My hunting goal this year is to call in a bull elk for my son in September. It will be his first bull and first elk with a bow. He killed a cow last year with his rifle. And then, after I call him in a bull to shoot at 20 yards broadside, my next goal will be to shoot the big 7x7 that he...

After only being able to complete 3/4 of our MtnTough HP20 workout a couple days ago, due to yet another freaking 110 degree day in our garage gym, my son and I changed our daily routines so we can workout at 6am instead of 5pm. Got through the entire workout this morning, no problem. It was...

I caught 35 bass in 3 hours on 1 fly on Monday. Wind was tough, but the fish didn't care. The sign of a good day. New fly on the right. Destroyed fly on the leader.

Truth.

We're still doing HP20, but not 5 days/week as it's designed. We're doing 2 days of it each week, along with strength training and mobility work. Yesterday was a Day 3 workout. Lots of core and cardio for that one. Next one this week will be a Pack In Pack Out - lots of squats and lunges...

Locked doors can prevent people on the outside from getting in, but still allow those inside to get out. Hit the bar on the inside to open the door. No fire hazard.

Which one are you planning on doing?

Mass shooters do deserve to be skinned alive and then dropped into a tub of fire ants. But they typically die in the shooting. They'd all shoot themselves just before getting captured if their punishment actually fit their crimes. That'd be fine too. But it wouldn't keep any of them from...

Heavy Pack 2.0 in the 110 degree garage again this evening. That's hard on an old man. :D But I'll keep doing it. I'm trying to get old as slow as I can.

Nice. I'm jealous!

My weekly routine includes 2 days of MtnTough HP20 workouts, 2 days of full body weight lifting (squat, hinge, lunge, push, pull and carry movements), 1 day of arms, shoulders and calves. And I just added some Knees Over Toes Guy exercises to each day's workout in hopes of strengthening my...

Following up a September fishing trip in Colorado with an October elk hunt in New Mexico doesn't suck either. I passed a couple almost trophy bulls, but my son got his first elk. Filled up his freezer.

Flyfishing mountain streams in September is as good as it gets. Elk bugling.....crisp mornings.....golden aspens...... It's hard to beat that too.

Point creep, fewer tags available to NR, crowds at the trail head and on the mountain..... I actually prefer private land hunts with landowner tags or OTC tags, where available. Downsides are the fence that can keep you from following the herd into the next drainage and cost. But several...

I won a raffle a couple years ago and had my pick of several guns. I picked the 6.5x.300 Wby First Lite Vanguard. It came with a factory muzzle brake. I scoped it and shot it. Then I sold it. Just too much recoil without the brake, and I don't like to have a brake on a hunting rifle. You...

Based on the information available, he's certainly guilty of manslaughter in my opinion. Completely negligent and violated several common sense safety rules. Pleading not guilty doesn't change that.

My Sig Kilo will range 1,200 - 1,600 yards, depending on conditions.

That doesn't make much sense to me - especially banning trail cameras on private land, even with exceptions. I can show you trail camera pictures from the land I own in Texas of several really nice bucks that I never killed or even saw while I was out hunting this year. I know they're around...

Pretty cat! A friend of mine in Estes Park has a bear in his kitchen a few weeks ago. That'll get your attention.

Hunter mom, I don't know if you're still reading this thread or not. But if you are, please know that my heart goes out to you and your family in your unimaginable time of loss. I just got off the phone with my adult son, who I hunt with often. I can't even imagine how I'd feel if I lost him...
