    Tightspot

    I have been using a tight spot 5 arrow quiver for 10 years. It works as expected and paired with the right rest and sight I can get it too close to the riser. For reference I am shooting a Prime Revex 4 and had to move the quiver out form the riser because the limbs were touching the nocks and...

    Mortons Neuroma

    As was said above you feet need to be able to spread out. I have gone to a wide toe box on my hunting and everyday shoes and boots. This seems to have helped for the most part. I do get flair ups occasionally when I do a lot of side hilling in a boot that doesn't have a stiff shank. The...

    Lakes in CO to hike into to fish

    As the above post states we have had a lot of our good spots have been blown out. Colorado is a very large state with a ton of lakes and fish-able water. You might start by narrowing down an area of the state you want to visit. What time of year are you planning for this trip? What is your...

    Hunting Birds in the Mountains Resources

    Burning boot leather is the best way to do it as others have said. What kind of birds are you after (Grouse, ptarmigan, Turkey, etc.)? Archery, shotgun, small caliber rifle (.22)? Assuming Boulder County Colorado. If this is correct feel free to reach out via DM and I can point you in the...

    Quitting Alcohol

    They say 30 days and 1000 nights, and its true. You can do it. Take it one day at a time, one hour at a time, one minute at a time. Remember nothing lasts for ever, but when you are in the middle of it, it can seem like it will. Remember this is for you first, and that improves your relationship...

    Quitting Alcohol

    Congratulations to those who are celebrating milestones in recovery. Monday, I celebrated 26years of recovery. We each have our own story on how we got to where we are in this journey. Over the years a few things seemed to have remained true. 1) I can’t change the past, I can’t control...

    How many preference points should you bank up for Colorado Archery Elk Primary Draw?

    Please note that I am only refering to OTC Archery tags not later Rifle OTC opportunities. To your point the outfitters are stating that public land OTC archery is having a negative impact for the later firearm season. In the last several years we have seen several OTC units become draw units...

    How many preference points should you bank up for Colorado Archery Elk Primary Draw?

    Word on the streets is that Archery OTC tags are going to be thing of the past here in Colorado. I would bet the first few years of no OTC tags thee will be a bunch of 0 point draw units available. If you are not already a member of the Colorado Bowhunters Association (CBA) I suggest looking...

    Elk calling tactics and tips: ElkNut App?

    Where do you plan to hunt Elk? I ask because the tactic will be different in different states. I do not have any experience with the Elk nut app, but do have his CDs and book. Paul is based out of Idaho (I Believe) and the tactics are a little different there than in my home state of Colorado...

    Jax Outdoors wont accept AR-15 FFL transfers!

    This was a decision made by the owner several years ago (I believe after the Aurora theater thing). This is the main reason I try to give my hard-earned money to other local shops that do not have such policies in place. I have also heard that Sportsman's warehouse (at least the one in...

    Hard cast bullets for Colorado?

    If you are carying this ofor personal defence, as stated above that is a lot of bang for colorado. If you are planning on using it as a secondary hunting firearm, you must use manufactured ammunition, you cannot use a handload in a handgun (according to the DWM's I have talked to). This is...

    Colorado backcountry turkeys

    I would agree that the front range is going to be crowded in most placed. The challenge with a back country hunt is depending on where you go there most likely wont be any turkeys due to snow. These bird will follow the snow line. A number of areas that I have seen turkey in the summer and fall...

    Two Weeks in the Colorado Elk Woods

    If I had to choose, I would choose the later half of the season. Fortunately I hunt the month of September. Early season tends to have more recreational (non-hunter) users in the woods with you. I have also found if there are cattle in the area that the cowboys usually have them moved out by the...

    Another CO guy looking for help/ hunting buddy

    Another thought would be attend one or more of the banquattes for the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, Mule deer federation, etc.. This is the time of the year these organizations are having a lot of their get togethers. You will most likely find like minded people at the banquettes.

    Another CO guy looking for help/ hunting buddy

    Hey Mike, Welcome to Colorado. Are you an archery, Muzzle loader, or rifle hunter. The best bet would be to fins a local club you can shoot at and meet others. This will help you and others figure out if you mesh well before heading into camp. There is nothing worse than getting into camp and...
