What is the maximum number of points that I could have for deer in CO, if I have been applying since day one and have never drawn? Thanks

Well, we left this morning, and we got it done. We'll be going to the taxidermist again, and DAMN! that kid shoots pretty good. We left the car, and I decided to leave my gun behind. Wanted to get Gavin a buck first. Anyway, we were hunting out across these rolling hillsides, about 3/4 miles...

Just curious what you guys recommend for waterproofing my wall tent? I know that Cabela's sells Canvak for about $18 per gallon. Is this the best available option? Thanks, Scott

I finally drew after 9 years, and will be hunting the any weapon season. I'm planning on scouting in August and taking the entire hunt off from work. I can't wait, it's going to be a blast. Scott

Yep, after 9 years I finally drew a Central Mts. Nebo, early, any weapon tag, can't wait for the hunt. I expect to spend a week down there scouting in August. A friend of a friend shot a 380+ bull down there two years ago, and I am hoping to glean some info from him. I'm excited to say the...

Just thought I would mention that I'm selling my Swaro ATS 65 spotting scope. It's in like new condition, and I have it posted over in the classifieds. Scott

I have 9 points going into the draw this year, and I'm looking for your thoughts on which unit I would stand the best chance of shooting a good bull in, if I was fortunate enough to draw a tag. These are the units I'm considering, all are early season, any weapon hunts. I'd be hunting on foot...

Bought this just before we left for elk hunt. Used it in camp to cook brownies and two pans of muffins. Worked great! I would highly recommend. Paid $80 at Sportsman's. Can't imagine camp life without it now. Scott

Sorry this is so long, but i wanted to tell the whole story. We got back from my son's (Gavin) first elk hunt. My brother and his wife came along, and this would be his first big game hunt as well. Gavin had drawn a cow elk tag, so he would be able to shoot a 3-point or larger bull, or a cow...

Anybody have any rut activity to report? I have a late muzzleloader tag that doesn't start until Nov. 20, and I'm hoping to catch the tail end of the rut. I'll be hunting the Kahlotus unit. Thanks, Scott

While driving to CO 2 years ago for deer hunt, I was admiring this unit from freeway, and thinking that it looked like good desert country for big bucks (I love hunting the desert). Anyhow, I'm already thinking towards next year, and was wondering if anyone might share their thoughts/experience...

I've been trying to post this in the classifieds for two days, and for some reason I can't get it to work, so I'm putting it on here. I won this ice chest at an RMEF banquet and have only used it once. Has RMEF logo stamped on front. This is not your standard ice chest. Specs and pics are...

We bought my dad a guided sturgeon fishing trip for his B-day/retirement. We decided that my two brothers, bro-in-law, and I should all go along to keep Dad company. In 7 hours, we caught 15 fish. 3 about 2 ft, 11 that were 3 - 4.5 ft, and one that was an honest 10 ft. Unreal! That big one took...

I drew this tag for my third choice, and was wondering if any of you MM guys from WA have had this tag in the past. Now I'm not looking for your honey hole, but if anybody has any helpful info they'd like to share, I'd appreciate it. I am reasonably familiar with the unit, and hunted it some...

Wondering if any of you MM guys from WA have had this tag in the past. Now I'm not looking for your honey hole, but if anybody has any helpful info they'd like to share, I'd appreciate it. I am reasonably familiar with the unit, and hunted it some last year during the general season, but didn't...

Some of you may remember, but this was my son's first deer. We had a great hunt and now have the buck hanging on the wall for friends and family to see. Can't wait 'til this year to see what fortune awaits us. Thanks for looking, Scott

I've got a buddy at work who is looking to buy some brass for reloading. If you have any or know a good place to get some, he'd appreciate the help. Scott

Who's going to see Mike in Richland, WA next Saturday? I love the videos, and have been having some withdrawls lately, so I'm definately going. Anybody else planning to be there? Scott

Just wondering how evryone who hunted the late muzzleloader hunt in Washington did. I went out on opening day, and let a 20" 4 x 4 walk away at 126 yds. He was just not what I was looking for, especially since my son set the bar pretty high during the modern firearm season. After that, I didn't...

