    Gunnison area 54

    After last years fight with the orange army I decided to throw a flier at 54 second season buck. I will be hunting with my pops this year so I\'m definitely looking forward to having some company for a change! He has a couple horses and we can use them if it\'s worth it. I hate using horses...

    Employee pricing at Cabelas

    I got a flier in the mail. As much as I\'d love to blow it I\'m going to be responsible and resist. If anybody wants it, I\'m not going to use it. To give you an idea of the pricing, I called and asked what the employee price would be for a vortex razor 11-30x50 spotting scope. Regular...

    Can a quiver make you shoot better?

    Apparently for me the answer is yes. After waffling over a Tightspot quiver for a good year I finally found a deal on a used one and pulled the trigger. It\'s almost laughable saying a deal on a quiver when it was still 80 dollars, but compared to the 139 for a new one, I would say it\'s a...

    Spotting scopes?

    Who carries a spotter? Do you carry them to judge animals, find animals, look in your neighbors window? I don\'t see the need for archery elk, but like the idea for rifle hunting and scouting. Last year I scouted an elk spot and could barely see 50 elk a couple miles away through my 10x...

    Bittersweet Dinner

    I only have one tenderloin left!!! The wife are 4 pieces...usually she passes on wild game. I worked so hard to get her to like it, but now I am second guessing my decision. Between her and the 4 year old and 1.5 year old I only got my FAIR share!!! Dangit!

    Pretty good find - not hunting related

    Was at Nordstrom rack looking for a new pair of black dress shoes when I wandered upon a large box with a pair of boots in it. Interest piqued I looked in to find a pair of ostrich leg boots lucchese boots. Of course they walked out of the store with me. They were priced at 299 but rang up at...

    Ol\' Arky

    Was going through my phone and found a picture from last year. Not a lot of waterfowl guys on here, but figured you might like this one. I really enjoy elk hunting but cupped mallards really are hard to beat!!! Maybe the only thing that beats them is a flock of specks hovering over the blind...

    Canned oxygen

    My 78 year old dad had the fortunate/unfortunate pleasure of coming out to go elk hunting with me last year. The fortunate part is of course he is still in good shape and healthy enough to spend a week in the mountains and we both enjoy every minute we get to hunt together. Well...the...

    Oops!

    Went out in the garage this morning to grab an ice chest. Heard water inside. I thought to myself, that\'s weird, and I opened it. It was filled with death! After dropping off my cow at the butcher I tossed the game bag in the box with some half melted ice I used to keep the straps cold...

    New elk rifle

    I am putting together a lightweight stainless steel mountain rig. I bought a vortex viper pst 4x16 scope at cabelas for a price I couldn\'t pass up.
