    Is This A Big Cat?

    We had several of us and a full sized big game body bag. Everyone there really wanted to get a weight on this cat. It was about a mile down hill to the trail so it wasn't that bad.

    Is This A Big Cat?

    That looks like a BIG cat or a small guy. This lion whole was 174.82 lb with an empty belly on a real scale. He was really hard for me to lift and hold and I could not get him all the way of the ground as he was 9 foot long nose to tip of his tail. His skull made B&C at 15 4/16 officially. He...

    2025 Colorado Bighorn Sheep Hunt

    I wouldn't soak those horns like that. I think they will get stained. To get them to pop set them in a sealed trash bag in a warm place for a couple of days then drop them in the bag - back down- nose up- just they are in the cooler on a piece scrap carpet on concrete from 2-3 feet high. Do...

    Solo moose hunting tips and tricks

    With 3 moose harvests personally under my belt and another 10 or so as a helper and a cow moose tag in my pocket here are my 2 cents for what it's worth . Call at night from camp and along trails or roads where you want the moose to be the next morning. Using cow calls and a racking noise to...

    Archery Bighorn Hunt in Southern Colorado

    If you're seeing smaller rams with ewes there's probably a small band of 5-10 rams hiding out someplace else. I see you are looking at a ton of very high tree-line country from your pics. I'd look for steep avalanche chutes with shade, water and good feed. I'd also check cliff bands in or near...

    CO Anti-Hunters New Target: Bighorn Sheep hunting

    This commenter caught my attention as well and I let @Oak know. There is a some pretty good science behind the harvesting of ewes to keep populations in check to limit younger rams pioneering out looking for new habitat only to cross paths with domestics. Keeping current herds numbers in check...

    How can this be possible? Colorado Unit 17 Bighorn Sheep tag!!

    I bet Khunter has a couple names on that list of guys who have hunted or helped in S17 you should really get signed up. I was there a couple years ago and helped a first time sheep hunter connect on her first Colorado big game animal on opening day. We found a nice band of rams in the trees and...

    Idaho moose refund problems

    This is the correct answer. I also saw a refund on my credit card the other day for no moose tag in Idaho and now it has disappeared as well.
