    Worst thing to ever happen to elk hunting

    Agreed, hunter numbers keep trending up where I hunt, making the elk that much harder to hunt, I see fewer elk every year starting 7-8 years ago and many more hunters. I don't understand where there are fewer hunters, but I don't research it either. I don't enjoy hunting elk based on where...

    Rifle Season Sidearm

    Why not just use your rifle to "handle" the situation?

    Have you killed an elk in the rain?

    It rarely rains where I hunt in CO during 2nd rifle, BUT, one year it was heavy overcast and light rain on and off all day, and the elk were out in a park I key on at 2pm....I've never seen them out near that early, ever. So I pray for a light rain and heavy overcast now, but haven't had those...

    RS members who just buy and sell

    How do you check feedback and someone's profile? I can't see how to do it.

    7mm STW: Nosler Trophy Grade 175 grain Accubond

    On a side note, not that it matters, but I don't believe the BC of 0.672, I believe that to be some serious marketing bs.

    Llama king Beau Baty - Cancer

    Donated.....I've been in his shoes, helps like hell when you don't have to worry about how you'll pay bills. He's on a lot of Randy Newburg videos, seems like a nice guy. The only hunting videos/shows I watch are Randy Newburg ones, can't seem to stomach any others.

    I want to see your smallest legal bull

    Yep, any legal bull in CO is the one I take, can be damned hard to lay eyes on one as evidenced by the overall success rates of around 20%. After killing a few raghorns, thought I was ready for trophy hunting.....after a couple years of eating tag, I decided I’m not cut out for trophy hunting...

    I want to see your smallest legal bull

    Isn’t a brow tine the 1st tine up from the base? You make it sound as if any tine on the lower half of the beam could be declared the brow tine. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I want to see your smallest legal bull

    I would’ve let that walk since it looks like a 3x3 with one inch brow tines....are the 6 inch brow tines those points about a foot from the base? What are those one inch tines at the base? Those aren’t brow times? Just trying to learn, legal bulls can be hard to come by, don’t want to let a...

    I want to see your smallest legal bull

    I've killed a small one or two, I'd have to dig really deep to find the pics, they're really old, all CO bulls with 4 points. Anymore, I wish for the smallest legal bull on the mountain, so it's easier to deal with.

    AK requiring clean covid test with 72 hours of arrival

    Saw this on this thread - https://www.rokslide.com/forums/threads/ak-test-negative-or-stay-home.180046/ Basically, you have to present a clean covid test that was done within the last 72 hours, when you arrive at the airport. Wonder if other states will go to this, I would be surprised if they...

    Post-rut/late season glassing question

    If I see cows I'll watch them for 2-3 days waiting for a legal bull to show.

    Lasik vs PRK Surgery

    Wow...there's a wide range of reactions...but....makes most sense to do what is in your best interest long term, short term cost/pain be damned. I had lasik done 25 years ago, some of the best money I've spent, I still have 20/20, but I know others who's vision has deteriorated...if that happens...

    5 in a cab

    Nope, I'm laughing along too, rokslide has turned seriously funny what with this and the corona virus memes thread. Also, the threads where some first time elk hunter is going to backpack in 5 to 7 miles, those make me laugh thinking of the reckoning that is coming.

    Critters and Such on the Grand Mesa

    I know it sucked for you, but you make it sound really funny....I always thought cows were more considerate than to trample your camp and crap on it...who knew
