    New Mexico requiring quarantine

    I know several restaurants in NE New Mexico were opened back up to inside dining by last October. Still, must be tough when you get shut down for months.

    Where is everyone?

    Definitely noticeable, the couple other forums I’m on seem to have a decrease as well. But if anyone has any Colorado OTC honey holes they’d like to share I’m all ears!

    Social Media

    This forum and two or three others. I dropped FB & Twitter because they’re practically run by a bunch of commie’s😉

    Oregon’s Latest Stupidity

    How in the hell does this help anyone? Telling kids they’re not worth educating… just another pathetic sad story to add to our dysfunctional education system.

    Well it finally happened......I destroyed a gun.

    Good reason to wear safety glasses (which I seldom do). A few years ago my dad blew up a M700 .223, blew hot gasses and debris into his face, but he wears glasses so he didn’t have any eye issues. Same situation, he likely mixed up powders. Appreciate you sharing and good reminder for us...

    Well it finally happened......I destroyed a gun.

    Wow! Glad you’re alright. Was it once fired brass?

    Monsoons in SW Colorado

    I’ve been in Crested Butte all week and there has been a lot of rain around here. There was a heavy down pour in town today as well as about an inch of pea size hail.

    Kids Getting ready!

    I have always heard that it’s a bad idea to dry fire and I’ve always been a tad apprehensive about it. But in the last couple years I have dry fired several of my rifles hundreds if not thousands of times without issue. That said, I just might try the silicone and red paint just for peace of...

    Kids Getting ready!

    Season is getting closer, maybe time to start talking about actual hunting again (not that Covid and 90/10 haven’t been fun discussions). About 9 weeks until my son’s NM deer hunt and a little over 90 days until my daughters CO deer hunt. Been raining just about every afternoon down here so...

    What kind of hunter...

    Funny, I consider myself an “Elk Hunter” first even though 90% of my hunting time is spent hunting whitetails and quail on flat ground a thousand miles from elk country - and I’ve killed some really big whitetails. I’m fortunate to be able to have access to prime ground in south Texas but I’m...

    Who else is...

    3 miles jog/lunge/walk with the kids this evening, heading to the gym now for upper body. My kids are very excited about their mule deer hunts this year so they’re pushing fat dad to get back in shape.

    Question...Starter Gun For Kids?

    Hard to beat a 22 to start with, I started my son with 22’s at 4 or 5 yo. Some scoped, some iron sights. My son mostly likes shooting my old Marlin Model 60, on a good summer Saturday he would go though 3 or 4 hundred rounds back when ammo was available.

    Colorado 2nd Draw Results posted Tomorrow

    My 14yo daughter pulled a Gunnison basin 2nd rifle buck tag today - she is walking on cloud 9 at the moment. Works out perfect because I was already planning on hunting that unit & season for otc elk.

    My 14yo daughter so far has received unsuccessful emails for bear and Antelope this morning. Nothing on deer or elk yet

    Wyo Task Force - Nonres Comments!

    I don’t think the revenue argument really has much merit for any state - they could double or triple the NR price and still sell every single NR Moose, Sheep, and Goat tag every year and a pile of preference points to boot. I wouldn’t say I’m in favor of 90-10 since I’m a non-resident, but I...
