How many points you got? I know the one big river bottom public unit in Colorado can be decent, but it amazes me how many points it takes to pull a rifle tag there. I used to pull this unit every year then every other year, now it’s every 3 or 4 for archery, and I think it’s upwards of 20 points...
When I was researching some spots this year in Wyoming, I found this 10,000 acre piece of public that was completely boxed in by a few thousand acres total of private. I looked up the private landowner and found their ranches website. They were proud of the their 15,000 acre ranch where they...
I just ordered a 6mm ARC barrel and plan to build a new AR for myself and my kids, primarily as a deer and antelope gun, and to play around with some long range shooting. I was going to try and stick to 100-110gr projectiles, depending on what gives the best accuracy and performance. Seems like...
That’s a really low probability shot, especially at 55 yards. The only thing in the rear ham that is going to be lethal is the femoral artery. And even when you cut it, it usually results in a fairly prolonged death, even if they bed up with 100 yards are so.
I’d say at 55yards that errs on the...
A lot of shocks now come with a lock out feature for this reason. When I was shopping for a new bike all the ones I looked at had that feature

I bought a Salsa Timberjack a few years ago and love it. With a cheap little trailer, it works great for flat land turkey and deer hunting, and I take up on the spring for bear hunting. It’s great for getting way back in on closed logging roads.
It’s a 2.75 plus bike, as mentioned above. I...
I’ve been wearing minimalist footwear exclusively for about a decade now. I can tell you, once you’ve become accustomed to them, there’s no issue packing out animals or backpacking long distances over rough terrain with heavy loads. I tend to elk hunt around tree line in some pretty gnarly units...
Hope they have figured out the grip on those Lems! I have a pair of Lems Boulder boots that I wear alot at work. I quit hunting in them because they can be downright dangerous due to the slick soles
I shot this little guy 2 days ago with a 1.5. This was the entrance, nicked the heart and cut through the plumbing. A giant blood clot sort of clogged up the wound but he didn’t make it 30 yards or so. This is the second deer I shot with them, I like them. I also use a tight spot quiver and...
My setup. I love hunting out of the smaller SUVs. I have a 4Runner now, and that replaced a Nissan Xterra. I have an old Army M101 trailer that I converted to somewhat of a mobile hunting camp/ utility trailer. It really fits my needs. If I were you I would look at either using the 4Runner as my...
I use both. The 145’s get used during elk archery season and warmer or higher exertion trips. The 200s get used in all my later season and colder weather hunts

A carbine length AR-15 chambered in 6mm ARC, 6.5mm Grendel, or 6.8SPC would be my choice for small child or new hunter. My son has taken quite a few deer and antelope with a 16” barrel 6.8spc. It really does a great job, has very minimal recoil, and potential follow up shots are easy.
I like...
I wear Xero shoes sandals all summer, and Merrel Trail Gloves a lot. The newest version of Trail Gloves are no longer as minimal as I like however. My latest running shoes are from Xero as well. Also have some nice leather shoes from Vivo, as well as the Tracker ESCs. Lems boots are good too for...
My first year in my Tracker ESC’s. So far I’m loving them. Last elk season I used Lems Boulder boots, and while they are comfortable, the lack of traction could get downright dangerous. The Trackers sole basically sticks to rock and slick surfaces though.
I’ve been wearing barefoot and...
If these are meals you dehydrated yourself, definitely toss them. Even in the best circumstances, shelf life is only 6 months or so. I wouldn’t take the risk regardless, just start over with things you know are good.
When I am making my own dehydrated meals, I add an oxygen absorber and I store...
oh well, lesson learned lol. I didnt even really think about it since I had transfered stuff, particularly AR-15 components to them in the past. Good thing I am not in any sort of hurry here
It was the Broomfield location, but he said it was a company policy now.. I shipped a lower to the Lafayette location a couple years ago and never even thought it would be an issue.
caveat, I do think there is a targeted and strategic push by the Democratic party to limit or eliminate the 2nd amendment. That said, it seems this type of stuff outside of legislation, is where we are losing our rights the fastest. Whether its credit card companies not allowing purchases...
OK, just venting a little. I recently ordered an Aero Precision upper/lower receiver set, and plugged in my local Jax as the FFL. I've purchased a couple guns online, and a previous AR-15 build a couple years ago, and used the local Jax as FFL with no issues.
I just got a call from them...
