    WTS AGC Bino Harness & Free Phone Skope

    Hey guys, I have two items. 1) Phone Skope case for an iphone 7. It's in perfect condition. I bet I only used it a couple times. I sold my spotter and upgraded my iphone. So I don't need it. It's free to anyone who can use it. All I ask is that you pay the shipping and whatever padded...

    Alternate tags are now available. I was #75 of 1,500 on the combo elk tag alternate list and just purchased my tag. I didn't get an email, but figured I would check the site today and it was available for purchase.

    Familiar w/ CO Sheep unit S1 and 18?

    Thanks...I'll reach out to both of you. For what it's worth, GoHunt rates the sheep in S18 as slightly smaller than S1. I've heard there's a lot of hikers in both.

    Colorado Sheep Draw Results Today

    Friday brought polar extremes of emotions. It was a very lucky and unlucky day. In the morning I learned I drew CO unit 1 for sheep. Incredible! So many years. That afternoon my father passed away. He lives outside of Boulder and he was the main reason I picked that unit. He would have...

    Familiar w/ CO Sheep unit S1 and 18?

    I was fortunate enough to draw a Rocky Mountain sheep tag in Colorado for unit S1 (also good for unit S18 too). It's a Sept season, any weapon. The unit is just West of Fort Collins. Anyone have experience in that area... hunting sheep or even seeing sheep? I'm a non-resident, so scouting...

    WTS Rage Hypodermic's 100gr and more

    As much as people always debate expandables, I have loved Rage broad heads and had great success. They've been devastating for anything I shot with one and I love the long range accuracy you get with them. That said, I moved to a State the doesn't allow expendables, so it's a waste to keep...

    Boot Trade - Size 13 for something sized 11.5-12

    These are high quality Merrell Hiking / Hunting Boots. I don't recall the exact price, but I believe somewhere around $250-$300 give or take. I've been on a never ending quest to find a pair of boots that fit my feet for backpacking. The list of brands I've tried borders insanity. I bought...

    How far off the trail?

    2-5 miles....usually closer to 2 with a big obstacle that keeps 90% of the people away. I rarely see another hunter.

    Stone Glacier or Exo

    I tried SG, EXO and Kifaru. SG felt the best under heavy loads. Nice balance of rigidity and comfort. It fit really well and made the load feel lighter than it was. It was quite noticeable on longer hikes. The SG hip belt was best out of the three. I like EXO bag design better, but fit and...

    Hand held GPS vs OnX Hunt

    I have carried both my GPS and phone for two years. Decided to now only use my phone. The phone is so much better. I bought the Garmin Mini to pair with the phone so I can text with my wife during solo backcountry hunts. Loved the setup. I used OnX and Garmins earth mate for mapping. I...

    How did you pick your pack?

    Tough question and it took me over a year to decide and pull the trigger. Damn expensive, but the search for perfect boots is worse. I tried on Kifaru, EXO, Kuiu, Badlands, Stone Glacier and eberlstock. Kifaru, Kuiu and EXO I visited their home office and they sized me right there until they...

    Best down jacket- Brook Range Alpini

    Keep an eye on Sierra Trading Post because they often sell overstocks there as well. Not much there today, but I've seen it there in the past.
