Tennessee move..info please
I'm not sure if you've landed on an area yet. My wife and I moved to Colorado last year from Western, TN. I'm from Western, KY, so I'm partial to the area. There are tons of real estate opportunities around Clarksville, TN because of the constant flow of soldiers in and out of Fort Campbell...- Colorado

Thanks for sharing. Mom and cub and the mountain lion are super neat to see. -

Elk or cattle sign?
A helpful tool when you're e-scouting is to download Google Earth Pro to your computer. It's free, and it shows you the date of the satellite imagery. That's helpful to know in case the imagery was before/after a burn in the unit or to see how many trucks and wall tents are there if the imagery... -

Boots on the ground scouting
Thanks for everyone's input on this. It's given me a better understanding of what's currently available as well as the importance of being overly and abundantly clear that this wouldn't be a service to sell secrets or known locations of herds/animals. I especially appreciate those who were... -

Hello from Colorado
Thanks for the welcome, all! Looking forward to sharing this year's hunt with everyone. -

Boots on the ground scouting
I appreciate you sharing this. I will research if something like this would fall under the required licensing of a guide as there are more similarities than differences. I can understand the ethical dilemmas for sure. Along the same line of thought, I'm not a fan of guided hunts because I agree... -

Boots on the ground scouting
It is cheaper for residents to buy an elk tag. Living in Northern Colorado with a wife and two kids on a single income is not. But I did ask if anyone thought this was a bad idea. Thanks for the input. -

Hello from Colorado
I learned that if you are ever accompanying two hunters while you yourself don't have a tag, don't ever be away from both of the guys with a tag, as that is inevitably when a 5x5 will come strolling by at 25 yards broadside. Also, I learned that I always and continually underestimate how steep a... -

Boots on the ground scouting
You know that would make a lot of sense for high preference points units. I haven't even began to look at those around here since I just started elk hunting last year. That would be a good excuse to scout around in areas I'll never hope to draw. For now I was thinking more along the lines of... -

Thanks for the quick reply. You may be right when comparing pricing to the link there. I would only be looking to cover gas and hours and any overhead for picture delivery methods. I'll research with that information a bit more. -

Hello from Colorado
Hello all, I stumbled into this forum last year after moving to Colorado and taking an interest in Elk hunting. Since then, I think I've watched almost all of the elk hunting content out there from Randy and crew and am learning all I can. I got to accompany family and friends during Colorado's... -

Boots on the ground scouting
Hey all, this is a bit of a community interest question based on a conversation I had with my wife recently. I've been trying to figure out a way to fund my love for elk hunting. One thing I've noticed from a lot of people on here from out of state is that they inquire about specific units. I'm... -

Clolorado OTC second thoughts
They are there and you can get away from people if you want. I tagged along with a couple of others last year during their archery hunt, but I didn't have a tag. I was just in it for the experience and was waiting to go rifle hunting later in the season. I did a bit of summer scouting in the... -

2nd rifle cow tag for Colorado units 6, 16, 161, 17, and 171
I hunted these units last year during OTC rifle (second rifle) and managed to get crosshairs on a legal bull but didn't have a clear shot because of the brush. Congrats on getting a tag for first rifle, I applied but didn't get it. Last year there was an early, heavy snow in these units that I'm... -

Colorado OTC Public Land 5x5
Cell phone video of a Colorado OTC public land bull. https://youtu.be/HmTCBRApP2E I did a lot of e-scouting and a some boots on the ground scouting for my brother and his friend for our first ever elk hunt (since I'm the only one of the three who lives in CO). I haven't archery hunted since... -
