Bosque Del Oso
Is anyone hunting the Bosque Del Oso SWA in Colorado this year? My daughter drew one of the 3rd season youth either sex tags and I'm trying to get as much info as possible. We have made two scouting trips so far. -

A first elk hunt
Good boots are a must. Most people I know use 10x42 binoculars. I would upgrade your scope, Leupold is hard to beat. Buy some quality ammo.

Ultimate Deer Rifle
I love my Mauser in 257 Roberts with a Boyd's stock and a 4x12x40 Vortex loaded with 110gr Accubonds. It'll drop any deer within a reasonable range. -

Spotting scopes/backpack hunts
I have the Razer HD 11-33x50 and I like it. I have 2 other Vortex spotters but I got this one for packing in because it weighs half what they do.
