Hunting buddy for life
I had a great elk and mule deer hunt this year with my buddies in Northern Colorado but there is nothing like hunting with my son. His enthusiasm and love of the hunt make ordinary deer blind Central Texas hunts exciting. I can't wait until he is old enough to take out West and I know we will... -

Starting to figure it out. Colorado 2016
I started hunting public land out West in 2009 due to the high cost of Texas hunting and took my first bull last year in Wyoming during the 2015 season. I followed the same script this year in Northern Colorado and got as far as my horse would carry me off the beaten path. We were about 6 miles... -

My first Bull. Wyoming 2015
This was my third attempt at unguided DIY public land hunting and I finally closed the deal with my Wyoming 2015 bull. The previous two trips were to Colorado in October and we back packed into the La Garrita Wilderness in snowy 15 degree weather. I will never do that again as it was miserably... -

Full moon deal breaker?
Myself and a few buddies will have 4 preference points and are planning on entering the draw for Wyoming elk 2015. With all the research we've been doing I was leaning towards unit 81 since it has an opening date of 9-26 with no prior archery hunting so the unit should be fresh. I liked the... -

Colorado unit 66 elk
Myself and 6 buddies from Texas drew elk tags in Colorado unit 66. None of us had ever hunted unit 66 so we all scouted using google earth. One of the things I learned about google earth is the terrain looks totally different and the mountains are much higher than we anticipated. Our plan was...
