Looks like we might get a break for 4 th season. Here in SW Colorado the weather forecast is for snow & rain for Tuesday, the day before opener. I hope we get an inch or two, that will make Wednesday much better. Every track will be fresh and it is sure a hell of a lot easier to see them when...

One of my Dad's friends was a professional photographer. He took a lot of pictures of our hunting trips for years. He took both of these. My Dad was a great man and yes he had a lot of patience. He taught hunt safety for 50 years, he needed it for sure!

Me 6 of them!

Nikon has been limping along for years living on their reputation for 35 MM cameras they made 40 years or so ago.

1954 my first horseback wilderness deer hunt. I was 12 years old. Actually there are 2. I am with my Dad.

How big were the groups? How many rounds did you shoot since you cleaned the barrel? Did it shoot acceptable groups previously with the same ammo?

So in this instance, what does "mitigation" mean?

Saw about 75 does on a hay field this evening, 3 or 4 small bucks....all feeding, no action.

They didn't have references for them....should have been my first clue!

I've posted about this before (about 10 years ago) but I'll repeat it again. I had always heard that hunting Thorofare in Wyoming's Teton Wilderness was the adventure of a lifetime. I knew several friends who had hunted it years earlier for elk and deer and had a great hunt. I researched...

Not just Alaska, can happen here too!

For me just limit the number of OTC tags and leave the NR/Res split the way it is now. There is no question that Colorado P & W lives on the NR fees it gets. If the tag numbers are cut, I am sure they will raise the price for tags to NR/Res alike.

Down here in SW Colorado, rut hasn't started yet last evening there were 30+ does were in my yard and 3 young bucks (spike & 2 forkies) with them. No interest in the does yet and no big bucks yet. Still pretty warm. With full moon coming up, things might change any day.

Hunt of a lifetime and a DIY too! Great job.

I replaced a .300 Wby that I ruined (I posted about it's demise) with another rifle in the same caliber, so I had plenty of brass, powder, bullets and primers. Pretty lucky as my original load shoots pretty well in the new Ruger.

I can attest, it is a tack driver!

About 2 months ago I bought a new elk/moose rifle. I bought a Number 1B Ruger in .300 Weatherby. I mounted a 4 x 14 VXIII Leupold on it. It has beautiful wood on it and it shoots really well. Need to get some shooting done, but I'll be using it this year.

Many years ago I shot one like that (he was not as knarly as this one) all in the velvet and points sticking everywhere. He was a stag...no balls. That is one huge, knarly buck , congrats.

Spent most of the day in the unit Winchester and I are hunting 4th season. Saw a few deer (a couple of bucks) and a few elk. The one thing that struck me is how warm and dry it is. Today the temps were in the 50's, which is really warm for this time of year. Saw a little water in the stock...

Leaving in the morning to scout (again) the units Winchester and I will hunt deer and elk in 4th season. Between seasons and should be pretty calm there now.
