    Criteria for Unit Picking

    Well, I've got paralysis by analysis again. I geek out a bit and have made my own Excel sheets for looking at all the deer data in different ways trying to figure out where I want to go. Now my head just spins and I have no idea. Trying to decide before the deadline coming soon. Talking CO...

    CO 60 Archery & Weather

    Greetings All. I drew 60 archery mule deer on second choice this year and am wondering about the herd in that area and how dependent this hunt would be on snow falling in the higher country to the west in Utah. Is 60 more of a migration unit that sees more deer in the later seasons? Or is...

    Backcountry vehicle traffic questions

    When I pull up the MVUM maps from the Ranger Districts, or looking at OnX for the motorized trails, is it allowed to pull just off the trail and park anywhere? I’ve only ever parked at trailheads or obvious parking areas. If it’s allowed, seems like it may not be wise just to park on the side...

    Glassing Distance Question

    Quick question on glassing distance for muleys. Using a 20-60x65 spotter, is it reasonable to expect to tell whether a buck is worth going after from 2.5 miles away? Not necessarily judging a score or points, but just by size of frame, etc. If not, what would be your max distance for making...

    FL Uncompahgre vs Sawtooth

    I’m debating between these 2 jackets for an early season high country hunt. My understanding on the Uncompahgre is that it’s great for situations where I can be still, but not moving thru an area where it’s prone to rips, tears, etc. And the opposite for the Sawtooth and that it’s a bit more...
