    Best hunting binoculars?

    I would be looking at Leupold or Vortex for under a grand. $500 will get you a nice pair of either. Then I suppose that you would like to know the power, and on this I would suggest a pair of 10x42's which is the most popular. Stay away from compacts and ones that you need someone to pack for...

    colorado mule deer-rifle-unit 15

    For units 22 and 21 the migration kicked in way late since there were no storms up high until the start of second season. From what I have heard it was a very weird year trying to get into animals. My brother in law did tag out in 21 but we saw very few bucks.

    Or does he say that he arrowed a bull but couldn't recover it? I hunted with one of them for a couple of years. One year he said that he stuck a big bull real good and then lost him, 4 of us went up to where he said that he shot it at and asked him where the blood trail started? He walked...

    Snow in SW Colorado

    I was surprised when I went out this morning, I looked out the window and figured that I had a inch or so, it turned out to be 4-6. My sister called me from Utah where I am headed tomorrow and warned me of the upcoming storms and that I should perhaps head over today but I've been fighting a...

    Midway - Worth The Watch?

    From what I have read of the reviews it isn't worth going to. It sounds a lot like the Pearl Harbor movie.

    I read that article and was wondering what goes on up there. It was also interesting that a couple of them shot themselves in the foot. Darwin at his best

    Don't put all your faith in onx!

    The problem with roads on any data base is that if they don't carry a county, state, forest service, or a BLM road number you have no idea if it is legal to use. Last month while I was hunting in north west Colorado there were a lot of roads that were on my OnX maps on my GPS, they were also...

    Don't put all your faith in onx!

    A lot of fences years ago were put up after a survey had been done. I worked for a surveying company back in high school and hiked all over the mountains of Utah verifying corner pins and such then stringing a line right on the property line for when the fence company showed up to install the...

    The Lightest Weatherby Rifle Ever

    What I have been reading is that the 6.5-300 will get you up to the 3500 fps range with the 127 grain bullet but the 6.5 RPM is only going to be in the 3200 fps range. This is for factory ammo which is usually 100-200 fps faster than a consumer can get it with factory ammo. I haven't looked at...

    Nor-Cal Success

    Great job, those are some nice animals. Any story on that trap? It looks like a very heavy drag chain for a predictor

    Don't put all your faith in onx!

    What it comes down to is that there is very little data that a user can use that is going to be 100% accurate. Maps depend on a human drawing lines, GPS chips depend on correct information from the data programmer. At work we used to say bad data in results in bad data out. All we can do is...

    Don't put all your faith in onx!

    The one thing that I don't like about the OnX now is that you need to get a subscription to their stuff to obtain a update. I'm not sure on just how often they get the county records to update their stuff. I did see on my Colorado one that it took 2 years before I saw the update showing my new...

    Don't put all your faith in onx!

    Everything that I have used OnX for they have been spot on. At least they have if the fence lines that I have checked out are correct. It also has the proper locations for my 4 corners of my property. Remember they say that they go off of county data and perhaps US Forest Service maps...
