    Cluster Headaches

    I have dealt with them for the last 40 years! Last neurosurgeon I consulted with after back and neck MRI's speculated my signs are pointing to CTE , which he admitted he and his cronies know very little about. Head injuries accumulate as some of you know! I hope those of you suffering can...

    Hunting mittens

    This might seem ghey AF to some of you, but the old battle hardened Arctic mittens and three finger mittens with dummy cords still work slick as all get out!

    Tape at the end of barrel?

    Been taping my rifle barrels for years. Learned to do it in the service. It is a particularly necessary trick when using a scabbard on horseback as all kinds of nasty gets in the bottom of scabbard for riding "off piste"!

    I hate mice..... I mean I want to kill every last one of them

    I feel all pain when it comes to the little vermin! One night in hunting camp in between seasons many years ago, a couple of former guides came rumbling in after dark, snowing like all get out, drunk off their asses! I gave up my bunk to one and threw my bedroll in the tack/grain tent! Dozens...

    "Rewilding" is a religion. You will never reverse it, they don't mind and we don't matter!

    Wolves Have Been Released

    I had a buddy, a Nam Vet BDQ, (RIP) who was on that hunt on his property of 150 acres. From what I can remember the anti-hunting/trapping crowd was appalled by the numbers slain that weekend! Scary how much pull they have !

    Wolves Have Been Released

    There has been a migrant pack in Jackson Co. to the north which has been doing some documented damage. It would not take much for a loner to travel south into Grand Co. "at some point in time"!

    Wolves Have Been Released

    Many believe their vote does not matter much anymore, and it is hard for me not to share some of their opinion on the matter. I am no longer living in the region, but I know many in the urban and rural parts of the state and I value their opinions on the matter!

    Wolves Have Been Released

    This is a bummer! They released them off of Trough road in Grand County, Colorado. My old stomping grounds. Sad deal for sure and it will only lead to more stupid ballot initiatives!

    My son's 2023 Colorado OTC Public Land Bull!

    That was a cool hunt and bull, there is , however, no excuse for being unable to track an animal afterwards, pass through or not! I am thankful for the tracking skills I learned as a kid and the immeasurable skills I was taught by the LRRP's who mentored me !

    Big toe injury

    I hope you get some relief soon. I am on about 6 months of foot pain, some was aggravating a 45 yr old injury , other from carrying too heavy a load up and down stairs and working on concrete floors in a factory setting. My age , 65, and foot size, 15 narrow, high arch are also a factor. Had...

    Wisconsin 1st weekend deer kill down 16%

    There is absolutely no doe shortage in the coulee region I hunt. Very few does are killed compared to tags possessed, imo! I do not see or hear any of the doe trophies, but a whole lot of buck trophies are parked at the bar, a stupid $*)Q!#@$ tradition, especially in warm temperatures! I am...

    Stay away from Coors for a while

    I was born in Golden. Lived there till 2nd grade. Pa loved Coors beer. I believe it tastes like crap now , compared to many years ago. Maybe my taste buds are all jacked up, but the stuff just does not do it for me anymore!
