    Colorado unit 444

    I got a buck tag in 444, 2nd season and was just wanting some in sight on the unit from people who have been there. I have never hunted Colorado or in mountains so one question is should I concentrate on lower elevation areas maybe in the west side. More private over there, a little blm. Or are...

    bipod for elk hunt?

    thanks for replies. I never hunted elk before or hunted in the mountains so I didn't think about the terrain being that brushy.

    bipod for elk hunt?

    do most you use a bipod on your rifles for elk hunting? I use a 13"-23" for antelope hunting in Wyoming but I think that may be taller than needed in mountains. I can't shoot prone with that one, I've been practicing more in prone position so I was thinking maybe put a shorter one on from...

    Gaiters

    Planning on 2nd season elk in Colorado. Is there typically snow that time of year? And would gaiters be something you would bring? The unit we are thinking about has elevation of around 8,500 to almost 12,000 feet. Probably be hunting mostly 9,000-10,000.

    got a freak

    Thanks for the replies. Took them to my taxidermist today, the second one is taller with more mass but we agreed the wide one will be a cooler mount so I think i'm going to do a pedestal mount on him and do a euro on the other one

    got a freak

    maybe freak is the wrong term but he is wider and splayed out more than a normal goat. Im no expert either but i have not seen many pictures of wide ones

    Great Wyoming hunt. Stalked up a drainage and got within 100 yards of this lope. 2 doe were bedded in front of him, thought they would spook but they stayed put.
