    License Fee?

    Ya I'm sure they are. I didn't even think about it because my wife has always bought a fishing license. I always have the small game combo plus deer and elk every year so I really haven't even paid attention to the point fees. It would be nice if they would just charge the fishing license and...

    License Fee?

    I should have looked at the regulations closer too. I'm irritated because I didn't realize they would charge for elk,deer,antelope, and bear. My wife didn't buy a fishing license last year apparently and now I'm out 140 just for points she's not even gonna use for who knows how long.

    2017 HAC

    Colorado Antelope This hunt was very frustrating. I was anticipating it being like my antelope hunt last year. Few antelope but the season starts in the middle of the week so I was figuring on few people. I got a 1950s camper from my buddy this past summer. I've been working on it and thought...

    Wyoming Antelope and Deer We've been planning this hunt since last year and it turned out just as good as I'd hoped for. This was an area I've never hunted but it was about half way in between where I live in colorado and where my buddy lives in North Dakota so it seemed like a good middle...

    Wyoming Antelope and Deer part 2 So the rest of this hunt is kind of a blurring together for me and I'm not remembering what all happened when. I should write a journal every day to help me remember. Day 2 was another awesome day. We were seeing tons of deer probably over 100 a day but they...

    4th season mule deer So back to Colorado with my last hunt of the year. I knew going into this hunt that it should be hard rutting action since it was 4th season. Day 1 I got up really early but there was already a truck parked where I wanted to go. I headed to my second choice spot. As I was...

    Archery Elk Ok finally have some time to type up some stories. I'll post a few pics I have on my phone. I'll try to add the rest when I have a minute at home on the computer. I've had a really busy fall. I went on more hunts than I've ever done and work hasn't slowed down like it normally does...

    Here's the buck my brother is after. My Wyoming antelope all cleaned up. Took my kids out fishing for awhile the other day and my son hooked up with this one. Pretty funny watching a 2 year old try and get in this size of fish. I still haven't got my pictures uploaded from my camera...

    2017 HAC

    Well I've been out on a bunch of hunts so far. We've had some ups and downs and I'll post more on each later but for now a quick recap. - Archery/Muzzleloader elk was a bust. Too hot not a good spot for archery. - Muzzleloader pronghorn was also a bust. - Rifle pronghorn/deer Wyoming was...

    2017 HAC

    Hello all. It's been quite a few years since I've done the HAC. Tons of things have changed in my life since I last updated you all. I think in my last HAC my wife and I had just gotten engaged. We've been married almost 4 years now. We had our 1st child 2 years ago and just recently had our...

    PM me when you get close to scouting and if I'm still working in the area I generally have a good idea where some nice bucks are.

    Colorado unit 88 pronghorn

    I've been working in 88. The last couple weeks I've been seeing all big winter groups have broke up and now the antelope a scattered all over. I'm seeing really nice bucks already on public and private. Probably the best horns I've seen out here in 3 years. Good year to have the tag.

    Multiple European mounts together

    I've seen the vertical post/tree truck on casters with some habitat on the bottom. Looks real nice and it would be easy to move around. Another plus is you can make it as tall as whatever wall you are going to put it next to.

    Three Firsts

    Finally getting around to posting this. Its been a great year for my family. We hunted 3rd season in CO this year for deer,elk,and bear. The elk and bears didn't cooperate this year but deer hunting was really fun. First off we were trying a unit we've never hunted before so it took awhile to...

    Gutless cleaning

    I've tried both and found that I cant gut without putting holes in the guts and don't like gutless because I feel it wastes to much. I started doing the gutless then after all major pieces are off and outta the way gut it quick and pull out the loins, heart, liver, and rib meat. This way if you...

    Colorado 2014 Deer up

    Well I drew deer the first time not this time. Im not too mad about that, but I now have 5 elk points for a unit that takes 4 or less normally. I think to many people turned in tags because of the floods last year. Now I have to decide whether or not it is worth that many points next year.

    Deer 21 or 30

    I appreciate everyone helping out with my decision. It sucks that both of these units sound bad. Im just trying to get why they are so bad. 21 had 91% success 2nd season last year all bucks. Are they just all small or what? Also open to suggestions now since my research is not looking good. Im...

    Deer 21 or 30

    Hey guys Ive been trying to figure out what to do for a few weeks now. I have enough points to draw 30 for sure or possibly 21. The success rates are good in both except 30 was way lower than normal last year. Im just wanting a fun hunt where I will see alot of bucks compared to what im use to...

    Dang, bad luck for me this year. I had a 50/50 chance, but they cut tags by 10 for the season I wanted. 4 points for me now.

    CO draw results are up

    I checked the numbers but the tag i put as 3rd choice doesnt show any number at all. I dont know if its becuse im on my phone and its not loading all the way or what. Dont really matter my 4th choice tag has less tags and higher success rates plus its only a 20 minute drive from home.

    CO draw results are up

    2012 HAC

    Barbary Sheep I figured I would put this hunt with the 2012 hunts since even though it was done in 2013 it is a 2012 tag. When i found out I drew the Barbary tag I started researching areas and looking for places to go, I came to the conclusion that since I couldn't scout and had so many areas...

    Antelope Video Well here is a quick video I threw together today of the antelope I saw during my hunt.

    CO antelope day 4 update. Well I'm sitting in the culvert again. The herd is at about 500 yards away feeding, but it is raining now so I don't know what antelope will do in the rain. I choked big time this morning. The antelope came from the west side today instead of the east. I finally saw 1...

    wy report and antelope update Well my season in Wyoming is officially over. It pretty much sucked for deer this year. I saw a bunch of does but only 1 spike and 1 2x3. I talked with a game warden Saturday and he said it was the worst year that he'd seen. That's about all I really care to say...

    CO Deer Well we had just as much luck the last day of the hunt as we did the rest of the week, absolutely no deer. Oh well it was a fun camping trip and a much needed vacation from 14 hour days at work. I leave to WY on Saturday and hope to change my luck, since I've ate my last 3 deer tags. I...

    Well its been an interesting month so far. I took my girlfriend up to one of my favorite lakes and finally after dating for over 4 years I asked her to marry me. Luckily she said yes or it might have been a long walk back to the atv. Then this past week i have been muzzy deer hunting here in CO...

    Good sized bear track. Talked to a wrangler for one of the outfitters in the area and he said every time they leave one certain camp a bear gets in the tent.

    Unit 20 elk late (jan.)

    I'll second Estes Park Outfitters. I talked with the owner a few times and was gonna work for him but stuff fell through on my end. He is a great guy and kills some amazing bulls. Has a neat way of packing camps also.
