    Man Drops Gun Runs from Polar Bear

    Back in the mid 1950's the outdoor shows started. My Dad took me to one (I was about 12 or 13) and I remember seeing a presentation and short movie by Fred Bear. He was hunting Polar Bear and he had a guide with a rifle for backup. They shot a seal and Fred Bear wrapped up in the skin and laid...

    Another Colorado Wolf Dies

    If you read the article the story goes on to say that the new ballot measure being circulated to stop the restocking wolves is pure BS. It was written with pure Boulder/Denver"s attitude about wolves. I have the signature sheets down here where I live and I am getting signatures to get it on the...

    Winchester XPR

    All of the wood stock rifles I own were either bought or I made the stocks before anyone thought about a non wood stock. Composites were developed in the 70's and 80's for aerospace applications.........light and strong and mostly impervious to the elements.

    Winchester XPR

    Good reason. I bought my son his first deer rifle with a wooden stock. Cut off the butt end so it would fit and added it back later when he got bigger.

    Winchester XPR

    I have no direct experience with the XPR, but looking at the reviews, looks like it will be pretty good. No real way to tell except to shoot it or talk to someone who has one. The one question I have is why would you want the wooden stock? I really like wooden stocks (all of mine have them) as...

    Colorado's new 6.5% tax on guns, ammo & gun related parts.

    Anyone shopped where the new 6.5% tax is applied? Heard some retailers are charging it on hunting equipment (eg. clothing, binos. etc), it's only supposed to be charged for purchase of guns, ammo, and gun parts in my understanding.

    WY Deer numbers are up! 2025 Winter Range Update

    If they did close it for NR's, the residents would pay thru the nose to make up for the money they soak NR's.

    Possibility of Solving Chronic Back Issues

    Yes it is. I have some chronic lower back issues and have had one surgery. My Dr says I am not a candidate for any more back surgery as I'm just too old. He say he has had less than 50% success on people my age (83). The procedure worked on my neck. Had it done 4 years ago and pain is gone. My...

    New Hunting Rig

    The only problem at least around here, there are lots of ohv roads that are limited to less than 50" width. SXS will fit, full width vehicles, not so much!!

    Possibility of Solving Chronic Back Issues

    I have had some chronic back issues that have gotten worse as I have aged. I have had one surgery (it helped SOME!) and my back Dr says he won't do any more surgeries. He suggested back Ablations, which is electronic burning of the nerve where the pain originates. It is an involved process that...
