    Dusted her off...

    Haven\'t touched the bow since the last weekend in September. Walked into the basement tonight and saw the target sitting in the corner and figured what the hell! String needed some wax but other than that I was hitting he X at 17 yards (farthest I can shoot in basement). My daughter got her...

    Winter Park

    Took one of my employees up for a ski trip to winter park today. Looked elky! It\'s my understanding that the forest service owns the ski park. Can you hunt it? I looked all day for elk rubs but didn\'t see any. Kind of hard to tell because the snow looks to be 3-5 feet deep in different...

    Places to shoot north of Denver?

    Anybody have a recommendation for a place to shoot? Can be a private range or just some place at the end of a road. Feel free to PM me if you don\'t want to post on the World Wide Web.

    Need some ccw support in Denver

    My wife is a member of an online mother group and they are all up in arms about this. My wife sent it to me so I could send an email in support and ask that everyone here who would like to does the same. Denver nature and science museum just lifted the ban on Ccw. All we need is a bunch of...

    Lightweight hunting scope

    I am in over my head and probably getting a little ahead of myself but if I can get a deal I figured I would jump on it. I am going to build a lightweight mountain rifle. I was at cabelas and they had a couple scopes on sales. I like the looks of this Leupold, but cabelas also has some vortex...

    Shoot or pass?

    Opening morning, 30 min after shoot time, cow only tag. 3 cow elk are out in a sage flat. Crosswind at 15-20mph and snow coming down hard enough that it takes a minute to confirm the animals are elk even with binoculars. Distance per range finder is 539 yards. There is zero chance of closing...

    Meat processing around Denver

    I used steves earlier this year and was very satisfied with the results. The problem is they are in $1.40 range, compared to reliable in Fort Collins that is .85. Sometimes you get what you pay for, sometimes not. Anybody have any ideas or opinions?

    Homesick!

    My old hunting buddy just texted me pictures from our duck blind. We didn\'t have water for 2 years due to the drought on the west coast. This year they are getting water until December 1 and hopefully rain will keep the decoys floating after that assuming El Ni?o happens. Anyways he was...

    Is the grass greener on the other side? Rifle question

    I have never hunted elk with a rifle, having 8 seasons under my belt for archery. All of my rifle hunting has been deer and hogs. Now that I am in Colorado my rifle will be getting a lot more use! Current setup: pre-64 Winchester model 70 30-06 with Leupold 3x9. I have been shooting 150gr...

    Go to recipe for non game eaters?

    I have been looking at some of the posts on here and there are a few recipes that have piqued my interest. I need a venison recipe for my wife who prefers her meat to come from the store, nicely packed in cellophane. So basically I need a recipe that covers the gamey venison taste. I am down...

    WOOL!!!

    4 years ago I bought a long sleeve first light shirt. Before moving to Colorado I hunted a lot of warm weather. The shirt was exceptional in warm weather. This winter I bought a bunch more merino wool on clearance. A couple of my favorite pieces are my icebreaker boxer briefs. It\'s amazing...

    Delorme SE review

    On another hunting forum I answered a bunch of questions through Pm on this unit so I figured I would do a quick review. Pros: -Amazing battery life. I turned it on when I need it and after a 5 day hunt I still had 78% battery life -Ability to do a monthly fee during hunting season and not pay...

    The Orange Army

    Being my first year living in Colorado and having resident status I got as many elk and deer tags as I could, including a 2nd season rifle buck and doe in a LE unit with leftovers. Most of my hunting has been archery but I figured what the heck, how hard could it be to find a doe to fill the...
