    OTC Idaho Elk Tag Sale

    Not sure how many other folks from here tried getting a tag today. I ended up w/ a random number of 2921 and my hunting buddy was in the 11,000s. I STILL didn't get the tag I was wanting even w/ my lower number and there's quite a few tags in that unit. They really should just go to a draw so...

    NEWB Rifle Hunter Help

    Last October was the first time I harvested an animal with rifle and I had a hard time transitioning from being behind binos and then finding the animal in my scope behind the rifle. Does anyone have any pointers? I zoomed my scope (VX5-HD) all the way out to try to find them, but I guess I...

    How to Find a Real Person in AZGFD

    Anyone know how to get in touch with a real person @ AZGFD? My bonus points are wrong. I e-mailed them 2 June and they responded saying they fixed it, but it would take a couple days. I gave it 4 weeks and they're still not fixed. I e-mailed them again 10 July and still no response. I tried...

    Episode 156: Hunters as Political Advocates

    Great podcast! Is it possible to have an offshoot of a 503.c into a 504.c (not sure if that nomenclature is correct) for lobbying purposes? I know you said places like RMEF unable to go and lobby on hunters behalf. However, could there be something like RMEF-L (for lobbying) that's not a...

    6.5-300 RMEF Weatherby - Sell or Keep It?

    Just became a RMEF Life Member and with it comes a 6.5-300 RMEF Weatherby rifle. I've read up on the round in the couple threads here on the cartridge and have found only Weatherby actually makes ammo in 3 different variants for it. Also, I reload for my .30-06 and .300 Win Mag w/o issue, but...

    Randy Newberg EBS

    I used my new EBS this past weekend on a big doe my daughter shot during archery season (her first deer/big game animal and it was 40 yards away -- proud dad right here!!!!). I was about halfway through the sternum with the serrated blade and the blade separated from the handle while cutting...

    Savage 110 High Country

    I bought a Savage 110 High Country in .300 Win Mag this past March with a VX-5HD scope and hunted with it 2nd season in CO for mule deer, antelope, and elk. This thing weighs a ton and the Leupold carbon fiber tripod and Triclawps was having a hard time keeping it steady. I'm changing to a...

    Meat Cuts

    I leave for my first muley/pronghorn hunt tomorrow. The outfitter I’m going with only allows the animals to be brought to the processor rather than allowing clients to do the processing. My question for all the antelope/mule deer meat lovers is what cuts of meat should I get done (e.g., should I...

    CO GMU 16 Archery Antlerless

    With the wildfires in CO, we’re having to adjust our plans and we’re heading to unit 16 and I’ll have a mobility impaired cow tag in my pocket at the end of September. I will also be carrying around a crossbow. I’ve done a lot of searching various forums and most of what I’ve found is over 5...

    Anyone Know Porcupines Are Aggressive?

    Thought I'd share this story here with you all for a laugh. I went hunting in NW Colorado during 1st rifle elk season for the second time this past October. I was wondering around in the dark to get to my hunting spot for sun up and I heard something walking in the woods. I didn't think too...

    Tactacam Film Through Scope (FTS)

    Anyone tried these? What are your thoughts? Thinking about getting one to attach to a .300 Win Mag rifle w/ VX-5HD 3-15x44, a .30-06 w/ VX-3i 3-9x50 w/ 30mm tube, and also get the Tactacam attachment for my crossbow.

    Hard to Get NW CO Tag - What to Look for in a Pronghorn?

    I am going through an outfitter in NW CO and am getting a landowner tag normally taking 15+ years to get out of the deal. I've watched all the Randy videos on pronghorn, but what should I be looking for to make sure I'm taking an animal worthy of the tag? I'm not nearly as educated on antelope...

    Educating Adult Onset Hunter

    I'm 42 and just started hunting out west a couple years ago after finding @Big Fin online (only started hunting anything a few years before that). I've been to CO for 1st rifle the last two years and haven't filled a tag myself, but had a great time. I even helped do the gutless method and...

    Use Outfitter or Not?

    Looking for advice from the experienced folks out there. I’m trying to figure out if I should use some money I’m coming into to pay for an elk hunt outfitter. I’m an adult onset hunter. I’ll post an article I wrote that showed up in a magazine about our story getting into hunting, but it all...

    .30-06 Bullet/Load Selection Process

    I went to CO for 1st rifle with 180 grain factory ammo because I didn’t have time to build the rounds myself. However, after shooting these and reading on this site and others about what other people are using, I’m changing to 150 grain hand loads. Here’s what I’m using for my Savage Classic...
