Deadhead / Euro method test
Man that is probably gonna be EVIL when you open those bags and dump the water. My wood shavings tote doesn’t smell as fresh anymore but you still have to get right up on it to notice much.- Bullshot

Deadhead / Euro method test
This whole process is a great lesson in the ecology of decomposition. Check out this burying beetle that turned up at the tote (along with it’s hitchhiker minions)...- Bullshot

How many still tip waiters and waitresses at 20% or more?
On the flip side, anyone that tips only 20% to the hardworking waitress/server covering the overnight shift or 5 am at the local diner, pancake house, or off the highway serving cheap breakfast and coffee with a low food bill is not thinking. Look at that person, ask yourself if you would want...- Bullshot

Deadhead / Euro method test
So over the winter I amassed a couple deadheads found while working in the field, a skull cap from a buck I shot, and an entire intact head from a second buck I shot but never took care of. The warm days of spring were getting very interesting (disgusting) behind my shed… the flies and maggots...- Bullshot

I wish somebody would do this with a gas truck.
A simple reliable truck without too many bells and whistles, so long as you don’t need mega haul or tow capacity. Many used older model Tacomas would check that box perfectly. Easy to maintain. Last hundreds of thousands of miles, properly setup they can get where most larger pickups couldn’t.- Bullshot

Camping inside Hunter Management Area's (HMA)
The WGF’s answer sounds like they are just passing the buck. HMA is not a federal program, right?- Bullshot

Camping inside Hunter Management Area's (HMA)
Not everyone has or can get an HMA pass. But if there is publicly accessible BLM it should be available to anyone for any activity allowed by BLM, pass or no pass, so long as you don’t have to cross private. That should not be viewed as a loophole. But if you do need to use the HMA pass to...- Bullshot

Front strut replacement
So I got rid of the rusted KDSS truck and bought a non KDSS 2024 w/low miles plus another maybe $1600 or so of parts to play with for a 2-2.5” lift (not shown is the panhard correction kit). I am gonna tempt fate again with the spring compressor rental when I get around to it! Should go easier...- Bullshot

Camping inside Hunter Management Area's (HMA)
I would think that if the HMA does not grant pass through access for the purpose of camping, then only day hunting can be done if you need to use deeded lands to get there. I.e, they have given conditional permission but if you break it you are trespassing (upon leaving back through their land...- Bullshot

Restoring a riparian zone
Pin flags are bad. Even worse are the thousands of derelict plastic tree tubes that are left to rot (or not) in place for decades, and all the other associated deer fencing, goose netting, tree supports, wires, rubber tubing, tree tags, surveyors tapes, etc that are almost always left untended...- Bullshot

Everyone’s Saying the Same Thing After Scientists 'Resurrect' the Dire Wolf
I don’t know why this occurred to me and I feel pretty icky saying it… but the real money is going to be in “designer reproductive services.” Parents of the future will get to select which genes from past successful or beautiful people they want added and expressed. So the movie stars or...- Bullshot

Colorado Elk Unit 41,42,411 1st Rifle
I know these units, have hunted several times including 1st rifle. MUCH has changed over the years there. It can be a very tough hunt, but there are opportunities to be had. You can PM me if you have a Plan A, B, C approach and want opinion. If you have NO starting point, I’ll be happy to offer... -
Fatal animal attack?
This can’t be the end of this story. As far as I know, it’s not a normal everyday thing for feral dogs to kill and partially consume people in Colorado (yet) so can it just be moved on from - with a shrug - by the authorities. Is there going to be an effort to find the dog(s) before someone...
