    The Day we Dred

    It's tough to lose a member of the family and dogs are that for sure. I had a Lab named Molly that was a wonderful hunter and companion for 13 1/2 years. It took me several years before I got another Lab pup. She is great too, but Molly was exceptional and I still miss her.

    GETTIN OLD.......

    You are correct, BUT if I hadn't been good enough to get a college scholarship to play football, I probably would not have earned a college degree. It is truly a double edged sword.

    First Snow of the Season

    There is quite a bit of snow(probably 6" or so) and it is staying cold so most of it will still be there. The eastern part of the unit near Telluride is higher elevation than the western part. I usually hunt the western side for deer and the eastern side for elk. I don't think there is enough...

    GETTIN OLD.......

    UPDATE The first PT stint didn't seem to help. My Surgeon ordered a CT scan with contrast (injection of dye into the joint/muscle). It showed more extensive damage than expected. The rotator cuff was damaged more than he thought. If another surgery is done, he will do a reverse replacement. The...

    Many years ago when we were closing out the Space Shuttle work in So Cal and moving to Florida, I was recruited by EG &G who was the contractor running INEL (Idaho National Energy Laboratory) near Idaho Falls. I took a trip up there and really liked what I saw. They offered me an engineering...

    Antelope success thread

    We hunted the same unit last year that we hunted this year. 3 of us had 2 doe tags each. So the answer is yes. I really like to hunt the same unit I want to draw a buck tag in, as this provides a great opportunity to scout the area while you are hunting does.

    2019 OTC 2nd rifle elk

    My wife and I were up in the La Platas north of Mancos last weekend. Went up to Transfer Campground, over to Windy Gap, Gold Run/Bear Creek and home via Haycamp. There was about 2 to 3" of snow at Transfer, Windy Gap & Gold Run. Saw very few hunters and camps. Usually fairly crowded. I was up...

    Jack O'Conner/Outdoor Life magazine

    I divide his books into 2 groups: hunting/shooting and guns. If you Google Jack O'Conner you can find a complete list of his books. When I was growing up, my Dad discovered I had an eye problem, Ambliopia or Lazy Eye. I am naturally right handed and my right eye was effected. I was taught to...
