I'm in for: CO rifle cow draw CO rifle bull OTC same unit (will buy when they go on sale) CO rifle mule deer point CO rifle pronghorn point UT muzzleloader elk No archery this year. I hurt my arm so I've been taking it easy, and I don't think I can take the time off work in Sept.

It's a great question. I personally don't see how a direct-pay, consumption-based licensing can work. It's just cost-prohibitive to enforce given the vastness of the territory we're talking about. And I definitely think the wolf thing was very badly mishandled, but let's not forget it wasn't...

Hey all, Given how low my chances are for a non-resident draw tag, I'm looking at doing a late season muzzleloader tag this year. Between work and family commitments, I can't do archery or rifle, so that's my only OTC option. Not looking for any secret spots but if anybody has tips/guidance on...

Although I do see some humor in calling the model "Endurance" when it barely gets half the range of a Tesla :)

I love electric vehicles. I hate electric trucks. 95% of the time I'm in my truck I'm towing something. There aren't enough charging stations in the world to keep me juiced hauling 10000lbs of trailer through the mountains.

Because I can. I came to hunting late in life. It wasn't a family tradition, and there was no mentor uncle or father. But I believe I've grown to love it as much as folks I talk to who've been doing it all their lives. There are tons of obvious reasons: meat, trophy pride, exercise, whatever...

I posted my two kits here: https://forum.eastmans.com/threads/e-kits-whatcha-carrying.22371/#post-297634 I think e-kits need to be customized to the person and the mission. You need a different kit walking through a square of BLM land half a mile from your truck than you do picking your way...

Turkey hunting was my only disappointment when I moved to CO. In CT it was what you did to put meat on the table. Spring bag limit 5 toms, fall was 3 either sex. Nice thing about a bag limit was it averaged out. If you had a bad day and came home empty handed you could make up for it with 3...

Here's a really well written story on these for those killing time waiting on tag application windows :) https://www.outsideonline.com/2164446/leave-no-trace

You're 100% right. I apologize for getting off track. If you happen to be "camping" while traveling I can highly recommend Garden of the Gods RV Park in Colo Springs. We go there every year. As a campground it's kind of average, but they have a small arcade for the kids and a cell booster, plus...

That and this epic stunt of a backdrop on a recent zoom call she was on: Which is just about the most irresponsible and useless gun storage idea ever. She insists it wasn't storage, they were "ready for use". To me that means she had loaded firearms just leaning on each other where just...

It's because she tweeted (this is a literal quote) "Protecting and defending the Constitution doesn’t mean trying to rewrite the parts you don’t like." Which is amusing because a) the Constitution was absolutely designed for The People to be able to rewrite the parts they don't like, b) the...

You ask 5 guys this question and you're going to get 6 opinions. But for my 2c I sure wouldn't bother with 38/19/29. If you're just trying to fill the freezer, I would cross-reference the recap and harvest stats reports. Look for rifle-1 tags in high-success zones that are easy to draw, maybe...

I couldn't afford the Pelican when I bought my case so I got the one Harbor Freight sells. To be honest it's pretty decent.

I'm a nerd so you'd think I'd value some of the resources like buying tags online, but to be honest I feel like they disadvantage a lot of folks the way they're implemented. Two years ago their Web site was almost totally unusable for two hours the morning leftover tags went on sale, and...

I use a poncho/tarp combo. Amazon links are still broken here so if you want to search for what I got, it's the "Anyoo Waterproof Rain Poncho" for $24.99. Best $25 I've spent on hunting gear, I'm sure. It weighs less than 10oz, packs small, and is fast to get on and off. I like ponchos because...

Glass slowly and carefully. In my opinion, muley bucks are more crafty than elk bulls. There's a buck in the photo below, just above the center. (Sorry for the quality, I was doing my best to shoot it with my cell phone cam through my binos). What is SUPER easy to miss is the SECOND buck just...

I chose not to go back there last year, but I have been there before. I wouldn't call myself an expert but depending on your question I may have a thing or two to say...

I'm largely self-taught. In a very odd transaction, I was working on building a plane and realized the project no longer made sense (had another kid on the way, no time to finish it, and the plane only seated 4). So I sold it to a guy who I think felt he got the better end of the deal and on a...

I hunt with two other guys but only to share a camp. I'm like 15 years older and slower than they are. I'm not a "run and gun" guy, I like to take my time and pick my way through the timber slowly. We share camp resources and help each other on pack outs but for actual hunting I'm solo.
