Years ago I shot a small 3 point blacktail deer in southern California that was tougher than any meat I've ever eaten. I ended up making burger out of it. The backstraps were even hard to cut. It had a lot of fat too. Just never know.

The same thing happened to AKaviator. He just got tired of some of the BS. I talk to him a lot. He has a place in eastern Oregon that he has been spending the winters at. He got a stud mule deer and whitetail this last year.

I have 2 of the 4.5 x 14 VXlll's with dot reticles that are absolutely great. This new reticle really intrigues me, especially for low light like early/late in the day.

A friend of mine is considering this new Leupold reticle. He is wanting a VX-3HD 4.5x14x50. Anyone have any experience with the Firedot reticle?

My neighbor is a retired Parks & Wildlife Officer. He was head ranger for several state parks here in sw Colorado when the merger happened. I volunteered for Lone Mesa State Park for 7 or 8 years. You guys are right about Parks needing money. Classic example is Lone Mesa SP. It was a 15,000 acre...

I have a buddy that is interested in a Savage. Which one did you buy?

I have a friend that is going to buy a new rifle for antelope, deer & elk. He likes the Nosler 21 and I don't know much about them. I looked online at Nosler's page and the rifle looks pretty nice. I also suggested 6.5 Creedmore for his caliber. He has plenty of $$$, so price is really not a...

Used to see that a lot when launches were at Vandenburg.

I had one, the only problem I had with it was lack of power.

I sure don't agree with your opinion for here in the sw part of Colo. I have seen more really good, mature bucks in our wintering area then I have in several years. My take is leave the season structure alone and adjust the unit tags issued when there is a mature buck population problem. These...

Looks like we are in for a banner year for moisture. I got a report a couple of days ago the Dolores River drainage has 130% of normal snow and moisture. At the lower elevations where I live (6750"), we had about 6" on the ground after about 2 or 3" had melted. Last night it started snowing and...

Deer & Antelope in Wyoming and Deer & Elk here in Colorado. Probably draw Deer in Wyo and Elk here in Colo.

The first time I shot a late season cow elk (late January) many years ago, it kinda spooked me a little. When I was gutting it and a partially developed fetus came out, I was a little bummed. Since then I have taken a couple more and knew what to expect.

I noticed that about 10 years ago. I was trying to draw a deer tag in a unit that was taking about 14/15 points to draw a buck deer tag in the regular draw. I watched it for a couple of years while being unsuccessful in the draw on the regular tag and the special was getting drawn with several...

I have to make sure I opt out as I have a lifetime senior Parks Pass. I bought it many years ago just before they decided to drop the lifetime senior pass.

Talked to my Cousin and he has got Ca F&G attention. Sunday afternoon he took about 10 snows that had died on the club over to Wister Hdqtrs and left them in front of the managers house. He also contacted the Feds who also have an office there.

I hear you! I got married (58 years ago) in October. But there were good reasons for picking the date and time. The day we were married was my wife's grandparents 50 wedding anniversary, my grandfather & great grandfather's and my wife's birthday. It has brought us good luck for 58 years and I...

Just talked to my cousin in southern California about waterfowl hunting in the Salton Sea area (a prime wintering area). My cousins own my Dad's old duck club in Imperial Valley. It has great duck and goose hunting, especial snow geese. There is a big outbreak of avian flu in the snow geese...

Bet your glad he is out of the gene pool!

Is the jaw bone from the spike you killed? The teeth are really worn, probably contributed to the antler growth. How much fat did he have? I have also seen outlandish antler growth from bucks that are stags......no cajones.
