    How rare is it to find sheds off a 200 inch muley?

    Made a double tier chandelier from >200" sets, all grade 2. Bottom tier was the big ones, 3 sets. My boss saw it and bought it for a good price (for him) then the SOB fired me... a pox be upon him!!

    How rare is it to find sheds off a 200 inch muley?

    Well if you dont find the set I would say you are limited to "most likely" a 200" deer, since who knows what broke on the other side or just never grew. That being said after many thousands of sheds the > 200" typpy pile is pretty easy to hold. The >200" N-typpy requires a bit more effort...

    Colorado Big Game study 2020

    Yep how they count the deer is a problem, but WHO counts the deer is a bigger problem (those who cash the checks count the deer). And lead poisoning is never discussed as a factor.

    Wyoming Unit 5 sheep success (At least for me)

    Yep when I checked in the oldest on record was on the shelf in Cody office. Pretty sure it was 13, coulda been 12 I forget. They gave mine one under that, to me more important than the length, I was thrilled to get one at the end of his career. Tough country to make it for too many winters there.

    Any WY unit 5 sheep reports?

    Some of you guys are brutal... factually accurate but still brutal! Cracked me up. I would have to say that truck camping for sheep in unit 5 is a very low success rate adventure. And yes I have hunted #5 successfully and used a truck, to get to the parking lot.

    Colorado Moose 37/371

    Took my bull and have helped on a couple of cows there. If you are going to go to a few of those mentioned drainages you better have some logistical help on hand. Bulls can look pretty large when you are 5+ miles from the truck tailgate. There are some exceptional bulls call that part of the...

    "Tough" Winter Discussion

    Dont forget planes, trains, and automobiles. Planes... "studying" them for months and miles at 4+ ft of snow and -30 temps. Trains... cant swerve and up to 65-70 mph, take out while herds at times and to count the dead you have to count hooves and divide by 4, its a twisted mess...

    Shed dog farce.??

    Maybe the farce is watching shed hunting videos?? My dog is crippled and in re-hab and brings me illegal horns that I have to ignore for another month or so. Try training a dog to read the calendar.

    Muley Changes to NW Colorado

    Perfectly logical really, to save the deer we will kill the deer... Now would there be any related spinoff effects that aren't worth mentioning by printing lots of buck tags???

    Competing with "long rangers"

    Yes. Yes. And yes many times over that they gave minimal cursory effort at recovery and failed due to not putting forth effort enough and never reaching where the animal actually was when the shots were fired. Distance, stupidity, laziness or a combination?? I dunno. One season, one party...

    You guys would fight over sky color... MY PLAN: A 45-70 and stick to terrain/cover that neutralizes their toys. The down side is a. It's hard work, especially the elk recovery B. (This is a real bummer) whatever I spook is just going to be irresistible for a 20 shot volley from well...

    Competing with "long rangers"

    If you found yourself pretty much surrounded by 1000+ yard shooters, public land. What techniques would you employ to still tag an animal? These are volley shooters here, that shoot more shells in a single volley than I take to camp. It's ugly, it's brutal, lots of wounded lost game. I don't...

    I'm pretty sure all 3 are "real CO outfitters". Read the above copy of admonishment. 2 are for sure, or at least were, I don't care enough to check. I'm assuming you are bitching about their ability to subcontract and gain territory. Agency sub-agency contracting and subcontracting effect...

    Mr. Mule Deer convicted in CO

    That's not generally the way the game is played. You find the victim, establish who controls the land, and gain access with umbrella coverage (subcontracting in the case of public lands) Or simply cut a check, leave a horse head in the ranchers bed or any other " offer he can't refuse". If he...

    That had me wondering too ybo it would be interesting to know the level of flight, amount of pursuit/repeat passes etc of the flight. It is after all completely counterproductive to their goal to displace/disturb these animals. My guess is if the jury was picked from this group he would be...
