I'm new to the forum, though I've been lurking in the background as a nonmember for the better part of a year now. I live in Longmont, Colorado, having moved here from Texas in 2005. I'm a DIY hunter and love the backcountry. I will hunt most anything, but have a special love of mule deer and grey squirrels. Went on my first elk hunt in 2005 and have been out every year since. Still haven't killed an elk, but that hardly matters to me. I always have a great time. Looking forward to contributing to and tapping into the knowledge base of this group, as well as helping further the conservation ethic.
