    CO Early rifle wilderness deer help! What to do?

    Moving the dates back really hurt some of these early rifle hunts. I always had a plan to do one of these hunts but now just waiting and doing other hunts in different states. But there is something special about being above the treeline hunts bucks

    No longer hunting?

    I am hoping that over the next few as the kids grow up and leave the stresses of being a dad will decrease and will get that fire back. My wife is great and is all for me going. I am hoping that the ages of 50-70 will be my hay day

    New Mexico

    Figured since I am putting them in for some other hunts might as well add elk and take a swing for the fences. We should be hunting deer in Utah this year and maybe OTC Colorado. But maybe luck will be on their side.

    5 degree bag in 60 degree weather

    I am in the same boat. Going to start doing some winter hunting trips. Pretty much from what I have gathered is to get two bags and call it good. I am planning on doing the WM for winter and get a cheaper bag for warmer weather and upgrade down the road

    Determining boot quality

    I like a leather boot on the taller side. Now with that I has a pair of Solomans I wore for a year that felt like tennis shoes. Great feel but trashed less than a year. They did send out a new pair under warranty that I have yet to break in .

    Wyoming with 5points

    All depends on what value you place on animal size and hunting pressure. If they are not that important then any zones that required 3-4 pts last year will work.

    How many points do I need for a decent hunt in WY?

    My group is sitting at roughly a 5pt average and will start looking at units. We have some youngs that we have been waiting on to go. But point creep is no joke and will not be slowing down anytime soon. We have to find a way to increase herds if the non resident as any chance moving forward...

    How many points do I need for a decent hunt in WY?

    Are you willing to do the special or stay in the general.

    Stop it. We don't need this anymore.

    Hunting pressure and getting tags these days is getting rough. I wish I started about 10 years before I did with out of state hunting. Now I am hoping that someday things will swing the other way. If it doesn't I feel for the younger kids trying to get a tag.

    Little Pet Peeves

    Took a couple friends hunting this weekend and knocked over a few pigs. I supplied the guns and ammo and at the end of day was putting everything away and noticed I did not get all my brass back. Now I have ammo boxes with missing brass. I love seeing a clean ammo box completely full. I know 1st...
