    Nosler Rifle Model 21

    I have a friend that is going to buy a new rifle for antelope, deer & elk. He likes the Nosler 21 and I don't know much about them. I looked online at Nosler's page and the rifle looks pretty nice. I also suggested 6.5 Creedmore for his caliber. He has plenty of $$$, so price is really not a...

    WYOMING 90/10 UPDATE | The best blog you'll read all year! - by Guy Eastman

    I sure don't agree with your opinion for here in the sw part of Colo. I have seen more really good, mature bucks in our wintering area then I have in several years. My take is leave the season structure alone and adjust the unit tags issued when there is a mature buck population problem. These...

    SW Colorado weather

    Looks like we are in for a banner year for moisture. I got a report a couple of days ago the Dolores River drainage has 130% of normal snow and moisture. At the lower elevations where I live (6750"), we had about 6" on the ground after about 2 or 3" had melted. Last night it started snowing and...

    January cow elk

    The first time I shot a late season cow elk (late January) many years ago, it kinda spooked me a little. When I was gutting it and a partially developed fetus came out, I was a little bummed. Since then I have taken a couple more and knew what to expect.

    WYOMING 90/10 UPDATE | The best blog you'll read all year! - by Guy Eastman

    I noticed that about 10 years ago. I was trying to draw a deer tag in a unit that was taking about 14/15 points to draw a buck deer tag in the regular draw. I watched it for a couple of years while being unsuccessful in the draw on the regular tag and the special was getting drawn with several...

    Colorado Parks and Wildlife App

    I have to make sure I opt out as I have a lifetime senior Parks Pass. I bought it many years ago just before they decided to drop the lifetime senior pass.

    Avian Flu

    Talked to my Cousin and he has got Ca F&G attention. Sunday afternoon he took about 10 snows that had died on the club over to Wister Hdqtrs and left them in front of the managers house. He also contacted the Feds who also have an office there.

    September? WTF

    I hear you! I got married (58 years ago) in October. But there were good reasons for picking the date and time. The day we were married was my wife's grandparents 50 wedding anniversary, my grandfather & great grandfather's and my wife's birthday. It has brought us good luck for 58 years and I...

    Avian Flu

    Just talked to my cousin in southern California about waterfowl hunting in the Salton Sea area (a prime wintering area). My cousins own my Dad's old duck club in Imperial Valley. It has great duck and goose hunting, especial snow geese. There is a big outbreak of avian flu in the snow geese...

    New Year’s whitetail hunt

    Is the jaw bone from the spike you killed? The teeth are really worn, probably contributed to the antler growth. How much fat did he have? I have also seen outlandish antler growth from bucks that are stags......no cajones.

    Early winter in Minnesota.

    Been cold down here in the 4 Corners area. Didn't get above freezing for a week, but now it is a lot warmer, was 18 last night. It has been sunny for the last 3 days. I actually sat in chair on my deck yesterday afternoon. I had a T shirt on and was barefoot enjoying the sunshine, it was 50...

    How did everyone's hunt go this year is it what you expected and are you going to change your plans for next year?

    Having back issues for the past several years, I had to get it fixed or probably really limit my future hunting, along with lots of other things. I had surgery in late August and recovery has been great. I drew a great elk tag here in Colorado and with the new Colorado regs concerning turning in...
