    Bookcliffs roadless access closed from sego canyon.

    The otc extermination hunt on the west side was a success. Most of the migratory bison died the first season. Mission accomplished. Only a few stragglers getting killed there now as intended. No refunds. People are complaining about lack of success on the east side draw hunts now as bison...

    Bookcliffs roadless access closed from sego canyon.

    I don't know the reason why they did this. What I do know is that the tribe vehemently opposed the otc bison hunt that was designed to exterminate the reservation bison that migrate west in winter. Their concerns were totally ignored and the extermination occurred. That was reminiscent of...

    Have you ever shot an animal that had a previous wound?

    I've shot plenty of animals with all manner of bullets and arrows healed up inside. The worst was a cow elk my son killed that had hundreds of tiny lead shotgun pellets all through the meat. It was a total waste. Please don't harass edible critters with shotguns and bird shot!

    CPAW Discussion Item for March 15-16 Meeting

    I like it. I would prefer 80/20 for every species and every hunt including MSG. I wish that would be adopted in every other state as well. It just seems like a fair split to me. I'll take 85/25 though. That's close enough for me. In CO, nonresidents will still be getting way more than 25%...

    How Many Nights in a Sleeping Bag for 23?

    My quick calculations show at least 97. Mostly hunting trips. All in tents. I guess I do like to hunt. No wonder my tents are all wearing out.

    Shiras sheds

    Very nice! If I find a moose shed the match is either right there or I never find it no matter how hard I try. Let us know if you match it up.

    Ut elk

    Sure Flaming Gorge Dam is in Utah. You think the water behind it comes from Utah? Very little of it does. If all states relied on their own natural water supplies, Utah would have less water than almost all other states.

    No scopes on muzzleloaders

    I think muzzloader hunts should always be without scopes. I've killed everything from antelope to moose with an open sighted muzzleloader. Many dozens of trophy animals. It's not that hard to do. Just get within 100 yards and wait for a killing shot. It's still a hundred times easier than...

    CWD plan to kill mature buck mule deer with late season hunts.

    It looks like antlered mule deer tags in the Platte Valley only went up in one unit and that was to get back to the same number issued prior to last year. That unit had the high number of hunters last year as always because many hunters that drew in 2020 were allowed to hunt in 2021 without...

    Illegal to pickup DeadHeads

    Bluehair said: But I’m talking about dudes riding up and knocking the horns off of wild freakin elk on the winter range to get the sheds. I’m still skeptical. I am also skeptical. I've frequently heard people accuse shed hunters of all sorts of outrageous activity. I think most of it is made...

    Illegal to pickup DeadHeads

    Elk have been wrangled off of snowmobiles. I don't know about the baseball bats. There have always been laws against that kind of thing. No need to pass more laws that only affect the law abiding. COWBOY GETS LITTLE TIRED OF CHASING ONLY HORSES By George Diaz of The Sentinel Staff Orlando...

    Pyrenees and other livestock guard dogs in WY

    Sheep guard dogs are not always friendly. I remember when a mountain biker in Colorado spent a month in the hospital after being mauled. I have no love for mountain bikers but I wouldn't wish that on anyone. I have had many encounters without incident but one night while hiking after dark I...
