    Sounds like a cool hunt in more ways than the weather. I love that fox.

    Update on Colorado Regulation Changes for 2028

    I can hear the yelling already when someone with 1 or 2 points draw a tag for what used to take 20. I'm used to this type of system since it is what Utah uses for the most part but it still doesn't help when you have been waiting 20+ years and someone comes in and draws the tag.

    Turkey hunting ?

    I quit putting in for my area since 99% of the turkeys during the spring season are on private "NO HUNTING" properties. I took a drive today and found 3 different flocks with some nice toms feeding in the pastures behind the signs.

    Selling of Public Lands.

    I'll have to say that for us that live and hunt here in the Western US is that we have been spoiled with unlimited access to millions of acres to hunt. Quite unlike our fellow hunters east of the Mississippi River where you need to purchase leases or pay landowners for the privilege to hunt on...

    Lightweight Boots

    High top tennis shoes. Problem anymore is that good and inexpensive don't go together anymore. I like Crispi boots. For light weight I've been wearing their Colorado's which are no longer made and were replaced with the Colorado II for around $380 but they have sales with 20% off at times.

    Colorado Hunting in 2025

    Going to see if I can draw my unit 44 muzzle loader deer for the third year in a row. Points for antelope and elk and then see about picking up a leftover tag for cow elk unless I decided go go with a OTC bull tag and hunt with a buddy down in unit 32. Wyoming will just be points again and...

    FREE - BLM Maps-Wyoming & Utah

    And here I thought that I had a buyer for all of mine including some Kings World topo maps on CD for Utah. In today's world of OnX paper maps are next to antique. But they are nice to spread out on a table where everyone can look at them along with marking them up with what you find instead...

    Helicopter Bear & Wolf Hunting

    The way that I read it when reports first came out on it back in January and it has been going on now for over 18 months. It was that the Alaskan Fish and Game department that conducted these hunts and that they were done in unit 17. From what I understand this unit was over ran by large...

    Colorado did sell a senior fishing license for $1 until one of our state leglesatures decided we needed to pay more, so they raised it up to $7

    Quail and Javelina

    I screwed up on this one as far as the pack out. If I would of just went 20 yards or so up the hill and then down the other side a couple hundred yards I would of been in a wash that I drive up and down all the time. But I ended up packing it about 1/2 a mile down the draw that I was in to...

    Disabled Veteran Licenses

    And just when you figure that the state government has gone to pot they do something nice. While it isn't much it does save you a few bucks each year.

    Snow!!!

    We've been getting a fair amount where I live. Naturally since I had to leave my truck and ATV down in Grand Junction due to a problem with it I really need the plow. I've shoveled more snow in the last few days than I have in quite a while.

    Quail and Javelina

    This year our hunt started out with some high expectations. We planning on doing some quail hunting for at least a day and perhaps a couple more since one of our friends had a dog and he was going to join us. The first day looked like it was going to be a good one. We hadn’t raveled more than...

    Quail and Javelina

    Well, day one is over and we didn't get any quail. It is hotter than we thought it would be here in Arizona and the quail were holding tight. It's so hot that the dog that is with us is running right past the covies as they hold tight. It's hot enough that he is having a hard time picking up...

    NRA Board of Directors

    He is the only one that I have ever had any interactions with, and I have never met him. But I read his mission statement on the petition that he started up to get onto the ballot and I liked it. The problem with the NRA like most other large companies or organizations is that they work on...
