All the hunting I want to do for the next 10 years! Just went out and bought my wife a new car. Drove home in a new 2015 Ford Explorer Sport. Has the 3.5 twin turbo ecoboost, man it hauls ass! My wife is thrilled with it. Our old 2003 Explorer was due to have a new owner. Been a good car, but...

I just got a press release from Parks & Wildlife alerting hunter who plan on elk hunting Unit 22 for Archery or M/L concerning disruptions by the BLM caused by a wildhorse roundup. The roundup starts Sept 14th. "The BLM says they will focus on gathering 167 horses in West Douglas Horse Area...

Just got back from the range doing the last preseason shooting with my T/C Pro Hunter. Got my new supply of .501 Thor Bullets and they do shoot great! Got a 3 shot 1 3/4" group at 100 yds that prints 1" high. Unfortunately I forgot my camera. I finally got the new SeeAll sight dialed in and I...

For those who havn't heard, a toxic brew of contaminated mine water overflowed into the Animas River near Silverton. It has gone clear to New Mexico so far. It was caused by EPA workers at an old mine. The river is closed to all water contact, irrigation needs & drinking water until further...

Neighbor just sold his house and is moving. He gave me his N9 and several attachments. Doesn't seem to run well as it overheats. Guess I got a new project. I'm going to start with the radiator and water pump. One of the attachments is a brush hog, should get a lot of use out of it.

Spent a lot of the last 2 days scouting a unit that I have never hunted elk there before. I made a mistake and put the wrong unit choice for my M/L elk choice. I drew it and then realized I had a problem. Luckily it is only 60 miles north of my home place so I can spend some time scouting. This...

Thinking about buying a treadmill for my wife (I'll use it too). Looking at Nordic Tracks T6.5Z & C900i. Both priced at about 600.00 on sale. Wan to stay less than 1K...any suggestions or experience?

I grew up reading Jack O'Conner in "Outdoor Life" magazine. He is responsible for some of the philosophy I have about hunting and shooting. A few years ago my wife bought me the book "Lost Classics". I ran out of reading material (which I do on a regular basis) and started to reread it again. It...

I know lots of you want the online MRS and everyone at Eastmans is working hard on it......BUT for those of us who are Ludites are waiting for our printed versions. I don't have a smart phone and don't want one, so I'll continue to depend on the magazine for mine. It sure seems late to...

I realize most of you are not in this situation....yet, but over the winter I've spent a lot of time thinking about it. I am 73 now and have been hunting since I was 7. Over the years, I have learned a lot and can put a lot of this knowledge into practice. I have mentored several young people...

Been snowing all day and most of last night, got at least 6" on the ground. Glad we got the concrete pads poured yesterday for my new boat cover. Can't do anything outside so I fill out all my tag apps. Deer, M/L Elk, Desert Sheep and points for Antelope & Moose. Should draw my Deer (a 4th...

I received my Sheep & Goat brochure yesterday and the Big game brochure is now posted on the CPW webpage. Its that time again!!!

Looks like Alabama is rated as number 1 and my alma mater USC is second. This is the first post sanctioned draft for the Trojans and they did good! FIGHT ON !

I just got off the phone with Colorado Parks & Wildlife and the Sheep & Goat regs will be out mid February.

My alma mater (USC) held off Nebraska last night in the Holiday Bowl. I am a big SC fan as I played for them back in the day. Sorry all you Cornhuskers! FIGHT ON!!!

Getting ready to do a trade for an enclosed trailer that a neighbor used for transporting his snow machines. I plan on storing/hauling my 2 quads in it and setting it up for hunting/camping. Years ago my Dad found some surplus navy cots that were wall mounted, made out of steel pipe and had...

A lot of you know I am an aerospace retiree & junkie. I follow our current efforts closely. The Orion was launched and recovered this morning. It is our next spacecraft replacing the Shuttle (which I helped design & build). Looks like an overgrown Apollo to me, which was the first program I...

Some of you my remember about the problems I've been having with my rt ankle. After surgery last February, which did not go well, I have another surgery scheduled the first week of November to replace my rt. ankle. Last week I had a ct scan which confirmed that my ankle is totally gone. The scan...

I have never hunted Nevada for big game, only upland game. I hunt mostly Colo & Wyo and am familiar with the point system there. Been looking at NDOWs site and find it a little confusing about points. Can I buy just points for the 10.00 fee they have? Is it like the other 2...

Wow, new offense and normal great defense. 52 to 13, 3rd quarter against Fresno St. FIGHT ON!
