    Colorado unit 41/411 OTC Archery Elk

    Is the north side blm in 41 worth looking over? Was thinking about grabbing the third season otc rifle tag but also do some deer scouting. I’ve never elk hunted so I’m just looking for experience

    Plant identification

    I searched for a forum but couldn’t find one so I decided to just create one. Can someone tell me what kind of plant this is? I want to do a whiskey barrel mount with some habitat and need to see if I can find a replica. Specifically the plant in the background here. Thanks in advance

    One gun/caliber to rule them all?

    Yea I mean I hate to be so picky cause it did kill all three deer. I guess I’m just afraid if I shoot a deer across a canyon or far enough away I don’t know exactly where he was that I’ll have trouble tracking with no blood trail. Two of the deer were with the terminal ascent, one was with the...

    One gun/caliber to rule them all?

    So I’ve killed 3 mule deer with a 28 nosler, ironically they’ve all been under 200 yards. I’ve tried 2 different bullets now (eldx, and terminal ascent) and although all three deer died, I haven’t been impressed with the performance. Two of the three deer didn’t bleed for 60 yards and the other...

    Rifle at altitude question

    Yea. A lot of people say that. I’ve been running it for 3 years with no issues, but I understand the worry

    Rifle at altitude question

    Yes sir! Thanks for the advice. I was out there last year in the summer and was in the middle of a marathon training block. Think I ran 51 miles that week at 6600 feet and my body seemed to do ok. Now I definitely noticed a difference when we went hiking at got up to 11k, that was wild!

    Rifle at altitude question

    Awesome thank you! No I don’t plan on shooting farther than 300 yards for this hunt. I’m running the sig bdx system so I may just change the altitude in my app and it should calibrate for the small difference

    Rifle at altitude question

    I’ve researched this a little but I’d like to get some opinions. I’m taking a 28 nosler (that I sighted in at sea level) to Colorado where it will be shot around 6500 feet. I will check it when I get there but I’m curious what you would expect? Will it be off a couple inches? Will it be zeroed...

    Mule deer antler growth.

    Lol I got it! He’ll be an even better buck if he’s flying home with me in a few weeks lol

    Mule deer antler growth.

    I’d say he’s a pretty “generic” looking. There’s probably tons of mule deer through the west that have that exact same frame

    For anyone interested that’s what that buck turned into
