Anyone have any good suggestions on a soft synthetic blaze orange hat for hunting? I absolutely hate wearing hats as they always make my head itch. However I picked up a synthetic hat from Free Fly and love it, very comfortable. It’s a mix of nylon and polyester but they don’t sell blaze orange...
Howdy folks, I have a job opportunity up in Cheyenne WY. As much as I’d like to become a WY resident, I’ve heard that it’s not a great place to live. My family and I live west of Denver (so I’m aware of the negatives to living in CO) and are thinking we could just move to Fort Collins and I’d...

Looks like Polis is trying to screw over hunters yet again. He’s attempting to put 3 anti-hunters on the CPW board.
I believe this link only works for residents of Colorado currently. Please fill out your info and it’ll auto send to your local rep...
Hoping some of y’all with good insight on the draw system can chime in. With CO officially moving from 65/35 to 75/25 for Elk, Deer, Bear, and Pronghorn, do you think CO residents will see a noticeable shift downwards in preference points needed to hunt the same units as previous years? As a CO...
Haven’t seen anything posted here yet. Anyone know if there is truth to CPW getting rid of OTC for 2024 for the Meeker Units? Believe folks were saying it was due to last seasons winter kill.
Howdy y’all, I currently have a Tikka T3x stainless in 308. I’m doing a bolt swap with another Rokslider from his 300WM. Looks like I just have to buy new mags and a bolt stop and I’ll be set on a magnum.
I’m planning on converting the rifle into a short and lightweight 6.5 PRC build that will...
Please delete if this isn’t the right way to do this.
Since it’s Day 1 of Shot Show I figured I’d start a thread for the 2024 Shot Show and allow folks to post whatever they see vendors introducing this year. I’m pretty interested in some AR15 suppressors, new image stabilizing binos, and...
Howdy fellas,
Was hoping to get some recommendations from y’all on a long range precision course I could attend and hopefully drive to prior to this coming hunting season. I’m out in Colorado and would be willing to drive to neighboring states as well. The only company I’m aware of is Modern...
Howdy folks, I'm looking at purchasing a smaller utility trailer (5x9/5x10 ish?) to haul my ATV for recreational purposes and additional gear during hunting season. I'm on the front range so was hoping some of you Front Range folks would have some specific trailer recommendations and dealers...

Howdy y’all,
Back again for some more advice. Scenario:
Was deer hunting 2nd rifle off a trail leading to some wilderness around 9.5k feet elevation after the big snow storm in Colorado. Saw 3 bulls bedded just off the trail down into an Aspen drainage and they slowly wandered off (didn’t seem...

Howdy y’all, hoping for any opinions on choosing the Davis Go Tent vs Kodiak Canvas Deluxe; ignoring price difference as I know...
Howdy y’all,
I have a 2nd rifle tag in Colorado (Oct 28 - Nov 5). This will be my first time hunting 2nd rifle in CO. The unit ranges from national forest at 12k ft all the way down to BLM at 7k feet. I’ve never deer hunted during this time of year and really have no idea what to expect. So...
Fellas,
Need some guidance on picking a season to hunt elk for this year.
Background:
I’m a Colorado resident going on his 4th year of elk hunting. Been unsuccessful every year. First 2 years I did first rifle in the Grand Mesa Units and Meeker. Then I tried archery OTC near Montrose (I...
Howdy y’all,
Background:
My wife and I live on the front range of Colorado but are originally from Georgia and we are not city people at all. My wife is more rural than I am and is in desperate need of owning a house with more than .1 acre (current house). We love being out west and will...
Howdy y’all,
I’ll be backpack hunting 1st rifle elk in Colorado around 9.5k-10.5k feet in elevation. I currently have an older Neo Air Xlite (r=4.2) and a relatively new WM Terralite 25F bag. Staying in an older 2P Nemo 3 Season tent.
My question is, do y’all think this is adequate for the...
