    I Know This Is LRH... But What Is The Shortest Distance You Have Taken A Live Target?

    The terminal performance of the 1/2 ton pickup is devastating on game at 55mph (about 80 fps for equal comparison to bullets). The front end does expand and break apart a little on impact, but DRT results on deer. Placement isn’t really important as the front end pretty hits the whole deer at...

    I Know This Is LRH... But What Is The Shortest Distance You Have Taken A Live Target?

    I’ve taken two deer with a truck. I had to get pretty close. 😀 Aside from that 20- 30 yards. A couple deer with a bow and one at about 30 with a muzzleloader. I had a bull elk come into my calls at 5 yds, but he wasn’t legal. It was pretty intense though!

    It's a whiskey tasting kinda of night ...

    It’s the 10 year. I have never seen the 17 on a shelf anywhere but have been keeping an eye open for it.

    It's a whiskey tasting kinda of night ...

    I found Eagle Rare at the store today! It’s tough to find on the shelf near me, and I have seen it over $100/bottle so I got a couple at $60. I don’t buy it when I see the crazy markup. I thought about buying all 3 they had but left one for someone else. The two I got will last awhile.

    Blonde joke

    A blonde calls her boyfriend and says, "Please come over here and help me. I have a killer jigsaw puzzle, and I can't figure out how to get it started." Her boyfriend asks, "What is it supposed to be when it's finished?" The blonde says, "According to the picture on the box, it's a tiger." Her...

    Colorado draw results are posting

    I remember the feeling when I drew my Rocky Mountain Bighorn tag a few years ago. A friend texted and said no sheep tag and asked how I did. I had no email. I went to CPW’s site and my points went to zero but no indication at that time on the account page. I assumed I was waiting on my +1...

    I am still in the blackout period on RM Sheep, no dice on desert sheep or goat. Good luck and we expect stories from those that drew 😀

    Science of rucking

    Leading up to hunting, and I am no skinny guy, I walk every morning around the neighborhood for about 60 minutes with a 40-45lb pack. I will do a longer trek on a weekend, usually 5 to 8 miles and drive up to a higher elevation. I find this gets me mostly ready. I am In Colorado already so...
