    Sevr Broadheads...More Trouble Than They Are Worth

    I have a tight spot quiver (no second gripper) and have had no issues with the heads opening in the quiver. I was on a stalk earlier this year though and had an arrow knocked. I’m not sure exactly what happened but I was crawling through some grass and the blades hit something (I’m guessing a...

    Someone took a Gut Shot! - Then walked off...

    Wow. It amazes me how little respect some people have for animals. Honestly makes me sick to my stomach. Too bad you weren’t in a position to get a license plate number and turn him in. As far as putting it out of its misery, that’s a tough call. I do think that’s what’s right for the animal...

    What to shoot and not to shoot for bull elk?

    I am going to agree with the consensus here and say shoot the first mature bull you see. I am not familiar with the elk in that unit but any mature bull while I am hunting with friends and family is all I could ever ask for. A rifle tag at the end of September sounds like an amazing...

    200 yards and 5 minutes - An epic story of firsts

    Awesome story, thanks for the write up! I stand by the fact hunting is about the people you go with and the experience as a whole. That young man will remember the experience you gave him for the rest of his life.

    NM Goat Down

    Holy chit, I would have lost my marbles! No way I could have been on a stalk and not been worried about that.

    NM Goat Down

    Being the hardest hunt has to make it that much sweeter. It definitely sounds like there were some curveballs thrown your way but some quick decisions on your feet made all the difference. And a heck of a shot at 70yds! Congrats again and thanks for sharing.

    CO OTC tag vs WY no tag (and just tag along....)

    If you do go to CO, I would take the advice here and only buy one tag. If it were me, I would go WY though. I’m a born and raised CO resident and I wont hunt CO OTC anymore. To me, elk hunting is more about the experience in the mountains with family and friends. Killing an elk is great, but...

    Vortex Bino Question

    I’ll be the first to admit I am not a fan of vortex optics so can’t give any specifics on the binos themselves. I do think 10s are a really good option for the open country glassing and timber hunting you may be experiencing. I have a pair of 12 swaros and they are not good at all in thick timber.
