And that's why I wouldn't shoot at an animal that far. but I'm very confident I could hit the vitals at that range. Anyone that's skeptical should take a good shooting school. it'll open your eyes to what's possible, and more importantly what 's not.

I'm not sure why OR get's such a bad rap on taxes, we have a 9.9% income tax for most brackets but by the time you take the exemptions and deductions it cuts that way back. vehicle registrations are cheap and we have no sales tax . there's no free lunch I'd rather pay something than live in...

It doesn't exist anymore for some reason.

Maybe the worms add a good flavor. I've seen what they eat. and I've seen the worms in them. I know a pig farmer and he says he wouldn't eat a wild hog or a bear because of the parasites. good enough for me, game over I'm out.

The score matters as much in judging big game as it does in the Superbowl.

I like to shoot them to save a few elk calves. but here they expect you to bring out the worm infested disgusting meat so you either have to be an outlaw or bring it out and toss it. it takes a lot of the fun out of bear hunting.

A nicely made custom fixed blade is an heirloom piece that could last for generations. not only is the quality superior but every time you pick it up or see it you're reminded of all the times you used it and the miles you carried it. my knives mean as much to me as my guns. I'd never give...

It was below zero a few mornings in 3rd season 2 years ago. I had a 66 tag. My wife drew a 551 4th tag so if you're staying in town we might run into you at the Miner's.

That's true, but it's one of the reasons the whiners want to move the border. if I could subdivide my land I'd make a fortune, but state law prohibits it. and that's ok, it doesn't always have to be about me like some people think it should be.

Maybe I'm old school, but a hunter needs a fixed blade knife. or at least a quality folder. disposable razors don't get it.

Wife drew a 551 4th , she had the same points that were needed last year so no change on that one. Should be fun but I told her to keep expectations realistic.

Of course Darner did some illegal and unethical things. but saying his mistakes cancel his legitimate success makes no sense.

A great deal of how good of a hunter you are or were depends on when and where you lived. any chucklehead with a 30-30 could have killed more big bucks in Colorado in the day than anyone possibly could today. But for the best, Kirt Darner . nobody remembers his accomplishments because of...

Could be, depends on how many tags are available and how many applicants there are. and of course, if you have enough points you don't care about the seed number.
