    Searching For A Very Small Block & Tackle

    The title says it all. I am looking for a small block and tackle that will fit in a pocket or not take up much room in a pack. Years ago I saw them small enough that would almost fit into the palm of a large hand but I haven't been able to find any now. I have larger ones that will hoist a...

    Anyone Else Sitting In line For A Tag?

    Well, do we have anyone else sitting in line in hopes of snagging a tag this morning? I took a look at the leftovers yesterday and my second choice unit for deer muzzle loader has a single tag left over. My third choice has two tags. Who knows I might get lucky.

    Colorado Secondary Draw

    Well the list is out for the secondary draw and to my amazement I have found that there are tags available for the unit that I put in for on my third choice in the primary draw. Me smells something fishy going on here. As most know I couldn't believe that I didn't draw a deer tag in the...

    Darwin Award Winners

    I figured in this age of brilliant people that we needed to start a thread about their high intelligence and the things that they do that are caught on camera. I'll start it off with these scholars. And not to be out done by the gas in the plastic bag trick:

    I Found A OOP's Today

    Well, a few years ago I loaded up a lot of .340 Weatherby round with the 225 grain Barnes TSX bullets and I decided that I wanted to just switch them over to the rest of the 225 grain TTSX bullets that I have. So I pulled out the old hammer type inertia puller and went to work beating them on a...

    Mr. Monroe

    Well, after 18 months Mr. Monroe has come home. Thanks to the Governor of Michigan shutting everything down for a few months it put a crimp in the taxidermy business and my cape sat in a box on their delivery dock or somewhere up there for a few months. But he is home now and I'll find a good...

    2020-2024 Colorado Season Dates
