When I write about special hunts and draw odds, I’m usually focused on rifle hunts. I vastly prefer to use my rifles over any other weapon as they are more interesting to me than archery and muzzleloading equipment, but in reality I use all three weapons. However, I do not hunt with primitive weapons solely for the challenge, the only reason I’ll pick one up is to expand my hunting options.

One of the simplest, but most important tasks of muzzleloading is reproducibly measuring out a set charge of muzzleloading propellant. Over the years there have been a variety of powder measure designs with some manufacturers even offering preformed powder pellets that can simply be dropped into your smoke pole with a minimal amount of fuss. However some states disallow the use of preformed charges during muzzleloader season thus leaving the need to reproducibly measure out a black powder charge. For this review we'll take a look at three different powder measures offered by Thompson Center Arms.
Modern muzzleloading offers an array of propellants and projectile choices. One popular choice of projectile is the conical bullet and in states where sabots are illegal during muzzleloader season, conical can be the best choice.

Most folks have a finite amount of time that they can dedicate to hunting and want to maximize their opportunities when out in the woods. While deer and elk habitats have a fair amount of overlap, I prefer to focus on just one species, as putting yourself in deer and elk country is often a bit of a compromise. However, combination hunts make sense to many folks who can only dedicate an extended weekend or are coming from out of state and can only budget one big trip in a year. The prospect of going home empty handed is tough, so the concept of having tags for two species is very appealing. But you have to be careful about the areas you select if you want a legitimate shot at both species.
Hopefully you now understand Colorado's big game drawing process. What I’m going to attempt to do this week is to show you how to apply that knowledge into some application strategies for Colorado.
While driving out for our last big game hunt of the year, my hunting partners and I have been kicking around ideas about how to incorporate all of our out of state in-laws, kinfolk, long lost and legitimate friends into the coming year’s hunts. The challenge of showing them a good hunt is very satisfying. We’ve kept them abreast of our hunting exploits, and it’s difficult to give out a blanket “no” to those who want in on our hunting adventures. Anyway, what I’m going to walk you through in this article are some of the variables we try to consider when planning hunts. It’s always a delicate balancing act.
