    E-Scouting for CO Bear

    Going on my first beer hunt this coming fall for bear, what am I looking for as far as terrain goes? What elevations should I be mostly focused on? I know scrub oaks are important to find, is there any way to identify a scrub oak on mapping systems?

    Hermosa Creek

    I am considering a hunt in Hermosa Creek Wilderness area, my main concern is pressure. I’ve read in some relatively outdated threads that it is ate up with hunters. Hikers and such are not of too much concern as I don’t plan to be near a trail head. Would appreciate a little input.

    CO Fall Bear

    Have you hunted them with a bow before? That’s what I plan to take as of now, I am considering rifle but I know if I kill something with a rifle I will just wish I had done it with my bow.

    CO Fall Bear

    Plan to embark on my first bear hunt this September in CO. What are some tips to help me find some bears? I know they will be wherever the food is which from what I've read I'm mostly expecting them to be in berries and acorns. Are there certain elevations/areas where these foods will be most...

    Fall CO Bear or AZ Coues

    I am wanting to do my first western hunt, did not draw any tags so I'm resorting to the OTC option. I have narrowed it down to coues or bear, I know both of these present their challenges especially considering it will be archery. What are some things to consider while I'm trying to determine...

    First Backpack Trip

    I’m planning on going on my first backpack hunt this fall. There’s still a handful of items I am still in need of. So I am seeking some advice as these are pretty important items. Which Garmin Inreach model do y’all recommend and why? Water purification, what are y’all’s go to systems? I...

    Saddle Systems

    Well I’m sure hanging any stand in a mesquite isn’t recommended but I haven’t fell out yet. While I may want to have a stick or two handy I’ll probably just rely on climbing them, only need to get up to 6-8ft. All I need is to get out of their line of sight. Im definitely considering used, what...

    Tents and Sleep System

    I am looking to do my first backpack hunt this coming fall and would like a pretty versatile system. I would like to find something as close as I can to “do it all”. Whatever I purchase now will probably be all I use for the next few years. As far as weather conditions go I will be hunting...

    Saddle Systems

    I am considering getting a saddle system, I know little to nothing about them. What are some affordable options? I do not plan to live out of it, I do a lot of ground hunting considering the type of terrain and vegetation around me. Most of the time when I am elevated I have a tripod or ladder...

    NM & Arizona Fall Bear

    Considering an attempt at New Mexico or Arizona fall bear as I did not draw any tags. What are y’all’s experiences with those states? I’m not one to shy away from a rifle but archery is definitely what I would prefer regardless of the challenges included with it. I have no experience bear...

    Archery Mule Deer SD

    I would love to kill a 180” deer just as much as the next guy but my expectations are not nearly that high. I’m just trying to get my feet wet with the hopes of tipping something over mature, any deer will suffice for me.

    Archery Mule Deer SD

    Hoping to draw a non-res archery mule deer tag in SD for this coming fall. I am more drawn to the badlands area just because it is country I have yet to see. Can I expect to find decent herd numbers? I assume there aren't as many in the badlands as the NW corner based on harvest data, or is that...
