A hunt I’d rather forget
There are some hunts or trips that I wish I’d never gone on or id rather just forget and this year was one of them. I made my flight to Colorado from Pittsburgh with a brief stop in Denver before getting to Montrose. After a long travel day I set up camp for the evening with plans to head in the...- Slm864

Albino/piebald
I was Sent this picture this morning and it got me thinking of the number of piebald and albino deer I’ve seen in that area of the years. I shot this one probably 20 years ago. It was still just legal shooting hours but this thing looked like it glowed in the dark. Shot it with an old 30-06... -

2021 archery elk success
This is a recap of my 2021 Colorado elk season. I went into it with the mindset that I was going to attempt to be in the best shape I’ve been in recent years so I had no excuse to not chase elk into whatever hell hole they were headed to. I’ve never been in horrible shape but since having kids I... -

How many days are your out of state elk/deer hunts
This has most likely already been discussed before just like everything else but I will ask anyways. How many days are your out of state hunts including travel? Basically doorstep to doorstep of your home. My first couple western hunts started as 10 days, then 12 days, and the most recent... -

Drawing New Mexico just got harder, Even if only by a little.
Read this the other day and found it interesting. I understand it is possibly only 1 tag but that tag historically went to someone and always had the chance to be me in my opinion, or someone other than me haha. https://www.toprut.com/news/2020/01/15/new-mexico-2020-tag-reductions/ -

Best state to take up residency
My wife and I have been kicking around the idea of relocating to the west. Due to our professions we are both blessed/awarded the opportunity to pursue the idea. I am addicted to all things hunting, primarily whitetails and turkeys where we live in the East. I love elk and mule deer hunting and...
