    What is trophy hunting article... Thoughts?

    Good read that I agree with in most cases. The only exception I take is with the statement "today's trend of only valuing hunting as a means of food provision places us dangerously close to reliving a past where the future of North American wild game was bleak". With today's game management...

    Monsoons in SW Colorado

    Just got home from my shooting club meeting and skies are clear east of me. The La Plata Mts are between us and Durango and are just over 12,000'. They have snow on them! It has stormed every afternoon for the last couple of weeks and has been pretty cool for the last 2 days (for this time of...

    Which One Would You Shoot?

    Only killed a couple of Texas whitetails and they are runts compared to this big boy. As I have lots of very respectable mulies, I take this whitetail in a heartbeat.

    Which One Would You Shoot?

    The mule deer buck has a tremendous amount of character, lots of great nontypical stuff. No question....the mulie for sure!

    Wyo Task Force - Nonres Comments!

    I hunted in north central BC. We took a jet boat up the Toad River to the camp. Horseback hunted every day. Was a great hunt, hunted with my Dad and Grandfather.

    Wyo Task Force - Nonres Comments!

    Some of you that really want to hunt moose and don't want to wait a lot of years for a stateside hunt should check out BC and Alberta. Their hunts really arn't that expensive when you compare them to a guided hunt in in the lower 48. I've been on 2 and both were great. It's been a long time ago...

    Looking for recommendations for New Mexico elk outfitter

    They bought the old Chama Land & Cattle Co operation. Lots of great bulls there and pricey too!

    Monsoons in SW Colorado

    I just got some pictures on Facebook that were taken near Gateway (south of Grand Junction). They got over an inch of rain in less than 1 hour. Unreal the water coming down.

    Reloading Supplies

    Was in my local gun shop yesterday and bought some powder! Yep I said bought some powder...... I am working on a new load for my .300 Wby and wanted to try a powder I was out of and I had heard at pistol league practice that they finally had a few things that they have been out of for months...

    Kids Getting ready!

    I would be a little careful with the dry firing. The firing pin can be weakened impacting on the inside of the bolt because of an empty chamber. I use snap caps on every gun I practice with during dry firing. I competition shoot in several different shooting sports and dry fire a lot. You can...

    Oregon Trying to Ban Hunting

    Anyone heard anything about the status of the initiative? A friend I just talked to thought it had enough signatures to get on the ballot. Hope it doesn't go the way of the wolf vote here in Colorado.

    Not a single antelope tag

    Cashing in points and winter kill. The 2 units I and my friends have been hunting for antelope for 40 years has been hit pretty hard with winter kills. We usually draw buck tags every 2 to 4 years and in the years we don't have enough points to draw buck tags, we usually apply for as couple of...

    HR 3960

    Firearms are only a portion of their charter. Alcohol and tobacco probably have as much business as guns. I think firearms should be separated and stand on it's own. It will never go away IMHO!

    Monsoons in SW Colorado

    Looks like the monsoon season has officially started. We have had rain almost everyday for the last week and the forecast is the same for the next 7 days.....afternoon thunderstorms. I was at the range yesterday testing some new loads and talked to a friend there who had been in the San Juans a...

    Wyo Task Force - Nonres Comments!

    What bothers me is that if this passes and then WG&F decides to expand it to elk, deer & antelope. I don't currently have any NR points for any of the big 5 and don't ever expect I'll hunt them in Wyoming. That being said, if they try to expand it to elk, deer & antelope, NR's with points will...

    How many of you will get the Covid shot?

    When I started this post, I asked an honest question. It's been 8 months and my original post has disintegrated into the crap and name calling we see now. I'm done..................
