    Somewhere on the coast I would bet. We did have one called Master Bate and Tackle, I am not sure if they are still in business or not. They used to sell a lot of hats and T shirts. We also have a Beaver Liquors that has some great T shirts and hats along with bumper stickers.

    Magazine cut off

    I used one all the time when I was hunting geese and a flock of ducks would show up. I had 4 buck loaded up for the geese but would want to drop down in size to #2 or 4's for the ducks. If you don't mind shooting the same load at the birds then there is no need for one, but it sure was...

    I figure if I could hold off for 15 or 20 more years I would be happy to give it all back.

    Uploading pictures

    On my African safari we took over 4000 photos between 3 of us. I have all of them on disk and they are all too large for any form out there. Even uploading them to a photo hosting site they stay to large to post here or elsewhere. I spent around 4 days going through the ones that I wanted to...

    You just need to wrap that rope around a few catclaw bushes, there are plenty of them down there.

    Hammock Sleeping

    How do you drink your beer when you are laying on your side? Do you use a straw or a siphon pump?

    Colorado Left Over Tag List

    I know that in years past that I have seen tags that take 10+ and even 15+ points to draw end up on the leftover tag list. And I have even raised a stink at some meetings but they just shrug their shoulders and say "that's the system that we work with"

    Hammock Sleeping

    If you are in a area where it will get nippy at night you will feel like you are inside a refrigerator unless you have a great sleeping bag. Even in just a area that gets cooler you might not be too comfortable

    Book cliffs roadless deer

    The deer in the Utah Book Cliffs live a sheltered life. A cold rains storm much less snow will put them right into migration mode and it only takes less than a day for them to get to their winter grounds. I have seen it down there when there is not a single deer to be found up high, and this...

    space between camps

    Actually I have found that fires and noise will attract animals. I have had a number of deer and even elk come into a area when I have been cutting firewood. They are curious to what is going on around them. Fire is a natural occurance in the wild and noise just gets their curiosity going.

    space between camps

    If the clearing is large enough camp by them if not move on to the next one. Perhaps go talk to them to see where they plan on hunting so that you don't blunder into someone else's stalk. There is no written or unwritten law on any of this, it is usually just common sense.

    I'd have to turn in my tag that I got as a second choice and then hope that I could snag it.

    Colorado Left Over Tag List

    Here is a link to the left over list for Colorado big game that goes on sale August 6. https://cpw.state.co.us/Documents/Leftover.pdf I looked at it and it ticked me off seeing a single tag available for unit 44 Deer muzzle loader. Looks like someone drew it and then turned it back in but...

    Book cliffs roadless deer

    If you head into the road less area you might end up chasing the deer all the way down to the south unit before you find very many to shoot at. If there is even a cold rain storm in September the bucks will be off to their winter grounds, not to mention what will happen if it snows. Not...
