    Scarce .22 Target Ammo

    I prefer to shoot Aguila Match Pistol, but Federal or CCI match will work also. I havn't bought any in 2 or 3 years, as I bought 5 bricks the last time I bought some. I usually shoot a couple of bricks over the winter, depending on how much I practice. Our Bulls Eye League starts early November...

    Down in Texas they want to kill as many hogs as they can. On my hunts with a friend on his property, he encourages me to shoot as many as I can.

    Boom time or Doom time where you live?

    My wife only makes it once or twice a year and usually when we have company, that way I only get a slice or 2. If you like Baileys ( I do in coffee around a campfire), you'll love this!

    Antelope Unit 79-791 Information

    If you are used to hunting goats in Wyoming, you will find out that in the southwestern part of Colorado, it is totally different. Most of the units have low populations and not too many tags. It usually requires a lot of boots on the ground to find the best areas. I scouted for 3 years before I...

    As you found out, the learning curve on hunting antelope and the open western country is really steep. I first hunted antelope in 1980 and it really gets in your blood. Thanks for a great report .

Natural gas exploration/drilling is way down and farming is about normal. The impacts from Covid is less than 200 cases and 2 deaths. Jury is out on...

    Wait Times...

    It's all about where you punch them! Every animal is different and each react differently. I saw a small forked horn buck run 400 yards after it was shot. My buddy used a 30-06 with a 150 gr bullet, the deer was hit behind the shoulder and never went down on bullet impact. It took off running...

    Your Biggest Buck

    Got him in D7 in the backcountry, what is now called the Ansel Adams Wilderness. Most of the deer in the garage were taken there also. I hunted it until I retired in 2000 and moved to Colorado.

    Your Biggest Buck

    I killed my first Mulie in 1953 when I was 12 years old. I have shot a ton of them since then. I usually didn't carry a camera with me as they were too damn heavy and bulky. I have a few pictures in my album here. The one I am holding is 30" wide, 6x4 and was shot in the High Sierras in...
