I grew up reading Jack O'Conner in "Outdoor Life" magazine. He is responsible for some of the philosophy I have about hunting and shooting. A few years ago my wife bought me the book "Lost Classics". I ran out of reading material (which I do on a regular basis) and started to reread it again. It...

The cooler would make it a lot easier to care for my meat.

I know lots of you want the online MRS and everyone at Eastmans is working hard on it......BUT for those of us who are Ludites are waiting for our printed versions. I don't have a smart phone and don't want one, so I'll continue to depend on the magazine for mine. It sure seems late to...

I've seen several really nice bucks when I didn't have a tag or not in season and didn't see them again. There are lots of deer that winter in my area, sometimes see up to 100 at one time. I remember one particular buck that was here 3 years in a row and then never saw again. He had wonderful...

I realize most of you are not in this situation....yet, but over the winter I've spent a lot of time thinking about it. I am 73 now and have been hunting since I was 7. Over the years, I have learned a lot and can put a lot of this knowledge into practice. I have mentored several young people...

Been snowing all day and most of last night, got at least 6" on the ground. Glad we got the concrete pads poured yesterday for my new boat cover. Can't do anything outside so I fill out all my tag apps. Deer, M/L Elk, Desert Sheep and points for Antelope & Moose. Should draw my Deer (a 4th...

I received my Sheep & Goat brochure yesterday and the Big game brochure is now posted on the CPW webpage. Its that time again!!!

There is nothing to compare bird hunting with a dog. Besides being a great companion, they really improve your bag, especially upland birds. My Lab pup is now 10 months old and unfortunately I didn't get to hunt her this fall due to my ankle problem. Working her every day now and looking forward...

Looks like Alabama is rated as number 1 and my alma mater USC is second. This is the first post sanctioned draft for the Trojans and they did good! FIGHT ON !

I just got off the phone with Colorado Parks & Wildlife and the Sheep & Goat regs will be out mid February.

My alma mater (USC) held off Nebraska last night in the Holiday Bowl. I am a big SC fan as I played for them back in the day. Sorry all you Cornhuskers! FIGHT ON!!!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all my friends here on Eastmans.

Yep...that's the down side. I've had 5 dogs now, on my 6th. All Labs except for 1 Springer Spaniel. Every one has been a wonderful companion and hunter. Hard to deal with losing them when the time comes. The last one was 13 1/2 when we had to put her down. Had her cremated and scattered her...

Here it is. My mother used to put them (and Quail too) around the turkey in a big roaster. They got eaten before the turkey!

Been awhile.....Jenny is now 8 months old now and is doing great. A little headstrong at times, but that is good as far as I'm concerned. Won't get her in the field this fall as I am the one who can't do my part. Recent ankle surgery/replacement has slowed me down, but still get to do some work...

Getting ready to do a trade for an enclosed trailer that a neighbor used for transporting his snow machines. I plan on storing/hauling my 2 quads in it and setting it up for hunting/camping. Years ago my Dad found some surplus navy cots that were wall mounted, made out of steel pipe and had...

A lot of you know I am an aerospace retiree & junkie. I follow our current efforts closely. The Orion was launched and recovered this morning. It is our next spacecraft replacing the Shuttle (which I helped design & build). Looks like an overgrown Apollo to me, which was the first program I...

I think I remember your post about hunting elk on the Co/NM border in units 80,81 or 82. I am looking at a possible M/L hunt in 82 with a NM outfitter..Fishtail Outfitters from Chama. Also looking in 54 for the same type of hunt. Do you know anything about Fishtail and/or 82. CC

Some pictures of a non hunting adventure.... Our 50th anniversary in Hawaii at Maui. Was fun with lots of great fish on the menu. Tomorrow is surgery for the new ankle. It will take 6 mos for recovery, just in time to get ready for nextyears hunting!

Some of you my remember about the problems I've been having with my rt ankle. After surgery last February, which did not go well, I have another surgery scheduled the first week of November to replace my rt. ankle. Last week I had a ct scan which confirmed that my ankle is totally gone. The scan...
