guided fishing for 20+ years. Some of that was part time after I had left guiding full time and went back to work with a corporate career, but I spent a lot of time rowing boats and wading rivers. When you become a guide, it will take you a long time to develop a repeat clientele that won‘t...

    Coffee Experts--Input Needed

    I am unashamed to say that I typically prefer gas station coffee and cheap domestic beers as opposed to either fancy coffees or craft beer. However, my wife likes fancy stuff and a couple years ago I got her a Breville Touch espresso machine. I think I dumped about $1200 bucks on it, but she...

    Are the any Ski Areas left out West that havent been ruined?

    I’m not trying to be dramatic, and sorry I touched a nerve. Good luck on fitting in wherever you end up.

    Are the any Ski Areas left out West that havent been ruined?

    To the OP, I don’t want to come across as a jerk, but asking for advice on undiscovered towns/areas so that you can move there is about the same as asking for someone to tell you a specific place to kill a big bull. Also, anywhere within close proximity of a ski area or rivers that have trout...
