    Leupold Gold Ring 12-40x60 HD spotting Scope

    I have a used Leupold 12-40x60 HD spotter for sale. It is missing the rubber eye cup and the protective cover has a hole in it. I believe this is why it was red tagged out of the military. It has no other issues or problems that I can find in three years of use. The glass is clear and the...

    Admit to Causing Point Creep

    This year I put in for a Colorado deer tag with 2 more points than is usually necessary (2 points in a 0 point unit). Does anyone else want to admit to being that guy or gal that jumped in with more points than needed and if so what motivated you to do so? In my case, it was just to have a deer...

    501(c)(4)

    Thinking on what’s been said about multiple issues (Colorado Wolves and Mt SB143 for example) it seems that we have a huge liability as an interest group. We (our chosen representative groups) don’t have the ability to lobby like other interested parties can. In general our favorite groups, as...

    Kenetrek Boots - No insoles

    I find that I either bought a pair of Mountain Guides off Amazon without insoles or I took them out when I first bought them and misplaced them. I think I never had the insoles. I dont want to send them back because they are a hard size to find (13 EE) and I got a pretty good deal on them (even...

    Pendley Removed by Judge

    William Perry Pendley was removed by a judge and some of his orders will be vacated. Apparently there was a maximum term he could serve without being confirmed. https://www.cnn.com/2020/09/25/politics/william-perry-pendley-ousted-federal-judge/index.html

    Spartan Bipod Height

    I'm looking for advice on what height to get when buying a Spartan Javelin Lite bipod. They come in mini, standard, and long but for the life of me I can't find the length ranges for these sizes. Im thinking the standard would be the most versatile but have nothing to base this on. Even if I...

    Thanks for the First Aid Episode

    That was a great episode! Tyr was a great person to choose for this. Funny and informative. While no podcast can make you into someone who is competent in first aid or emergency response but it sure gave me a few things to think about.

    Idaho Elk OTC Tags Today

    I don’t know how many people were trying for a Idaho non-resident elk tag or second otc tag today but 468 went in about 5 minutes. I started the process as soon as they popped up as available and it took me two minutes. By 15 after the returned tag website already had a statement saying they...

    Trying Something Different This Year

    The last couple of years I've set up a base camp including wall tent and hunted out of it. I tried to be mobile and cover many spots but I feel like I was too invested in my basecamp. Now Ive seen elk this way, but I think I'm leaving bulls on the mountain because I'm too ready to get back to...

    Sold: Weatherby Mark V Altitude 6.5 Creedmoor

    No longer available. I was very fortunate and blessed to win a rifle from a local RMEF raffle. I now find myself with a Weatherby Mark V Altitude in 6.5 Creedmoor, which is probably the nicest rifle I’ve ever owned. The problem is, I’m wanting to go a different direction on a new rifle. It has...

    Ideas for Podcasts

    I'd like to suggest a couple of podcasts or youtube episodes: A little bit before season do a safety/first aid prep episode to remind people and help them prepare for accidents and illnesses. Long distance travel tips and techniques. An update on the overall mule deer herd health and...

    Elk Bedding Question

    I have a question about bedding elk in rimrock country. In the middle of the day, is it common for elk to bed high up with the cliff above them so that the thermals are coming up and nothing can come from behind? Or do the dislike this since it limits their escape options?

    LWCF

    I hope this doesn’t go off the rails, but I was happy to see this earlier today. I think it is encouraging to see any politician pushing for the full funding of this program.

    Random Hunt

    I just had a dumb idea for planning a hunt. Take all of the units that are otc units in Colorado, Utah, and Idaho in a spreadsheet and have a random number generator pick the unit. The only condition I would put on it is the unit must have a minimum amount of public land. I doubt I would...

    Tire Size

    I’m interested in what tire size you guys think is best, particularly in late season in the mountains? Do you run stock size, go wide, tall, skinny??? About to get some 10 ply’s to replace my stock tires. Brand has been talked to death but what about size? This year headed to the western slope...

    Fitting Chains on Front

    I have a 2018 F150 and the manual says chains only on the rear. I am putting leveling struts on it and keeping the tires about the same size. Should that gain me the clearance to use chains on the front? I’ve also thought about spacers to move the tires out. The sole purpose of this would be to...

    Which Organization to Join

    I’m a member of REMF, BHA, and TCRP. I’m looking for one more organization to join that does good work in the west. I have thought about the Boone and Crockett Club or one of the wild sheep groups. What really interests me is public land access, habitat restoration, and research. Can you guys...
