Wish I had a tag. Wait until 4th season for my elk.

2014 post and it's 2025 and I'm still wearing the same one. A little faded after a wash or 2 , but still bright orange!

Wish I had a deer tag! Only a freezer filler cow tag for 4th season. All I need is some snow about 6 weeks from now....

Slugs, The unit I like to hunt has had a 50% cut in the number of tags. No doe/fawn and big cuts in buck tags. 6 years ago (the last time I drew a tag), we saw almost as many bucks as does. I still don't think it has recovered as some friends who live there tell me.

I love to hunt antelope. I have hunted Wyoming since 1980. The last time I drew an antelope tag was 6 years ago. The unit I usually hunt requires 8 points this year. The tags were cut in half after the terrible winter 4 years (?) ago and there have never been doe/fawn tags since then. I will...

I don't know why the big price increase, but IMHO it is just $$$$, no crystal ball. You really have to be careful in choosing the Special Draw. There are units that actually take more point than the regular points draw. You need to look at the history of the both draws in the unit you want to...

Wow...that was fast germination!

Just read that they were killed by a lightning strike. The coroner thinks there were together under tree that got stuck too.

It is pretty close for me as unit 81 is one of my favorite units in Colorado. The west part has some really rough country and a Wilderness area too.

Just checked my source and they were both found dead today. No details yet. Both were young, fit and experienced hunters. There truck was found at a trailhead SE of Wolf Creek and they were hunting during the big storm last week. My source was another Forum and the "The Colorado Sun".

Has anyone been follow the story about 2 Archery Elk hunters lost in Unit 81? It's been almost a week now.

I am a 5th generation Californio who's family came there during the gold rush. My family has always hunted and fished and spent lots of time doing that. IMHO the decline of wildlife started after WWII. The population exploded, hundreds of thousands of acres were converted from natural habitat to...

Thanks buddy, it is a joy to see the sun rise every day......especially when I'm outdoors doing what I love!

I am going to be 84 next month and a cancer survivor (twice). Get the best medical care and trust them. When my colorectal ca came back in my lung, I was told I had a 10% OF MAKING IT 5 YEARS.........THAT WAS 35 YEARS AGO!

Jim is spot on. The 5 I have are 2 knees, 2 shoulders and an ankle. They are all from playing football in college, for the army and in Canada. My replacement s are the least of my worries.

I had the same problem with one of my knees and my Dr told me that eventually the steroid injections quit working. No problems now as I have had a replacement knee for 22 years! (I have 5 replacement joints and all work great.....and the best part is they are pain free!

I have hunted From Independence to Bridgeport from the 1950's and I have seen a tremendous amount of change in the habitat. I have shot over 50 bucks from there. Back in the 50's & early 60's the meadows were lush and lots of brush for the deer to browse and bed in. They still grazed sheep in...

As you get older you begin to appreciate hunting antelope more and more!!! I'm almost 84 and when I can get a tag, it is really a fun time for us oldsters.

Unfortunately politics has too much influence over the operation of F & G instead of science and experience.

I took another long look at this one, it is a real stud for sure! Should be in the 80's with no problem.
