CO Leftovers Posted!
I got lucky and got the mule deer tag I wanted. My other two buddies weren't so lucky. One was even farther along the process than me when his froze up and mine let me through, though it was a 35 minute process.- nturpin

Sportsman Alliance?
My point in this was I feel like this is an issue that should be decided on your local level by people that have a direct interest in your hunting/trapping. Not outside groups that want to see the banning of your local lifestyle. If you feel like there should be changes to your trapping...- nturpin

Sportsman Alliance?
The NRA very effectively treats any issue on guns as a war cry and gets all members involved. If hunters don’t get behind each other we will be cut off from our opportunities to be able to hunt. I used to be the opposite. I didn’t think that an issue for hunter in Maine would effect me. But I...- nturpin

Favorite Trail Cams Under $100
I run about 16 cameras in the summer and fall. I’ve had really good luck with moultrie cameras. I have a bunch of the ones that cost $60. I haven’t had one mess up on me yet and I’ve had them for about 3 years. I also have had good luck with the brownings. Muddy makes a pretty good low price...- nturpin

Elk hunting Questions
All, me and a small group of friends are going to bow hunt Colorado this year. We are all in our early 30's with zero western elk hunting experience. I have killed an elk in our home state of Ark. But, that's the extent. I have been doing the majority of the online scouting since I have the... -
Decoys - First Time Turkey Hunter
I turkey hunt or think about turkey hunting more than any type of hunting. A decoy is something that I use when I feel the opportunity is right. I have used a lot of different combinations and different types of decoys. I feel like the Primos gobstopper series are good looking for a pretty...- nturpin

Interesting trailcam photo
Let’s just say when I cook ground meat inside I am brought back to cleaning a rutting bull. Haha. And the steaks can be a little chewy. But we still eat elk once a week. -
Interesting trailcam photo
I'm not sure the exact poundage of meat. I know that he filled up a 160, 75 and 65 qt yeti with boned out meat. My and my fathers deep freezers were filled up with elk meat. -
Interesting trailcam photo
As some of you know I was lucky enough to draw an Arkansas elk tag this past year. I made good friends with the US forest service manager. Not long ago He sent me a trail camera photo from the elk I shot. The photo was from 2012. Our best guess was the elk was at least 9 years old. What do you... -
Cabela's Krotos Anybody
I have the Krotos. It is really clear. I picked mine up for around 500 on a sale. If I had to buy another one I would buy it again. I really can’t compare it to the viper but at the price range I purchased it at it was a lot better than the diamond back. -
CWD Found in Mississippi
Our wildlife biologist for our lease, is a prominent biologist for the southeast put it this way. Every state has cwd they just haven’t discovered it yet. The testing is so sporadic that any agency doesn’t have a good grasp on what is really going on. In Arkansas they only make testing mandatory... -
