    Pick a state to become a resident ...

    I grew up and spent my life in Colorado. I just moved 3 years ago to Kentucky! Cost of living is one of lowest in country. Coming from Colorado I was able to pretty much pay cash. I live in a town of 70k people with a mid major university. Tons of bars and restaurants, great schools...

    Pick a state to become a resident ...

    Oregon is the bomb! I took a long trip out there one summer and all my friends said get ready for tree huger nation! I was shocked at atv, American flag flying, deer/elk heads on every wall and business, etc... It was amazed. I would have moved to Banden in a heart beat if I could!

    Pick a state to become a resident ...

    Grew up Northern Front range. I 100% agree. I left for love 3 years ago after 50 years but I'll never go back and I planned on Wyoming or Northern New Mexico once I retired. Colorado has changed for the worse!

    Kentucky headed the direction of Colorado anti-hunting groups grow loud

    SB3 Defeated! With the close of the general session last night, SB3 effectively died in the House Committee on Committees! There’s an extremely small chance the bill could reappear in the veto session. However, there would be no opportunity to override a veto at that point and we are certain...

    Moose Colorado Randy's new video

    3 unweighted and 13 weighted My 2nd year as a non resident but I plan on applying for Deer and Elk as well so you are absolutely right. No harm there. Just keep applying and hope for the best. If I draw it is still cheaper than going on an outfitted hunt. I spent 50 years in the area I am...

    WIREHAIRED POINTING GRIFFON OR GERMAN WIREHAIRED POINTER? True Versatility

    My 1st and 2nd lab (I've had 4) were the same way. I could go out on opening day and they would retrieve wounded ducks and geese everyone shot and didn't bother to look for. I almost hesitates to shoot because I knew I was coming home with my limit.

    Moose Colorado Randy's new video

    My dream would be a bull but I'm in my 50's now so I want to have a successful bull hunt sooner than later. I have a buddy that has a good friend that has a place in Alberta. I might go that route and cash in on a cow in Colorado.

    Moose Colorado Randy's new video

    Thats what I was thinking too. Although when I moved I did not know there were resident only units. My elk unit is 161. I saw great moose every year. This unit is resident only. I am going to apply for the east side of north park I think. I appreciate it!

    Yes- Is it worth it. So Colorado uses a point system lottery style. If I have 13 points I get 13 tickets in the bucket, someone else has 4 points gets 4 tickets in bucket. But the 4 point could still get drawn ahead of me by luck So essentially the system just buys you more chances does not...

    Moose Colorado Randy's new video

    Question?: I was a Colorado resident for many years. I built up my moose points to 13. I stopped applying for points when they started charging and went to hybrid system. I am now an out of state non resident. I applied last year but really debating this year. I hunted Deer last year in...

    Teaching kids to clean guns

    My dad was religious about it. We had to clean the guns every time we used them or even touched them. He also taught me to never go near the gun case until he was with me. I got whooped up something fierce a couple times I tried to take a peek without him. I clean my guns no matter what...
