    Leaving In The AM

    Well, after having some tag soup on the Colorado ML hunt I am headed to Utah for their deer ML hunt. I'll be hunting the Monroe Mountain unit hoping to find some of the nicer bucks that I have seen there. After that comes the Utah general elk hunt with my brother in law trying to find him a...

    Just remember a long cartridge does you no good if you have a short magazine.

    RCBS Metallic Reloading Intro Kit?

    No scale or is there a digital one in the kit? If nothing else you can pick up a digital one fairly cheap. All it needs to do it to read accurately and most of them come with check weights and a powder pan. You will also find with the powder dispenser that it won't like long extruded...

    1st Aid Kits

    Most people get a first aide kit and only check the contents when they get them and then when they need them. Things need to be replace and updated. The other thing that people need to check is their fire extinguishers that they have kicking around in their trucks and campers. Odds are that...

    Puffballs are easy, I have found them anywhere from the size of a marble all the way up to volleyball size. They look just like their name, no stem to speak of but mostly round and white. Morels are another one that is quite easy, but I agree with a lot of the others looking a lot alike.

    So far it's been tough

    I used to go fishing to a reservoir in Utah that was up a very rough road. At the bottom and start of the road was a sign that the Forest Service had place that said "JEEP ROAD" and under that someone had taken some paint and put "THAT AIN'T NO SH177". If you had a long wheel base truck you...

    So far it's been tough

    There are a lot of those kinds of roads here in Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Idaho, Montana...etc that are more like tunnels than actual roads. That oak brush gets so thick that you would need a tank to actually get through it.

    1st Aid Kits

    I was just going to say a paper towel and a roll of electrical tape. You can stretch that electrical tape tight enough that it makes a pretty good tourniquet.

    If you learn the good ones to eat such as puffballs, and morels you will be pretty much alright. It's the ones that you have to think about that scare me. Plus where Conibear lives there are rooms all over the place with as much as it rains. When I lived up in Washington you couldn't go for...

    One of these days I need to take a mushroom identification class. I know a few and I have a book but a lot of the time I am just guessing and that is one thing that you don't want to do on most of them

    My Coues Buck is Home

    We hunt a area just to the north of Oracle. It gets a little busy on the weekends but other than that we usually have it all to ourselves which is both nice and problems since we usually drive the washes looking for tracks. When there is no traffic in the wash to get rid of the old tracks it...

    My Coues Buck is Home

    That is what I did for the second tag there. Instead of a point I put in for the tag and got it with just the loyalty point. On the stink pigs I put in for 37b HAM
