    Grim Odds.

    If you look at any non residents odds in any state and most of them are so far out there that you need to be a young man to start putting in. However, Utah works on bonus points and not preference points in the LE and OIL hunts. Plus if there are more than just 1 tag offered 50% go to the top...

    Tag Soup 2019

    This year was a strange year. In both the states that I chased mule deer they were not where they should of been and were hard to find. I started in Colorado with a muzzle loader tag. I went with a neighbor who had a secrete spot, well that is a good spot. It is so secrete that even the deer...

    The problem with the way that the spider bull was taken down was that it was during a muzzle loader season and the shooter used a high power rifle. However he was hunting on a auction tag and like it or not it put over $400,000 into the G&F bank account. It's been long enough that I don't...

    I can actually show you quite a bit of land that was opened up in Utah when they purchased a ranch and then turned it over. It is prime elk habitat. What was the problem with the spider bull? I know that the outfitter had a bounty out on it but nothing about the RMEF.

    Veterans Day

    Here is a video of one that I found by accident years ago. At that time you needed to hike into it but now you can drive a vehicle to within a few hundred yards of it I believe.

    Veterans Day

    Here is something that I need to go see one of these days, it is the Anthem Veterans Memorial. At exactly 11:11 a.m. every Veterans Day, the sun aligns perfectly with the Anthem Veterans Memorial in Arizona to shine through the ellipses of the five marbled pillars representing each branch of...

    What to top my new rifle with

    I should also say that to properly use a turret on any scope you are to going to have to know the velocity and the BC of the bullet that the round is shooting. For those of us that reload and have a chronograph it is simple. If you only purchase factory loads it won't be as simple. Factory...

    What to top my new rifle with

    You just need to get into the habit of turning it back to zero after shooting. I have my 25-06 zeroed at 250 yards so I am good for 400 yards with just using a little Kentucky windage but like the turret if I have the time to get set up for longer shots or even those 400 yard ones

    What to top my new rifle with

    I read where some of the Leupolds were having a return to zero problem but that it was addressed. I have had zero problems with my VX3i 4x14

    CO 2nd season story

    It was a strange year this year out there. The deer didn't start to migrate until after the season started. There were some does and small bucks but the big boys were holding back. We didn't get as much snow as you did. On the Thursday night before the hunt we got enough snow to cover the...
