    Unit 40 and points

    I was reading a different post, and not sure I followed regarding expected point creep and non-resident license quota. I'm trying to figure out if I'll be in the ballgame with the points I have this year for archery elk. The way I read it, last year you had great odds with 15 points and...

    Archery Elk - Unit 40 - Mike Lawson

    I was looking for some first hand experiences with Mike Lawson during archery elk season. I've heard nothing but great things about Mike, but it's never anything specific and I don't even know that the guys talking so highly have even gone with him.

    Leica 3200.com

    Is there a setting on these binoculars for the range to just read the range with elevation compensation? Basically, a shoot to distance? They get complicated real fast in my opinion. I just wanted a binocular that would range 0-500 quickly to eliminate a device to carry around with me.

    Colorado Elk 40 vs 76

    How would the quality of the hunt and quality of the bulls compare in these two units? Both would be through outfitter. #40 would be archery or 3rd rifle and #76 would be the late October hunt, rifle. Not so caught up in score as I am an old, mature bull. Thanks in advance.

    Applicant numbers and tags

    I’m curious what others think - but how will kids that can’t even apply yet ever be in the game to draw a tag? Or a new hunter that doesn’t have points yet?

    archery season and the moon

    Is this swaying anyone's thought process? Next year dates are something to consider as well. I think I'm going to apply regardless as to these two factors - I won't draw anyway.

    1st time antelope

    So I’ve never drawn a tag or had the dates line up for me for antelope until this year. Any tips? Everyone says they’re easy and I’ve read the generic stuff. Do you hunt all day? Or go in midday? Any field care tips for the meat?

    Late Oct and camping

    What is the weather typically like late October in southern Nevada? Is it too late in the season to be camping in a tent? Typically use travel trailers but with the virus, I don't know that it'll be a good idea bunking everyone up in a closed space for multiple nights, so I was thinking about...

    Antelope youth scope

    Trying to get rigged up for an antelope hunt for my son and just curious what scope might be good for a youth on an antelope hunt? I think what I have rigged is just fine, but wanted to see what other opinions are out there. Currently I have a 4-12x in there with turret and we’re working on...

    Unit 40 elk outfitter

    I’m looking at cashing in my points this year for elk in 40 and will go with an outfitter. Currently looking at Biggerstaff and really leaning towards this hunt. Considering archery or 3rd rifle - I’m still torn there. Archery in the rut would be fun, but wonder if my harvest odds aren’t much...

    2021 4th season thoughts

    What are everyone’s thoughts on 2021 4th season? Sure the dates are going to be super late but you’re going to be hunting right after a super late 3rd season. So at first glance it sounds good but then you have to consider a late 3rd season right in front of it. Thoughts?

    Illuminated Reticle

    LAST EDITED ON Sep-22-19 AT 05:11PM (MST)[p]Looking for a scope with illuminated reticle for hunting deer and for my two boys to use. I thought the illumination would help them out and help focus their eye. The ability to dial would be nice, but not necessary. I like the looks of the 4-12x40...

    Pack with rifle

    I've been reading reviews on packs, and sort of have it narrowed down to 2. But which pack in this range would be best to haul the rifle around with as well? I have the Eberlestock X1 with rifle scabbard and love it, but need more pack. Right now, looking at Stone Glacier 3300 or Mystery...

    July scouting for 2nd season deer

    Has anyone had much luck scouting in June, July, August for a 2nd season mule deer tag? Central to southern part of Colorado is the area.

    I have a question about the above powder. How sensitive is it to temperature change? I'm loading for my 7mm Rem Mag and found a decent loading using this powder. I'm not 100% sold on the load yet, so that's why I'm asking my question now before I continue. Should I continue using the IMR...

    NR guide draw question

    Question - So if you draw with an outfitter, do you 100% have to hunt with that outfitter? Or are there any holes in the system? What happens if you can't get in touch with said outfitter anymore now that you've drawn? SOL? No deposits made at least.

    Early Rifle Deer 10/5

    Any general thoughts on the early rifle hunt for deer? What kind of movement could be expected, etc. I know the later dates would be better since it's closer to the rut, but I think the opener could be good too. Full moon for the opener however. I was thinking the last week of the hunt would...

    Pac Boots

    Does anyone wear pac boots anymore? Or do you just switch to a mountain boot with insulation? I'm going on a later season date Wyoming elk hunt in the Cody area. The outfitter suggested a regular boot and possibly a pac boot. If I go the pac boot route, I was looking at Kenetrek and...
