Will add that i didnt even know what depression was till around 22 or 23 years old. Then i truly didnt admit i had it till like 30 years old. As a kid i remember thinking all time if i just step in front of this semi pain will be over. Or when fishing if i just wrap that anchor rope around my...

Hello all. Have not been on here for a long time. Anyway sorry to hear about the losses above. As someone that deals with depression i have very few answers. Everyones situation is different. A friend from on here just sent me a link to this thread today and suprisingly i just wrote something...

not sure why you just don't upload the pics from your computer/phone using the link when you click on upload photos. No need to use any sort of picture sharing site. Then there are no issues and they come right up. I think MM's even resizes them automatically. Mntman "Hunting is where you...

I'd try for #2 but closer than 500 yards. If it didn't work out, oh well I still have 5 days. Seeing these two bulls opening morning, its a good unit I will have more chances.. :) Mntman "Hunting is where you prove yourself"

when a comment starts out with not asking for your honey hole you know its going to be good.... :D FYI there are units in CO that you can actually do that on public land with 1 point. Not too long ago, you could have got it as a leftover had you been early in line. Mntman "Hunting is where...

Would just be me and Dad, He can't hike much so mostly camp cook and show up for pictures :) Would not accept help from guide, cause personally I'd feel my hunt would be tarnished. I have the mentality that "I can do it" with nearly every thing in life. If I was required to have a guide (law)...

its all public land/animals. I'd go after it too, however I wouldn't cut in front if he is already stalking him. When I found him and first guy of course I'm going after him. With that said if I had another buck/bull that was nearly equal, I'd try for him first just to get away from other...

If you can scout a lot, I prefer 2nd season. The bucks are still in a pattern and you know where they will be and when. 3rd season the patterns are breaking up some days they keep them some days they don't. Also, I have figured out that bucks in the same area keep same patterns. The younger...

The only way someone with fewer points than someone else draws is due to the higher point holder putting in as a group with a lower point holder. So if a 9 point person puts in with a 3 point person, and it takes 7 points to draw. The 9 point person will never draw due to his points actually...

could be anything, the couple years I spent in there, I seen snow collecting a couple times in early September at/above tree line. Sure it didn't stay but possible. Some nights were 40+ degrees and over 70 in day time. So variable, you will have to be prepared for a wide range, lowest likely...

If your and your son are not complaining every step in that unit your odds of filling tags are greatly reduced. What I mean is if you are following the easy trails where everyone else goes not many animals. I think its better for elk than deer, however with that said I wasn't looking for deer. I...

LAST EDITED ON Mar-23-17 AT 10:08AM (MST)[p]That is crap, I'd lie too. Then after I was hired and beyond probation period everyone would know I was a hunter. Would love for them to fire me at that point for being a hunter... I'd sue the crap out of that person/company and retire early hunting...

I know I am possibly one of about .01% of the hunting population to think this... I think it is one heck of a scam that NR's have to pay so much more $$ for the same tag as a RES. Its ridiculous, here in CO a res moose is $254, NR is $2149. Talk about a rip off. Impossible to say NR's pay for...

>So what you are saying is >200 tags would make a >difference....... are you serious or sarcastic? There is no way cutting 200 NR tags will make a effective/logical difference when there are 6000 resident hunters unrestricted. And comparing it to the strip or henry's, like stated above they...

I never been to unit 40, hunting on or around a bunch of private is not for me. I used up 10 points on a 49 mzldr hunt in 2015. I had a great time there and would do it again 100 times if I had the points. Sure you likely have a better chance at a monster in unit 40 than 49. However, will you...

+1 ICMDEER, First off I never hunted ID but like others said it was a different game last fall. You needed to adapt. During 3rd season in CO, we had one day with cloud cover and temps were about 10 degrees lower than what they had been (still warm). Deer were out the whole time. At about 1 pm...

Yep, looks good! Mntman "Hunting is where you prove yourself"

I see both sides and agree. I guess if I didn't see much human activity I'd hang my own stand and hunt. If it looked like someone was going in regularly I'd probably move on. I just don't like being around someone else when hunting. I like my space. If I did move on, I'd keep that spot as a back...

If a tag is drawn with 2nd, 3rd or 4th choice you do NOT lose your points if tag is returned. Points do not apply to anything after 1st choice. If you draw 1st choice and want to return then yes, you need to decide between points or $. Mntman "Hunting is where you prove yourself"

99% of the time (tags) yes I would. If I ever draw the tag I want in UT, nope. Well on last day I would. Mntman "Hunting is where you prove yourself"

squirrel, same way in MN. In 1995 my dad, brother and myself were all on one tag for one moose (party hunting). Also, can shoot multiple deer/bucks as long as the other member is hunting at same time. starting a new topic... sorry..There are many things I don't agree with in hunting that are...

full set of chains, straps, come-a-long, two tow straps, shovel, a few misc snacks/couple water bottles. extra jacket, fire starting stuff, headlamp and flashlight, spare batteries, binocs, gps, gloves, knives. Might be forgetting something, would like a on board/portable air compressor one day...

no idea about this story till I seen it now. In regards to the party hunting, its legal in states back east. I grew up where party hunting is legal and personally I don't think there is nothing wrong with it as long as both people have tags for the unit/season etc... Yes this guy didn't have a...

My racks are all priceless, no amount would ever get them away from me. I wouldn't even sell my 4" whittail spike I shot as my first ever buck. Well on 2nd thought, the guy might get a swift kick in the ass ;) and I'd keep my antlers... Mntman "Hunting is where you prove yourself"

probably don't need it, however guns are one of those items that once sold its gone. If it has any sentimental value to you in anyway keep it. I learned that the hard way, by selling a gun I wish I still had. My Dad wanted to buy a new gun a few years ago, he had his 30-06 Remington pump he...

never shot a rifle without a scope, I am only 39. My Dad used a gun for a couple years without one as a kid but it has been a lonnng time for him too. Ah, forgot I shot a bull in 2015 with a mzldr here in CO, no scope. Dad gave me the mzldr after his hunt in 2014. As close as I have got...

Only sold two guns in my life. one was a 300 win mag I bought when 16 for our MN moose hunt. don't miss it, dang thing kicked! Other gun was a 870 16 gauge which was given to me by a grandpa who died before I was born. Was a stupid teenager when I sold that gun, won't ever make that mistake...
