    My 2025 In Pictures - In Honor of Public Lands

    Incredible post. Thanks for sharing.

    CPW director leaving

    It’s very bad. Robinson was the best. We only got him because we pushed back on Gary Skiba after Polis-Reis rejected every candidate and recommendation made by the hunting community. Very scary who he will appoint to replace Robinson.

    CPW director leaving

    And it just got a whole lot worse…. Commissioner Murphy Robinson, the sole dependable advocate on the commission for hunters and hunting, just resigned. Likely he “resigned” just like Jeff Davis. Actually forced out by the Polis administration. This is the final pieces of the Polis-Reis-Gibbs...

    CPW director leaving

    Polis Reis Gibbs are putting all the chess pieces in place to slowly eliminate hunting from wildlife management and outdoor recreation in Colorado. Stack the CPW commission (pending confirmation this spring) and then bring in a new director completely removed from the sportsmen’s community.

    CPW director leaving

Looks like Polis-Reis henchman Dan “Spineless” Gibbs wanted to fire Davis but instead had him resign so...

    CPW director leaving

    Word on the street is acting Director, MG (ret) Laura Clellan, former CO National Guard AG, is hard core animal rights and gun control. Would be hard to verify this as she likely remained apolitical in her public life while serving. Also never held a hunting or fishing license. TBD whether they...

    CPW director leaving

    I know there has been justified criticism of Davis but I am not feeling good about a replacement under the current Polis administration. Davis’ replacement will be hand-picked by Polis and “Wildlife Czar” Marlon Reis with input from all our favorite folks from CBD, CATS, WildEarth Guardians, and...

    CO slams brakes on giant land transfer from state trust to feds and CPW.

    Good news story. Overwhelming community stakeholder support won the day. Gonna thank Senators Bennet and Hickenlooper for weighing in, their staffs were very responsive when I reached out.

    CO slams brakes on giant land transfer from state trust to feds and CPW.

    A land transaction requires a willing seller and a willing buyer. If the feds can no longer buy the parcel due to changing priorities, different acquisition strategy, or just plain disfunction, then pretty obvious the land sale is out. Not even worth discussing further. If that is the case why...

    CO slams brakes on giant land transfer from state trust to feds and CPW.

    USFS and BLM also have a multi-use mandate so they have to keep that in mind when acquiring land. It’s not the Feds trying to kill the land sale. If you read the actual Land Board packet there are letters of endorsement from USFS and BLM officials. If the issue is the federal government why...

    CO slams brakes on giant land transfer from state trust to feds and CPW.

    Dang. Maybe reach out to Sen Bennett and Hickenlooper’s offices? Don’t know how much they can influence SLB. Very underhanded how this is all going down. Nicole Rosmarino- “The Mike Lee of Colorado”

    CO slams brakes on giant land transfer from state trust to feds and CPW.

    Very strange situation, particularly Polis changing tune so quickly. This reeks of eco-terrorist Land Board Director Nicole Rosmarino trying to ensure Colorado sportsmen and women are locked out of this land. She is likely lining up a private purchase or lease through her wealthy...

    Matt Rinella knocking it outta the park

    For those of us not in “the industry” and from the outside looking in, it’s hard to disagree with this take. Americans love a good satire and/or parody. It seems the HuntTalk hive is somewhat split on this issue. I am alright with that, one of the reasons I come here. I think it is perfectly...

    Scope option for a truck gun

    I think a 1-6x or 1-8x LPVO works pretty good for a truck gun. Lots of good options.

    Colorado Wild Bison Hunt In The Future?

    Would be a pretty awesome opportunity. Have a hard time seeing the current commission approving a hunt though, with such a large anti-hunting voting bloc and the First Gentleman’s hands on the scale.
