    Class is not that obvious and folks have their opinion that is half the fun. Some guys sandbag bucks others over estimate them.. Remember that 5-10” in total score can be the difference of 1/2”’ to 1” on all the points.. Or a typical w eye guards is a 10 pointer to our fair friends to the...

    Well I would put him in the low 160's but when talking class I put him in the 30"er class lol.. Or he is a 30" class buck and for some that will trump score any day! Old fella he is and it will be interesting to see if he returns next year. Also here is another one bigger this time. He was...

    More Colorado archery OTC units to move to draw only

    Muzzy hunters don’t bother me too much but now high country rifle hunters for mule deer is a different story.... In 2022 here in Co - archery guys will have 4 days to hunt before shells are getting hucked 1000 yds across basins. Very unsafe for the archers w the actions I have seen out of...

    Kinda funny story but why I thought I f this buck was because about a month ago i waked out of my brothers house and there eating on one of his apple trees was this guy. I said “hey I know you” lol we were about 40 yds from each other - he looked and walked leisurely away. Right about 25 miles...

    More Colorado archery OTC units to move to draw only

    The CPW has identified several units in the SW part of the state that will most likely become limited next year or in 2020. From who I talk with this change at this point is almost a sure thing = just waiting for the vote of the commissioners to approve the change. Needless to say for most this...

    This thread is worthless without pics 😂... I will add a few here when I get time. I use “class” all the time and usually find I am a bit low on my estimations. During scouting and in my notes I use it extensively so when I look back at the notes I don’t forget any.. Or my notes say “August...

    First Snow of the Season

    It is starting again from central Colorado north to Wyoming boarder.. 8”-14” up high around here before the storm and looks like we will get at least a foot out of this one.. Pry 7” new snow at my house overnight I live at 8000 ft. This will be enough to close all the “seasonal” passes and a...

    Gloves - 2019 State of the Union

    I spend a lot of time in the winter backcountry skiing from a snow machine. Kilm gloves are real good. Burton gloves are as well. Just the top end ones as the cheap ones are crap. For when it gets real cold -10 to -40 I use Burton mittens with wool glove liners and the disposable hand warmers.
