    Mule Deer coming back to or frequenting a “rub line”

    My experience with muleys is they are nothing like whitetail. They rub their velvet in sept then for the rut they follow the does. Seen bucks hang out in common areas but dont see them rutting like whitetail do running rub lines and scrapes. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Different bullets for cow elk

    Agree, I don’t understand it, you want to drop The elk so the idea is to shoot the smallest caliber legal so you can make rushed follow up shots if needed? Here take this tack hammer and go re roof this house, it won’t be as good and quick as a roofing hammer but you can swing it way more times...

    Habit information

    There’s no rhyme or reason, there’s no cut and dry rule, best resource is getting out in the unit you are hunting and learning the animals there. Bucks follow the doe’s when the rut starts, they can be on any slope that has food, water and shelter. You can read all kinds of books and listen to...

    Elk shot placement

    Ur shooting a rifle, more room for error elk lungs are huge, save the meat on the shoulders and shoot a bit further back. I absolutely hate when people shoot through the front shoulders, ur wasting meat, what’s the point of hunting ur gonna ruin meat on purpose. Avoid spine shots, neck shots and...

    CO Hunter Orange Question

    Standard safety vest is roughly 375 sq inches of material, a standard hat is 100-150 square inches of material, so with a standard vest and a minimum Cap ur 25 sq inches under required orange. I think the extra 50 square inches could be the bill of a ball cap which puts you over. Most wardens...

    CO Hunter Orange Question

    Technically it has to be as an outer garment, meaning vest or jacket etc. I’ve seen game wardens though write ti let’s to guys for it not being visible, they suggest an orange marker on the pack, I think the main concern is the hat being visible 360°. The guys I seen get tickets for their orange...

    Hit Bull High

    First guy that says hit the void needs to go sit in the corner and think about life. Bull is dead or dieing. 1. There is no void below the spine, where the Lungs sit in the cavity it is 100% occupied 100% of the time. That’s why the chest moves in and out, if there was a void the ribs wouldn’t...

    2024 Colorado Elk Elevations

    Why is it always “what elevation” really has nothing to do with temps, season anything like that. Rocky Mountain elk were originally plains animals, forced to the mountains by settlers. I hear it every year, I gotta be 15 miles into the back country and above 11,000 feet. There’s 40 head of...
