    Boats

    B.O.A.T. = bring on another thousand $. Very much fun, can be expensive, kinda like skiing. You can tell when you are ready for skiing when you flush a $100 and it doesn't make you want to dive in after it.

    Private Land Recommendation

    Call Rocky Pappas at Nine Mile Guest Ranch. He has ranching for wildlife property as well as private regular season hunts. They do very well. Be little careful in your search in the Meeker area as there are a couple of really poor outfitters that are scammers with wonderful web sites.

    To Outfitters: Help me to be a better client

    Shipping antique shotguns?

    UPS will take them as antiques. They will ask you about them and just say they are antiques. I learned this the hard way shipping ML rifles......they can be shipped this way.

    Fuel prices to come down.

    There is a report I just read that the released reserve will mostly go to China & India. Yep Brandon is a real genius. Trump is overbearing, rude, immoral and full of himself BUT he does understand what needs to be done...I will take that as a leader. I just wish he could learn to control his mouth.

    Colorado Outfitter

    Try Garvey Brothers in Nucla CO. Gotta ask, have you ever hunted on private ground vs public ? I quit hunting public years ago because of a number of reasons. I am a native of Colorado with 32 elk taken. Are you looking for a trophy or just a good experience with a high rate of success ?

He pulled over and saw it rolling around behind his pick-up in his rear view mirror. He got a big wrench from behind his seat and got...

    Guided hunt fee structure

    I think another aspect is that after watching outdoor hunting shows our expectations are out of whack. As far as cost go there are a few good outfitters in Colorado that have good elk hunts for around $7-8, 000 but the accommodations are rather sparse and the bulls are 2 1/2-3 1/2 year old rag...

    Guided hunt fee structure

    There is an "outfitter" based out of Meeker CO that claims his average mule deer is150-180"...He also claims a high shot opportunity...he has a very impressive web page....and he is a lying SOB. Look at the bucks in his gallery......nearly none over 150" and few of them. Buyer beware and do your...

    Calling all llama owners

    I am not sure. The last I heard his cancer was in remission and he was in business as usual. If you have a sincere interest I would just call him or Kirsten. They are great people.
