TTT --- this is an awesome truck - ready to go -

let him go and the next guy will drop'm

there are no elk or deer in unit 8 - everyone just enjoys driving the back roads because you rarely breakdown before 6 cars . trucks come crusin by. one of the most road hunted units in the state!

wife 21 oct

guess I didn't see the comparison chart thing - lol oh well not the first time I goofed / probably not the last recant // the bottom 3 are all coues - I didn't see the muley byline

"the good news - the commission is working on a program to turn in a tag and then be next in line the following yr." what the heck does that mean - that they get to go to the head of the line and not have to go thru the regular draw like the rest of us ,just because they turned it back in!??? Lets hope they are not that stupid !

to be honest - I think it may be a hybrid - the tail is deceiving- rarely do you see the black at the top and the tip of coues and it doesn't have the white hair - if she wagged/flagged that thing nobody would see squat!! and look at the size of them ears - huge compared to her face -

the critter lick site states all over the place this is an--- ATTRACTANT its a powder of combined ingredients - I'd check with G&F could be what they are saying is illegal- its an attractant made specifically for deer ~~ nice pics

300Ultramag Even though you may be wheelchair bound for this hunt - It seems to me your are capable of going on this hunt , even though it's not the way you normally hunt. Sorry that this "rodeo" has changed your plans Make the miracle happen - on your first elk hunt - even though confined to a wheelchair you successfully tag an elk of a lifetime - with the help of dedicated and loving friends. It's not what you planned or envisioned but you can do this ! DO not let it drag you down - the MENTAL- stay positive - may be your biggest battle . Best of LUCK

most likely this Friday if not by next Friday they are still putzin with callin CC cancels

really a great donation from PSE for this seminar way cool seeing little guys with recurve bows- twice their size - lol great seminar

any plumbing torch can heat rebar enough to bend - most likely bottled air /acetylene set-up for cutting metal to be able to get it hot enough to shape

a pseudorandom generator - generates a sequence that is not truly random , because it is completely determined by a relatively small set of initial values- its more designed for the speed of the draw than truly a random draw of numbers a small set of initial values - may include an alphabetic software the random number has to be assigned according to either the alphabet - more likely the first letter of the last name or another complete set of numbers assigned to each person

do not you have to turn in a tooth to age the bears anymore ???

landed on his head when he fell out of his first tree climb with the spine fused to the skull -- kind of limits possible head movement - one would think

ok fine - BUT HOW DOES THE SYSTEM DRAW THE RANDOM NUMBERS 'is it alphabetical ? how do I get the random # - that's what I want to know - if its the same system since forever - it will always start the random # draw the same way - since its running the same program

that's a very nice buck

one hit for deer - a dec repeat is possible but more likely a oct actually hopin its for my wife - first time I put her in- in a few yrs

As far as a pop-up left out after season -1 yr. simply take it down and leave it by a tree a few yrds off with a note inside stating whatever your feeling maybe at the time . I try not to disturb others during the hunt and hope others respect my areas ,if they see me we are not all the same ,as the thread shows, I see nothing wrong with hunting the spot and hope he has forgotten about it!

In a nutshell the new system will impact the draw the fact of the matter is a NEW program / state of the art software - will not run exactly like the old program has for the past 20+ yrs therefore odds shouldn't be affected - but your chances of the new program changing things up is going to happen hopefully guys with 6 - 8 10 points will actually stand a better chance it seems obvious to a lot of us its the same guys yr in and out drawing and the same guys getting more bonus points I 'm looking forward to a NEW program / software to run the draw

you do not have to email Scott - call G&F and ask for Scott or use directory option - leave a message I did this and Scott took the time to return my call and we chatted for a few minutes. He and his group are trying to get as much information / opinions/ suggestions as possible to present to the commission . Anyone and everyone should also send your "thoughts" directly to the Commissioners too!!!

try Perkins Tank maybe JD

I always thought it was the resolution of the picture - on high it takes detailed pic so you may get less in number -it takes up more (KB) space on card lower setting maybe not as super clear a picture but more room on the card for more pics

in case you didnt see it well - I actually attended the meeting - I know - pass the smelling salts to all those in need We are getting the portal come jan 2015 - basically a done deal it a new up to date- new technological website -that lets you login and interactively get and give G&F information on your interests - with possible access to buyin licenses - boat renewal etc - make it as detailed as you desire for yourself as for the hunting club - no one person was really excited or even thought it would fly . we can get early access to the draw using our cc the main discussion cover surrendered tags I guess I was the only one who really do want hunters to just be able to return tags - minus tag cost and keep ther bonus points heres what I sent in as my comment If they allow surrendered tags - there must be guidelines and penalties involved. besides loss of tag fees - 1- 25 dollar reprocessing fee 2- a loss of loyalty points for 5 yrs 3 - preferably a medical /doctors excuse that you physically can not hunt -then no loss of loyalty points or bonus points 4 - at least 2 weeks before season starts - not really fair to the new guy if its at a moments notice 5 -once in a lifetime - one species otherwise hunters will abuse the process point of interest - lets say of the 26,000 elk tags - .01 % decide for whatever reason to return there tags what will the cost of trying to get 260 new hunters a chance to go and how long will it take what if its 10 % can the department honestly be able basically redraw 2,600 tags in a minimum of time -say giving Each called person TWO or more tries to contact ? allowing surrendered tags will ultimately be a total pain in the rear if you do not implement a stiff penalty. now that's just elk - figure in all the other game species You'd need a new staff and a dedicated department to pull it off they are opening a can of worms that they may not be able to control I think that the only real reason to surrender a tag is medical- doctors excuse if they are to maintain bonus points other wise we all know anything can and does sometimes happen to change plans - lose everything -get over it A lot of hunters may use the surrender to draw a better unit or during better conditions etc. will happen! less likely if they know there are pentalties THINK ABOUT IT DOES THE G&F HAVE THE EXTRA MANPOWER AND RESOURCE ,BUDGET TO PROVIDE THIS SERVICE!! a lot of others mentioned / argued what difference does it make G&F will resell the tags its not fair to the next guy if he only has a few days or a weks notice ifsome hunter sits on a tag for 3 months before deciding next was to whom do these tags go it should be just like the cc turned down the next guy in line for the regular draw not some guy with money to get the first chance cuz in the the so called members club several times the club was referred to a way for the "LAZY" to pay extra to get things done, he really didn't want to do or really have time for or really didnt know much about - and get the bonus of first choice cuz hes a member I stated aloud that's to me that's BULL CHIT also the lawyers / guides / retails new laws thing was basically about legal paid advertising - I stated the wording wasnt really clear go to the meeting get a better idea I voted NO on the club idea' there is no new funding for the club or the portal - all taken out of existing fees i also commented that the sportsmen /hunters of this state would like to se somekind of improvement - spend funds to actually get a draw sytem/technology that would actually work and meet the set deadlines on time spend funds on fixing a problem not starting a new one

Belize - is that in Colorado ? lol
