    Kowa TSN-553 Review, By Luke Moffat

    I just bought a Kowa 553, haven’t received it yet but will report back what I think of it. For my purposes, this will hopefully be my do all spotter out here in CO. This is the only spotter I own and I’m guessing it will be an awesome scope for mule deer, elk and antelope. If and when I do draw...

    Kowa 77 vs Swarovski ats 65

    Good point, I read it as “straight body only”, so no angled version. Thanks for catching that Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Kowa 77 vs Swarovski ats 65

    FYI, right now on DVOR they have the Kowa TSN-774 straight body for a pretty killer deal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Kowa 77 vs Swarovski ats 65

    Because birders are fanatical about optics and dig deep into the specifics. Hunters are the Ford vs. Chevy vs. Dodge type and tend to be fanboys without looking into the details. Glass technology has come a long way and there are a handful of contenders making equal if not better glass than...

    New Mexico Elk Draw Thread

    Didn’t draw either. Wasn’t really expecting to anyways. Always exciting to log in though and be crushed by the all red Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Kowa 553 vs ATS 25-50x65

    I am literally in the same spot, and I think I will be going with the Kowa 553. Just curious, since the Kowa doesn’t have the ability to rotate left or right, do some of you prefer straight over the angled? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    1 state to hunt

    Head for Wyoming. General tag right now is 3 points, so that falls into your 3-5 year plan. Also apply to New Mexico since it’s 100% lottery and you’ll probably have one of the best elk hunts in your life if you draw. That’s the two states I apply and buy points in, and Colorado, but I live here...

    Gunnison CO public lands closed

    Maybe the Texas Attorney General should focus on his own backyard and keep up with his governor: Excerpt from Gunnison County in response to Texas AG “Unconstitutional” letter [emoji38][emoji2357]. “Finally, we note that by executive order, the Governor of Texas has imposed freedom of...

    Gunnison CO public lands closed

    Gunnison resident here. My wife works EMS in town and since she is 7 months pregnant right now has been taken off the ambulance and switched over to the emergency planning department. To say that she works long and stressful hours trying to keep our county ahead of this Covid-19 ordeal is an...

    4 Dog Stove Question

    So I’m considering buying a 4 Dog Stove for a Luxe Megahorn 8 person Tipi. This will be my base camp setup. Question I have, will their smallest stove (2 Dog DX) heat the Megahorn Tipi well enough? The dimensions of the tipi are 15’x15’, and the stove is saying it’ll heat a 10’x10’ pyramid tent...

    Serious question from a new comer...

    In archery season not so much, as temps can be in the high 70s mid day, like it was this last season. Best thing to do is find a good flowing creek ad try to hang it above or near the creek, as there will be cooler temps there. If you can find a nice dark creek to hang meat, and you have killed...

    Serious question from a new comer...

    You’re not crazy for going alone. You seem like the type who figures things out and has a plan vs. diving off the deep end. Lots of good info above. One thing I did not see mentioned and I see it happen more often year after year, do not camp where the elk are. Sounds simple but it amazes me...

    Poseurs and Ballers....

    I figured it out! It’s middle of winter and hunting seasons have pretty much closed all over. The boomers are sitting alone in their retirement watching the millennials on YouTube kill more animals than they ever did, all while wearing flat brims, chugging Monster Energy mixed with MTN Ops and...

    Where would you move to out west if you could?

    I agree with you. When you live in a desirable place it gets noticed, especially with all the social media nowadays. I used to think Sunset Magazine was bad with their “Best Town in the West” articles. But to blame Californians for wanting to move someplace for the same reasons YOU wanna move...

    Where would you move to out west if you could?

    I moved from Oregon to Colorado about 3 years ago. Moved in the middle of the mountains 4 hours from the front range, no Californication here. Any of the states you mentioned are being hit by the mass exodus of California, Idaho being number 1. I have friends who live in Idaho and Flathead...
