    House Bill 295

    Over on a Utah forum this has been talked about in great length. Sportsmen have brought this type of regulation on themselves. There have been fights, people have destroyed and stolen others trail cameras, owners are figuring that since their camera was the first one on a water hole then that...

    Wyoming Moose

    Moose are like any animal. You will get a bad tasting one and the only way to tell is to eat it. I have had great tasting 6 year old bull elk, and I have had horrible tasting 2 year old cows, you just never know. But moose does taste better than elk overall in my opinion.

    Colorado's Big Game Guide Book

    More states are going to a downloadable one for the most part, but they usually have a paper copy that you can pick up at retailers. When you are in the field a paper copy is so much handier than one that is stored on a computer or a plone

    Repair of Your High End Clothing Gear

    Yep, that stuff happens real quick. Years ago we were hunting javelina down in Arizona when we got caught in a snowstorm. We had a fire going at lunch and my hunting partner was standing close to it. He had been wearing some Kings camo pants for a few years and the bottom cuffs were a...

    Advice on hunting

    These are not even the better units for a cow hunt. There are quite a few units here in Colorado where the elk population is dropping. You seen it here when we discussed CP&W eliminating either sex elk tags for archery hunters.

    Advice on hunting

    The CP&W has been cutting back on cow tags and is quite a few units you will need a preference point or two to draw one. The units around me went from having cow tags on the left over list to needing 3 or 4 points to draw.

    gun regs yay or nay???

    During the Vietnam War there was a company of cobra gunships stationed in Utah. I knew one of the pilots and he would talk about finding a coyote out on the west desert and going after them. Some of the stories that he would tell were hilarious.

    Advice on hunting

    You have to remember that for most of the rifle elk hunts the success rate is around 30% and the archery hunts are around 15%. I haven't looked at Colorado's for very long time but it was around there when I did. Even if you can get out for a few weekends during the summer it will help. Find...

    Gun Cases?

    Yea, I have no idea of what the Canadian Customs agents problem with me was. My ammo was stored in one of the duffels. He even growled when he asked form my Canadian firearm permit and when I handed it to him he said that I shouldn't of signed it yet. I then told him that it wasn't signed and...

    Same for me, traditional binos and a separate range finder.

    Gun Cases?

    When I went into Canada on my bear hunt the Canadian customs agent tore my truck apart looking for something that wasn't there. They managed to dump my two duffels and then repack them to the point that I had to repack them before I loaded them onto the horses. All they managed to say to me...

    Anyone buy a new bow this year?

    The last bow that I purchased was 25 years ago and while it is heaver than the newer ones it still works quite well when I pull it out and send some arrows down to the targets. But then again I haven't bow hunted in 6 years.

    Gun Cases?

    I would check on the requirement that 2 locks are needed. I looked at the TSA web site and it does not mention anything about requiring 2 locks on the case. When I went over to Africa they didn't say a thing about 2 locks, granted that was 5 years ago and things change but that is why I...
