As a former guide, I can tell you that most of us really relied on tips. Guide wages are fairly low in general and we put a lot of wear on our personal equipment and vehicles. Tip what you can and what you think the guide deserves, show appreciation, and you will make a friend. Most guides...

Shooting my bow seriously now... Elk tag in pocket changes focus. What virus?

My son and I picked his geese up today. He was super excited. He sat and stared at them for over an hour.

I have heard a lot with three were successful. No odds posted yet.... Stay tuned

No draw odds posted for elk yet... Kind of strange.

Those Vortex are awesome binoculars imo. I love mine

Mature Mule Deer bucks are a lot smarter than most people give them credit for. They will sometimes live very close to roads or in other spots that just don't make sense. One of my favorite spots for big deer is an area that 90% of hunters drive past to get to "the good areas". Keep that in...

If there were tags left over, it was a 100% draw for second choice. That area of the state isn't very popular mainly due to the lack of public land. Plenty of antelope on private. I don't foresee that changing for this season, especially with the virus concerns. Enjoy the hunt!

Those are great brook trout!

Here is a thought that dates back to some of my biology classes 20+ years ago. One professor I had proposed that hunting, over the course of many years, would change a populations typical response and behavior to people. His reasoning was that animals that naturally showed less fear for people...

That's a heck of a day goose hunting! Nice job getting the kid out at the right time. He may be "ruined" from it but he will probably try to duplicate it forever.

Is the experience or dead elk more important? The archery experience is considerably better to me but you have much higher odds of filling tags during rifle. I think pressure between the two was similar for me 2 years ago. I hunted 7 days of archery, didn't fill so came back for a few days of...

I use a fox with the extra padding. I carry pretty standard on my right side. When it's cold enough to wear a jacket or sweatshirt, I use an OWB that rides fairly high so it remains concealed. For guys that leave their shirts un-tucked, I believe this is the most comfortable option.

Dang you guys... I haven't had a beer in 2 weeks. Trying to get into elk shape and the beer sure ruins my efforts lol. Maybe I'll just have a couple tonight and work harder tomorrow.

I decided to get a pair of geese done that my son shot - his first ones. They are almost done at the taxidermist. He has no idea:D.

I apply for an out of reach moose tag every year. Actually had a friend of a friend draw it (38) with 2 points several years back. He shot a nice bull with his bow. It's fun to day dream about while the application is in but it stinks letting them hold 2k for a while.

Archery insanity please... Park county would be pretty low on my list.

A guy got shot there in 2018. https://www.ksat.com/news/2018/10/08/hunter-dies-in-apparent-hunting-accident-at-hog-hunting-ranch/ There is plenty of info out there on the net about these guys- most positive but a little negative. If you don't want to go, give the ranch a call to see if it can...

Got my little guy out for some fun.

Unfortunately it's real. Even the fake news is covering it... https://www.cnn.com/2020/05/01/world/canada-assault-style-weapons-ban-trnd/index.html
