Looking for a pair of 10x42 Monarch HGs. Must still have original receipt so I have a chance at the warranty. TM

Trying something new this year. Bought a muzzleloader to get our earlier (my wife doesn't do archery) as we normally do 1st or 2nd season rifle elk in another unit, and see some new country. We're Colorado residents. Will have either sex or cow elk tags. Plan is to set a base camp and will also...

Hey everyone. So in planning for this season we've decided to try muzzleloader elk. We're meat hunters, so cow tags are fine. We've been rifle hunting elk the past 6 years or so alternating between 1st and 2nd season as 1st takes a point where we typically go. I also archery hunt a little, but...

Does anyone know why in the Draw Out report they sometimes combine multiple seasons for the same unit. For example, GMU 38 doe mule deer has 2nd, 3rd and 4th season combined. It says one person drew at 3rd choice, but doesn't specify by season. This doesn't make any sense to me. Thanks in...

Anyone willing to share any advice on archery cow elk west of Grand Lake? I'm a resident but this will be my first time up in that area. Will head up there a few times this summer. Just looking for possible places to start. It is a buddy and I and we don't mind getting into the nasty steep...

I figured I'd follow the lead of some others as it is definitely slow around here. I'm sure we're all just waiting for April to put in for tags, then for the draw, then for another memory filled season. My son has been deer hunting with me since he was 8 (other states). We landed in Colorado 4...

LAST EDITED ON Sep-02-15 AT 06:13PM (MST)[p]Hey guys and gals. It is my son's second year doing archery mule deer. I'll preface this by saying I don't bow hunt. Maybe next year, but I just can't seem to put down the rifle. But that is another discussion, I know. My question is, is there a...

Hey guys and gals. I bought a new Weatherby Vanguard II in 270 WIN for my son last winter. We've put probably 80-100 rounds down the tube, and I've cleaned it after EVERY range visit using the Birchwood Casey Grun Scrubber. All we have shot so far are Core-Lokts, and tomorrow We will be...

I posted this in the archer forum...but figured this might be better since it's Colorado specific. Alright fellas (and ladies), I'm needing a little help here. I don't shoot a bow, but my 15 year old has been for about a year and a half. We did his first archery hunt last season for deer. It...

Alright fellas (and ladies), I'm needing a little help here. I don't shoot a bow, but my 15 year old has been for about a year and a half. We did his first archery hunt last season for deer. It was a blast, but we couldn't close the distance. One issue we have is...I can't teach him how to...

So I've been deer and antelope hunting for a about 10 years now and am finally going on an elk hunt. I'm a resident and just wanted to wait until my son was old enough (actually strong enough, since he is 5'10" and 115 pounds soaking wet) to take this next step. He's 15 now and has been...

Has anyone used this Federal Premium Trophy Copper? Good reviews, bad reviews, copper fouling, etc? It looks darn close to the same as the Barnes VorTX TTSX, but it is a bit cheaper per box. My son will be hunting elk this year with a new 270 WIN I just got for that purpose. We will do some...

So it's time for some new hunting pants and I've been looking at the Sitka ascent and mountain series. My worry is a lot of reviews I've read said they aren't waterproof at all. Here in Colorado I have a chance of snow during most of the season. Or, if I need to sit for a little while and the...

Hey guys and gals, I have a question that may seem elementary to some. After shooting my 7MM WSM for years I decided it was time to purchase a new rifle. My Winchester did me well, but it never was a shooter. I bought it as my first hunting rifle, used, at a gun show, and I had very little...

So I show zero points for both deer and antelope, however I have a "562" code for antelope but no 500 code for deer. My son shows zero points for deer, 1 point for antelope but has the "596" (youth)antelope code (and I don't even remember putting in a second choice option for him). Can...

Hey guys and gals. My son has finally outgrown his youth model Remington 700 SPS .243. I want to upgrade the stock to an adult model so my wife can shoot it (she is tall so the youth stock just doesn't work for her). She isn't too fond of my 7MM WSM :) Anyone have any experience with the Bell...

LAST EDITED ON Oct-09-13 AT 09:02PM (MST)[p]LAST EDITED ON Oct-09-13 AT 08:57?PM (MST) My little man got his first antelope. On the small side, but I am a super proud dad. His longest shot to date by over 100 yards. Ten mins left of legal light on our last day. Clutch...

Hey guys. Does anyone know if the govt shutdown will affect the Comanche grasslands? We have my sons antelope hunt next weekend and these knuckleheads have me worried. TM

Hey guys. My son drew his Unit 135 antelope (doe) tag. The rest of us didn't. He has taken deer but the speed goat has eluded him. We plan on hunting the Commanche Grsslands outside of Timpas. Any information or help would be awesome. Also, if anyone has any land down there they need a doe...

So I have a neighbor (not an avid hunter) who says two people can't share a rifle while on the same hunt. I've never heard such nonsense and strongly disagreed. Has anyone EVER heard of this. I not only think he's wrong, I think he's full of BS. Thanks TM

LAST EDITED ON Mar-10-13 AT 09:18PM (MST)[p]Looking for a little help and couldn't find much on the net. The is the first place I've lived where evidence of sex is required to be attached, and I may be hunting in warm weather without a freezer close by. So my question is, is it even possible...

Hey guys. As I've mentioned in posts, I'm new to Colorado. Can someone explain the rut times here in various parts of the state, and how they effect hunting during the 4 different seasons. I''m used to having one choice in time of year, instead of 4 short seasons. This year we should be...

Looking for a good organization for my son and I to donate some time. A hunting organization focusing on Colorado's big game species would be preferred. If any of you fellow hunters are involved, or know of any contacts, I'd appreciate it. Feel free to PM or email me. Thanks, TM

Hey guys. I moved to Colorado a year ago and was only able to get leftover tag last year because I wanted to wait for residency. My question is.... can I get a deer tag in the draw AND still purchase a point as well? Or, if you want to get a point do you just not get to hunt? Any information...

Looking to get doe antelope tags in Unit 135 on the Commanche Grasslands. Anyone have any thoughts? It's the only large public land within 3 hours of the Denver area. Thanks TM
