Colorado otc archery for a solo beginner.
I made my first trip out west from MI to CO last September to chase elk. My original plan was to pack in and ended up talking myself into doing a base camp and I'm glad I did. I ended up getting on elk but couldn't close the deal and learned a ton, especially knowing your limits. We got on a... -

My unit choice depended solely on my dad being he wanted to muzzle loader hunt. Had a couple units picked where he had a good chance if getting drawn with the points he has... -

slug gun accuracy
I would shot the breneekes over the accutip especially on deer drives. I've shot 3 decent bucks in iowa with accutips and they just don't bleed. All three where quartering away shot with opposite shoulder being broke so they never went anymore that 15 or 20 yards but even in the snow there was... -

Hey everyone looking to change it up from the usual chasing whitetail and waterfowl around in the fall and try some archery elk hunting. We purchased a preference point for Colorado this year and are going to give it a try in a year or two, giving us time to accumulate the gear to do so. We...
