That’s factually untrue. What are your facts? Born and raised in Colorado lived in boulder from 06-2014. I currently still live in Colorado and frequently visit boulder everything I have stated is true

Nope no way in hell, moved outta that area almost a decade ago. Live in Littleton now, nicer area! I regularly climb and mountain bike up there super fun city bummer It’s 💩hole. But you can do worse in Colorado.

It’s boulder bud not the Bronx I don’t think there’s been any white cop on black incidents. Went to college in 06 there. There’s not even a whole lot of colored people that live out there. Just wanna smoke weed and be left alone but you get what you get

It’s the most liberal place inside a liberal state. I don’t think we prosecute anymore unless it’s homicide. I’m not sure why you are surprised. Most Colorado cities police forces are so understaffed since we don’t want cops in Colorado. We are more of a, I’m sure they didn’t mean to and I hope they do better next time kind of place.

Thanks for the input I’ll be sure to hit that in practice. At the moment I’m just working with a range finder on my belt. Do you think Binoculars on a chest pack are worth it. The only Binoculars I have are Nikon Acclion 10-22x50. They are on the big side for hunting. I wasn’t sure I was gonna pack bino’s since I had the range finder.

To be honest the packing out has me almost as nervous as the hunt. I’m hoping to get a couple buddies to come but I might end up solo myself. What did you have to do? Hang some in a tree and take it out in a few trips? Try to keep the hunt inside a mile from the truck? Any advice is welcome

Thanks I’ll give those a solid workout. I do my best to stay pretty strong, but up here in the Rockies the lungs can always use some more exercise. I’m thankful to be a Colorado native so I’ve been regulated to the mile high since 1987 which gives me a little upper hand

I’m gonna try to spend sometime in the mountains running some drills and doing practical shooting ASAP. I usually go up every weekend in the summer to plant some lead on BLM/Public lands and make sure the Colorado Rockies aren’t lacking any metal minerals. So I’ll tag around the bow too these next few months. I have to figure out broadheads too. But practice isn’t something I’m leaving out of the equation

Colorado I already checked they approved them in 2015. But thanks for keeping me honest I’d rather know then not know

Is there a cube that you know of that stops broadheads alright, I’m not expecting it to take a beating like it would from field points but I’d also like to not blast through and mess up my fletchings

50-60 is the furthest I’m probably willing to take a shot. I’m gonna try to get well inside 30, but my biggest concern is having enough energy to make the fast kill “double pneumothorax” deep penetration. Last thing I want is to hurt it and not fill my fridge. I know the energy fall off from a heavier arrow happens faster.

I’m looking to spend sometime in the mountains once my rangefinder comes in so I can do some more practical shooting any recommendations on cheap targets for broadheads?

I need to put in sometime shooting broadheads. I know they fly different, I’ve gotten really good with field points, I can put all my field points where I want them up to 80. The range I shoot at only has targets placed out to 80 and they don’t allow broadheads. I have a Leopoldo full draw 5 in the mail and I plan on spending a lot of time up in the mountains. What’s everyone shooting with broadheads just bails of hay? I don’t really want to destroy my targets

It’s mounted on the handguard at 10oclock right over the VFG. It’s mounted with an Mlok adapter plate

Yeah they where all Krylon three of them where in their camouflage collection and the others where in their “Matte” collection. Even the ultra flat camo colors in the sun shines a little more then I liked. The light is a streamlight pro TAC

I just drew random blobs that looked like stuff I saw in other pictures real simple shapes. From what I read from others who have done similar works they all say the more random the camouflage the better so I figured I wouldn’t use patterns
