    WE WON!

    Hey Rokcast world! it’s a good day when we can defeat one of the biggest threats mounted against the North American Wildlife Conservation model in decades. Colorado Voters recently defeated Colorado Proposition 127 which would have taken management of Colorado’s mountain lions, bobcats--and potentially all huntable species--out of the hands of wildlife biologists. It was a big win for hunters. The defeat of Colorado Proposition 127 was led in part by Dan Gates of the CRWM here, among others. Dan was a frequent guest on the Rokcast here Podcast Archives - Rokslide during the last year, helping hunters understand what was at stake if Proposition 127 would’ve passed. Today we host Dan again to tell us how we won, and what the future holds if we want to ensure sound wildlife management continues in the USA. Besides a big thanks to some of the industry names that came together like HOWL, Steve Rinella/Meateater Randy Newburg, GoHunt, Cam Hanes, Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, Derek Wolf, Jason Matzinger, the Mule Deer Foundation and many others, we want to thank some of the Rokslide members who helped out too. From money donated, to time spent, to talking to non-hunters, here are just a few (there were many more) of the Rokslide members who helped defeat Colorado Proposition 127: Corbland Bluumoon gburk Ucsdryder wyogoat LFC911 Nicaburns sndmn11 BTLowry Poser sodaksooner h2so4 Turkeygetpwnd38 ElDiablito Thanks to these and all these Rokslide members who helped defeat this major threat to scientifically based wildlife management. You can view just a few of the many threads created by members on the Rokslide forum here Please continue to support C.R.W.M. here as there are already more battles to win. Travis Hobbs wraps up this episode with a preview to an upcoming episode he's working on about managing for better bucks without continuing to just decrease licenses.

    Mule Deer Rut Update & Buck Story

    Robby hosts today's episode.  He gives a Mule Deer Rut update and how it relates to the moon phase. Tapping into previously published whitetail research by the late Charles Alsheimer, Robby relates it to what he and other hunters have observed in the field. Robby also dives into a recent successful buck hunt and an unsuccessful one too, further illustrating the difference in simply moving in deer country and actual still-hunting. He also documents the furthest distance between two sightings of the same buck in the same season but outside of the migration.  Even he was surprised. Finally, he talks about the typically necessary amount of time a hunter needs to give a fresh snow before looking for those big blocky tracks that make our hearts jump. He wraps up the episode with a discussion on "hunting burnout", something that is experienced by many hunters who push the limits.  Learn to recognize burnout and how to keep it from ruining your hunt. From the mule deer rut update, to a buck story, to managing burnout, there is something for everyone in this episode. Rokcast is powered by onX Hunt.

    Robby hosts today's Rokcast. He's been in mule deer country a lot lately, so these tips are hot off the press. He talks about the short window of opportunity to find big bucks that leaf-off offers.

Robby tells a story of finding bucks right after leaf-off.  Listen in to also understand the difference between just moving in mule deer country and effectively still hunting. Learn to hunt leaf-off and polish your still hunting game on this Rokcast episode.  He also mentions a great buck recently taken by James Yates. Rokcast is powered by onX Hunt.

    Vote No On Prop. 127

    Vote No On Prop. 127 This is one of our most--very most--important episodes of 2024.  Sam Weaver hosts Dan Gates of Coloradans for Responsible Wildlife Managment (C.R.W.M.) Dan is the tip of the spear in defeating Colorado's proposed ban on mountain lion and bobcat hunting: Proposition #127.  Dan lays out why every voter in Colorado needs to Vote No On Prop. 127. This Proposition is worded in a way that it will set a precedent to take away your right to hunt all big game in Colorado and eventually all of the United States. Please take the time to listen to this issue and pitch in where you can, whether it is helping fund C.R.W.M, sharing on your social media, and most effectively, talking to your non-hunting friends, ESPECIALLY IF YOU LIVE IN COLORADO! Please do all you can to help get the word out on Vote No On Prop. 127.

    Marlon Holden: High Level Mule Deer Stalking

    Robby hosts Marlon Holden on today's episode. Marlon, also known as Graylight Hunter on Instagram, was on the Rokcast in 2023 here. That was one our most downloaded episodes for the year. Listen to today's episode and see why he's so popular.  With more than 60 mule deer bucks taken with a bow in less than 20 years, Marlon Holden is beyond a high level of experience in the mule deer mountains. Find out why some of our preconceived notions about hunting mule deer might be wrong--like shooting at a feeding buck vs. a buck with his head up and alert. The answer to this choice will surprise you, along with other observations Marlon has made over nearly two decades of hunting big mule deer with a bow.  Muzzleloader and even rifle hunters will benefit from this episode! Marlon is also the creator of the Graylight app and you’ll hear more about it in this episode. Robby also talks about why all hunters need to VOTE NO ON PROPOSITION 127 in Colorado. He also gives mention of many of the successful hunters who tagged out on good archery bucks so far this season. Robby offers some of his own tips on seeing more big bucks and getting the most out of your high-end cooler. Rokcast is powered by onX Hunt.
