I\'m sure you all have probably see the little Bell & Howell tactical light that has been advertised on TV. Well, our local K-Mart store had them for $15 bucks. So I decided to take a chance on one and I\'m glad I did.
It has a 3 different settings for brightness. A strobe mode that will flat...
I had a knee replacement in April, 1 1/2 years ago. The recovery was terrible to say the least. So I messed elk season last year. Now the knee is fair but my balance is really fu-barred because they got into a nerve and I have very little feeling in my lower leg and foot. As if that isn\'t bad...

2)Signal mirror.
3)Emergency space blanket
4) Small fishing kit

I lost you email! But keep an eye out on the fire that is burning in western Moffat county. 250 acres burned so far. Can\'t really tell if it is in your unit or not.
I\'m not kidding, if you guys aren\'t going to yard sales you are really missing the boat. Here is a list of some of my latest finds.
Mathews two piece bow quiver. $1 buck.
A brand new, never used Zodi Zip Shower. $3 dollars
A Billy Cook roping saddle for $30. I spent $25 to have some of the...
I found (two) of those small solar chargers that you can strap on the back of your pack or lay out in the sun at camp to charge things like your phone or other small devices. When I got home I looked them up on the internet and they run between $120- $160 bucks. Would you believe I got them for...
Dirty little boogers have invaded the hillside in front of my house. So I broke out the 17 HMR and declared war. Shot nine of the little rascals this evening. Hopefully that will curb the population for a couple of days. :mg: :mg: :mg:
NEWS FLASH!! Colorado has just past a new law for firearms hunters. Blaze orange is no longer required for firearms hunters. Instead, all you girly guys can now wear HOT PINK! Actually, the law was passed to encourage more women to take up the sport.
Someone has been stealing my fence. They fence was gone within 3 days after I built it. So today I re-placed it and I want to place a game cam so I can catch the culpurt if he returns to steal it again.
I\'m looking for a way to hide the cam so they will never be able to see it. I\'m thinking...
So for all you experienced trail cam guys, here is my question. What would be the maximum distance from the camera that I could expect for the motion sensor to activate the shutter. (I have Stealthcam)

If you are a bit skwimmish, you may not want to open the video. The video is so bad I didn\'t watch it...
If you have ever wondered about hammock camping but didn\'t want to invest a bunch of money, here is a cheap way to try it out
I was in the local K-Mart yesterday and found hammocks in the camping section for $18. That\'s cheap enough for just about anyone to give it a try without breaking the...
What are some of the crazy or silly tricks that you have tried while elk hunting. I know Jaquomo has his elk hat. But here are a couple I have tried that worked great for me.
I very seldom hunt with a partner but I had a friend, Dick, that had never bowhunted elk before. When he showed up at...

A few weeks ago there were several post about packs and pack frames. You can spend tons of money on each, but since I\'m a tight-wad, I came up with this idea. It is a Molle II Gen 4 frame with shoulder harness and belt. All brand new stuff and you...
Just wondering how many BTO members would be interested in meeting up at the Kings Canyon shoot north of Walden, Colorado. It is usually held during the early part of June. I haven\'t heard of a definate date yet. It is a nice 3-D range and plenty of good camping sites. Would be a nice place to...
Thought I\'d grill up a steak to celebrate the Bronco win yesterday. Unfortunately, I couldn\'t find my BBQ grill. I know it is under there somewhere!!!! :crazy:
