    2025 Draw

    With my odds thins year I'll be looking at left over tags. I doubt that I can draw my muzzle loader deer tag three years in a row.

    Winchester XPR

    The one thing that I found with a composite stock is that they work. When I was up in British Colombia it rained on us 9 out of 10 days. A quick wipe down when we got back to the cabins was all that was needed until I got home. I would of hated to of had a wood stock rifle with me for those...

    Winchester XPR

    The last two rifles that I have bought are working rifles with composite stocks. I have also dragged both of these rifles through stuff that I'd hate to pack a beautiful wood stock through. But I have taken wood stocked rifles the same places, I remember having to lower my rifle down off of...

    Mule Deer Pics

    I looked at my camera last night and figured that I need to pull the photos off of it. Here is one of the bucks from January.

    Colorado's new 6.5% tax on guns, ammo & gun related parts.

    From what I understand there is already a lawsuit filed on this. On another note Polis signed the "assault weapon" training bill today

    NRA Board of Directors

    To finish this one off, John got enough votes to be placed on the board. Overall the reform group got 19 onto the board out of the 28 that ran.

    Utah's Proposed Fee Increases

    I'm sure that you know how a number of state wildlife divisions work. The Utah Legislature just set a ceiling and then the Utah DWR would set the prices. What the DWR did was to set the price at where they did to enable them to be able to raise them without having to go back to the...

    Every time that I see a new post on this thread I think that is one of the spam post about alleviating back pain. :LOL:

    Possibility of Solving Chronic Back Issues

    Good luck with it. I have found that one of the hardest things to do is to get a Dr to actually listen to you about a problem. I fought with gout for close to 30 years before it was actually diagnosed and I was able to get the medications to take care of it. I had multiple blood test along...

    Utah's Proposed Fee Increases

    Well, the sky isn't falling like a lot of internet sleuths predicted. But there are increases for the non residents in Utah. Copied and pasted from a news release: Hunting and fishing fees for nonresidents will be increased, as follows: Nonresident hunting, fishing and combination...

    Wolves

    Here is the latest map on the drainage's that the wolves have traveled through. It doesn't show where the one entered Wyoming to feast on some sheep and managed to get itself shot. I did report what I am pretty sure was a wolf that was killed on I-70 just west of the town of Parachute. I...

    With all the fear mongering going on with all the YouTube videos and other postings, if they would of read the bill as I went back and did you'll see that the bill just establishes a maximum amount that can be charged and nothing else. It'll be up to DWR to either raise the cost of tags a small...

    Colorado Anti’s at it Again

    The way that I see it the problem is outside groups that think because of the high liberal leaning population of Colorado that they can get these things to be voted in. Much like the wolf campaign, it was all outside groups that pushed it. This also appears quite a bit like the initiative that...

    Well, if you have been snoozing this is just to let you know that it is time to put in for Utah. I just got done with mine for a deer tag for the HAMS hunt, pronghorn, and bison. This may be my last year for the bison, the point creep stays just ahead of me and I'm not getting any younger...

    Utah's Proposed Fee Increases

    I have 25 bison and 11 pronghorn points. This may be my last year putting in for them if much of a increase happens. I wasn't happy a few years ago when bison went from $1500 up to where it is now at $2400

    Utah's Proposed Fee Increases

    I did some reading on the bill itself. From what I read the DWR can raise the fees to this level and not beyond. So now any increase will be in the hands othe DWR. But we all know what happens when you give the kids unlimited access to a full cookie jar.

    Corner Crossing Legalized

    That's what takes court cases so long, there is a process that has to be followed and it takes forever to do it.
