‘25-‘26 Upland Bird Thread
Sharptail and Sage grouse for dinner! Delicious! Last year we were in ND sharptail hunting at a little cafe for lunch and a woman at the table next to us asked us where we were from and what we were doing. My buddy mentioned he was from Florida and we were hunting sharptails. Her response was ...- TheGreek

Waterfowl, let’s see them!
Saturday morning revealed me and the dog set up way too early before LST, like set up and waiting with 1.5 hours to go. I hate getting beat out. Expectations were low but I managed a pair of gadwall within the first few minutes. Just about all bird movement ended within about 10 min of LST. But...- TheGreek

RIP Camofire
I used to check that site every day. Got some good deals over the years. When I lived in Chicago and worked over night, I made it a habit to check the new deals when they were posted at midnight. Made it something to look forward to when the clock struck midnight.- TheGreek

Unit 1 Colorado Elk
One foot in CO, one foot in Utah. He thought this was the coolest thing, to have a foot in two different states at the same time. -
Unit 1 Colorado Elk
This hunt was short and didn’t involve any punched tags or dead animals. But it meant a lot to me to be able to share it with my 8 year old son. I’m really fortunate to live in a place where I can get into this type of country in only a few hours and be home for dinner Sunday. Being able to... -

Unit 1 Colorado Elk
So we start hiking up towards the monument/blm border to see if the bugles we hear are coming from BLM or the monument. We hit the border and I quickly realize that these bulls, and hopefully some cows, are on BLM and huntable. The boy and I keep working in their direction and I finally get... -
Unit 1 Colorado Elk
Sunday morning found us running a little late and headed to check out the single piece of private in the area, that happens to be a hay field, that the bio said the elk hammer at night. We pulled up a bit short and got out of the truck and saw a slammer bull a thousand yards up the hillside. He... -
Unit 1 Colorado Elk
After driving around enough to drive the kid crazy, we headed out about 4pm up a draw that was recommended to me by the CPW bio. Kid did great up and back through some challenging terrain. I finally found a use for the mole skin I’ve had in my pack for years when his boots rubbed his one heel... -
Unit 1 Colorado Elk
So we got out to brown’s park midday Saturday, set up the aforementioned wall tent, which is small enough for me to set up solo (good thing too) drove around and checked out where you can waterfowl hunt on the NWR. Did I mention that half of this hunt was an excuse to check out a place to duck... -
Unit 1 Colorado Elk
Enjoying the new to us wall tent that I picked up from a tighta** old timer in Cheyenne off FB marketplace. Dude wouldn’t budge off asking price. Still pretty happy with it for $500. -
Unit 1 Colorado Elk
This hunt ain’t about any of that. This hunt was a cow elk tag for the same unit for first rifle that I picked up on the reissue list. And then I mentioned it to the 8 year old and he said he wanted to come along. Why not, it’s a reissue tag? His hockey kept us from leaving town until mid... -
Unit 1 Colorado Elk
Unit 1, Far NW Colorado, Brown’s Park, the far end of Moffat County, the stuff dreams are made of. A 20 point bull tag for residents. A 30 point tag for NRs. Most guys dream their whole life about a bull tag for this unit. -