Just an FYI, I just posted a Snipe Pod STX-30 over in the classifieds. If you're looking for one, this one has never really been used. Scott

Sorry this is so long, but I gotta tell the whole story! This is my son's second year hunting. Last year we had a couple of chances, but were unable to get him a shot at a buck. He was pretty anxious for this year, and I decided to hunt with my muzzleloader so that I could concentrate on...

I didn't want to high jack someone elses post, so I decided to post another question. Does anyone have any personal experience using one of the X-fibre sleeping bags that are available on the huntbackcountry.com web site? They look like good bags, the prices are reasonable, and the write up for...

If it's not open already, does anyone know what day they are supposed to be opening up this store? Me and the guys are planning a trip down to spend a lot of money and get in trouble with the wives. Scott/couesbitten

Just got my buck back from the taxidermist, and couldn't be happier with the quality and time taken to complete. I've also included pics of the other two bucks I've got mounted. Thanks for looking, Scott/couesbitten 2005 Washington Buck 1997 Washington Buck 2000 Arizona Coues Buck

Here's some pics of my son and I with my buck. Great hunt, had alot of fun. Some good memories with my son. Scott/couesbitten

I know that this subject has been discussed before. I am looking to get a good pack that I can hunt all day with, and then load up with half a boned out deer for packin' out. I've looked at the Eberlestock Just One, Badlands 2200 & 2800, Kelty Packs, etc. and am leaning towards the Blacks Creek...

My buddy and I are just gettting into reloading, and we're having a disagreement on how many times we should reuse brass. I say that as long as the integrity of the case is good, it's okay to reuse. He says only reload two or three times. What do you all say? Scott/couesbitten

Have a buddy who shoots a Browning BAR 7mm. He's heard that you can't shoot reloaded ammo through it. Any truth to that? Thanks for the reply's. Scott/couesbitten

Was wondering if anyone out there could give me a website where I could find the average snow depth/accumulation for a given time period in the area around Aspen. Like perhaps a five year average for the month of November. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Scott/couesbitten

I'm sure they don't compare to the Swarovski 15's, but what are your thoughts on them? For about $700, I would think that they are a pretty good buy. Scott/couesbitten

Decided to hunt with my muzzleloader this year. Have never hunted elk with it before, but the season dates (opens Oct. 1) and the warmer weather seemed favorable. Have been doing some scouting, and am heading up this weekend to the William O Douglas wilderness area northwest of White Pass to...

Was looking for some opinions and thoughts regarding a rifle for my son. First, he is coming up on his 10th birthday, is 4ft 2in tall, and weighs about 65 lbs. He just passed his hunter safety and is thinking he might be ready to go on his first deer hunt. I have been trying to decide what kind...

I and two friends drew the third season (Nov. 5-11) tag for these units. I know it's a very mountainous area, but at that time of year I'm expecting the deer to be down in elevation, and hopefully coming into rut. Was wondering if anyone could give me an idea of what I might be looking at as far...

I'm giving some serious consideration to purchasing a pair of these, and am wondering what you all think. I really wish the warranty was more than 5 years, but they are Leica, so I'll probably never have a problem with them. Would you do it? Thanks, Scott/couesbitten

Anybody ever hunt this area for elk? Just wondering what the success odds were and what quality of animals were taken. Scott/couesbitten

Well, the seasons are over, and I'm already beginning to make plans for next year. I've got four Oregon points and am trying to decide where I can might see the best quality deer and the least amount of hunting pressure. I'm not against working hard and hiking long distances to escape the...

Was wondering if anyone in the MM family has, or can tell me where I can find a good cape for a buck I'd like to get mounted. I shot him 8 years ago, and have been wanting to get him mounted. Wife gave me the green light. Thanks to all. Scott/couesbitten

Applied for this unit with 3 points. Hoping to draw. Can anyone share any information about good areas to try? Not looking for anybodies "honey hole", just a point in the right direction. I'm in WA, so if I draw, I'll be going down a few times to scout. Scott
