    CO GMU 12 or 13 (10/30-11/7)

    First time mule deer hunting these GMU's. For those that have hunted these areas for Mule deer, which do you prefer? I know 13 has limited public land with only a sprinkling of public, but that in and of itself doesn't necessarily deter me....likely just means less hunters. Any thoughts or...

    GMU 33/23/24

    Folks....need verification of what I think is correct. Looking at the 2021 Big Game Brochure it is showing that both Antlered, Antlerless, and Either Sex Elk for Archery are not available on public lands in GMU 33, 23, 24. Am I reading this correct? Private lands only? If so...anyone have...

    North Face "The One Bag"

    Funny you posted this as I literally just spent an hour researching the Marmot Never Summer bags. I returned the NF to Scheels today and at this point am leaning towards the Marmot. Best bang for buck based on everything I care about (warmth, space, cost, etc.). Thanks for input!

    North Face "The One Bag"

    Purchased North Face "The One Bag" yesterday from Scheels at $299. Never used it before but it looks like it may check several boxes for me both in terms of versatility and weight. Bag consists of 3 layers (synthetic, 800-fill down, synthetic) that are removeable. All together the bag rates...

    Stabilizing binoculars when glassing?

    Excellent idea. Unfortunately, after looking into this there aren't any adapters for Leupold BX2 Alpine binoculars. Most other models...just not the Alpine. Thanks for suggestions anyway

    Stabilizing binoculars when glassing?

    Coming into my first season Rocky Mountain hunting, which I'll be pursuing Elk in Sept and Mule Deer in Oct. Having said that I'm also new to glassing. I purchased a set of Leupold Alpine BX2 10x52 binoculars which I'll be using. The little I've practiced around my community I notice I have...
