    Any CO folks interested in grass fed beef?

    Preface: Trying to help out a cattle farmer in CO We buy a 1/4 - 1/2 beef every year and just placed our order for this spring. In talking to him, he asked if I knew anyone who\'d be interested in some ground beef as he had to put one of his bulls down(broke leg I think). Anyhow, it\'s $4/lb...

    California weather

    Hey Elky - just checking that you\'re not either buried in 10 feet of snow or washed away by the flooding! Hope all is well.

    What caliber for my wife?

    A twist on the other thread. My wife informed me this weekend that she wants to hunt whitetails in Oklahoma after we move. Rifle season there is short so not a big deal! :) For her, I would only be looking at a good deer gun so no need for a magnum I don\'t think. Keeping recoil down is a...

    Thermos test

    Okay, in preparation for a late season deer hunt with my wife in NE Colorado, I started thinking of things I might normally not take. Given the possibility of very cold weather and winds, keeping her warm will make for a more enjoyable hunt. I found we had 2 Stanley Aladdin thermos\'...

    Antelope - the other red meat

    Okay, I may get some flak for saying this but I feel antelope is the best tasting North American big game out there! Caveat: The antelope we harvest graze on a mix of prairie grass but very little sage. It\'s not gamey tasting. No smell either raw or when cooking. Had antelope from Wyoming...

    Got the annual Cabelas sale flyer yesterday for their pre Black Friday sale 11/10 - 11/23. Looks like some pretty good deals particularly a couple of scopes. In addition to the flyer ads, they\'re taking an additional 10% off everything in the store including sale items. Of course, I bought...

    When is too late?

    Have a CO rifle cow elk tag that\'s good through 2/28/2017 on private land. My question is around gestation and how far along an elk would be around end of Feb. Assuming bred end of Sept would put at 5 months end of Feb. Any sure fire way of telling at 5 months if a cow is expecting BEFORE...

    2nd day CO speed goat

    Looks like we all got into some good goats this weekend. I had a friend from N Carolina draw a buck tag along with my wife. We had access to private land but used as only an access point and hunted BLM. Chris took a nice buck on Saturday mid-morning then not much later my wife missed a buck...

    Urban deer tags??

    Anyone venture to guess how much it costs in flowers to keep the first buck that big - in the summer no less?!?!? Wife was walking neighborhood while I was sitting in a tree stand bird watching. :)<!-- ia0 -->V__780E.jpg<!-- ia0 -->

    Pikes Peak snow

    Thought some of you might enjoy if not familiar with our great state of CO. Pikes Peak is one of the most popular/visited mountains in the United States. Not uncommon to have snow in the summer but figured this was cool to see a dusting on August 25th! Link is to cams on top that show 360...

    New cooler ordered

    Okay, I broke down and ordered me an RTIC 65 quart cooler for my birthday. It\'ll be a belated present as they\'re about 6-8 weeks out on delivery. I had a hard time pulling the trigger on a $200 cooler but wasn\'t no way I could ever justify $400 for same size Yeti(unless maybe I got $400 for...

    Trophy??

    Checking sprinklers this morning and saw this guy on the flagstone. Wasn\'t sure if a B&C or P&Y caliber so thought I\'d ask! Granted, he had quite a bit of ground shrinkage after his salt bath! <!-- ia0 -->slug.jpg<!-- ia0 -->

    Which week to hunt in 2016?

    Thought this was an interesting article from Elk101.com(Corey Jacobson) regarding this year. Makes it sound like the last 2 weeks of archery season in CO could be rough with full moon and rut. <!-- m --><a class=\"postlink\"...

    Refurbished Sandisk SD cards

    Hope I didn\'t just screw the pooch but I bought 10 Refurbished 8 Gb Sandisk SD cards online for $20. I poked around on the internet and these have a 1 year warranty from Sandisk and great price so figured what the heck. Seller on Ebay was from Croatia but invoice said from China - so I guess...

    Danner Steadfast boots

    Anyone have experience with the Danner Steadfast? I\'m looking at boots and saw these on sale at Cabela\'s 50% off $65. Don\'t figure you find Danner\'s on sale under $100 but would like some feedback. These are the 6\" model - never wore any other than a mid-top hiker so don\'t know if I\'ll...

    Gear modification on my wok

    Okay, the title should get at least some curiosity views! Many years ago, I ran into a guy who made steel woks out of a disc off a plow. Pretty cool so I had him make me one. It woks great(pun intended)! The problem I\'ve had is the bottom of the wok sits too close to the flame and I can\'t...

    Colorado re-issue returned tags

    Was perusing another site and saw a change to CO regs I hadn\'t noticed. In the past, if you had a limited license and ended up not being able to hunt, you returned the tag and nobody used it. In addition to changing the process for returning tags, CPW will post returned tags on the internet...
