    Bad stories good lessons

    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...

    Posting ??

    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...

    Which bull would you take?

    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"

    Advice for my daughter and wife?

    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...

    What help would you take?

    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)...

    Scenario on the Mountain ... What do you do?

    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...

    Unit 66 deer 2nd season

    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...

    Reading Draw Results

    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...

    Colorado Unit 28 General information

    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...

    Colorado Unit 28 General information

    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...

    The Consequences

    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...
