    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...

    Disabled Veteran Licenses

    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...

    NRA Board of Directors

    I have a friend on another forum who managed to get his name onto the ballot for the NRA Board of Directors. He is a down to earth type of person and managed to get onto the ballot by drumming up support the old fashion way by getting signatures on a petition instead of depending on the...

    Wolves

    Here is a article by a Denver TV station on the wolves. As a FYI, the purple area are drainage's where wolves have been tracked to not actual locations. So if a wolf is trotting down along the Continental Divide and happens to wander down the east or west side the map will show that drainage...

    Broken Stuff

    My Harbor Freight special floor jack had a blowout yesterday. But after 25 or so years with some pretty good use I guess it's about time. The bolt that holds the caster to the jack sheared off, and while I thought about just replacing the bolt I couldn't find all the ball bearings. I picked...

    That's what everyone says but for the most part non residents keep paying the higher fees.

    Possible Application Fee Increase Bill

    Ever since the Wyoming leglesature told them that they need to stand on their own as far as finances they have to just keep raising fees. Just the other day I was wondering when they were going to start requiring a hunting license before applying.
