    Nevada bull elk in units 61-71, firearm season in October

    I picked that tag up last year on the FCFS as well, freaky early winter weather, I wasn't able to hunt the first few days due to work commitments and getting that tag the day before season. I don't think my experience was typical due to the snow. The snow was knee deep on top of Copper. Hunted...

    Gunnison meat processing?

    I live in gunnison, typically do my own meat because I’m a picky sucker when it comes to my meat. I’ve used Guerrieri’s a few times when life was busy and I just didn’t have time. They do a great job IMO. With my kids now hunting and work being crazy busy we had them do 3 or 4 for us last year...

    Over the counter elk?

    Maybe not exactly what you're looking for but I would suggest there is some really good elk hunting in some OTC areas. The trick IMO is people. You have to find those spots that people either over look or aren't willing to get into. Big roadless areas, steep terrain, and the farther away from...

    I bet you'll really like those arrows. Learn from my mistake and cut them a couple inches long so you don't have to buy new ones by the end of the summer. Darn kids grow so fast!!

    At that draw weight you're going to have a lot of options. Without looking at a chart I'm betting you're going to be needing around a 600 spine. Again, lots of options there. This will get you out of the "kid arrows" and into adult arrow selections. Are you looking for high end target arrows...

    Toxic broad heads?

    I would echo the lack of penetration comment. I guided elk hunters for several years and had one long time client bring them one year to try. Very good hunter, very good shot. He drilled a bull at 50 yds, absolutely center punched him. We looked for two days and never found a drop of blood. My...

    Backdoor

    The 500 codes are not affected by the points showing up. Bear and moose points have not come back either and the 500 codes for those have been out for a week or so. I don't think we will see the preference points return until they officially post results. As far as I've been able to tell, the...

    Draw has begun

    Not that it makes a hill of beans difference, I was jut curious. As a non-res I can only draw one tag of any variety so a charge of any kind would be welcome news!

    Draw has begun

    So for those of you in the know, because of the sequence of draw will cards get hit first for the more desired tags like sheep, moose and goat, then move to LE tags and finally general deer? Or does the draw happen and then charging the cards is a different affair with no predictability?

    Elk for Dad

    Wiszard, Not to push you away from my home state, I love it here. But have you looked at potentially putting him in the draw for Idaho or New Mexico? Draw odds are long, but they do not use preference points in those states. You could apply him for some middle of the road type units (not the...

    Denver bow shop

    No limits Archery or Bear Creek Archery in the Denver area are good as well as Pelligreno's archery hut in Springs. All three carry darn good pro's. Dillion Sether at no limits, Steven Marsh at Bear creek and Bill Pelligreno are all accomplished pro's and top notch guys to boot.

    Confused...Please help me understand

    Just a bit of arrow "theory". The idea is to perfectly match the spine of your arrow to your bow. Perhaps the perfect spine for your bow wold be a 370, but arrow manufacturers can't make every single possible spines, it wouldn't be economical. So they make a few options, in your case you get to...
