Minox DTC 500 Trail Camera Pics

Just a few pictures from the over a thousand that our Minox DTC 500 Trail Camera took overlooking an eastern CO waterhole for the last few months.




 Great dawn and dusk low light performance.

 Lots of Dogs out there on the prairie.




 Yep that's a Bird in flight. Hows that for image quality.

 The Coyotes look like they spent plenty of time harassing the Antelope during the winter.



 Bird Missile!
So many doggies!

Also just as a little heads up we are going to be having a huge Minox sale starting next week including trail cameras.

Tomorrow I will post what items we are going to have.

A Good Year for Deer at Gannett Ridge

After a long, difficult and unsuccessful September Elk season the entire crew at Gannett Ridge was ready for a fun October of chasing deer in both Colorado and Wyoming.

 

 Josh Soholt 2012 Wyoming Deer 


Josh was able to start the month off with bang bringing down a big Wyoming buck 45 Min into the season with his rifle.






Tyler Matthews CO Mule Deer 

 There isn't much of a story behind my buck. I only made 2 stocks for the season and hunted a total of around 1 hour for the entire season. We were hunting during with second rifle season tags and the first stock I made that morning was with my rifle but wasn't able to find a clear shooting lane. Later that day around 3 in the after noon we found this buck and 2 other young  bucks out browsing. After a short stock I was able to make a 60 yard shot with my Bowtech Invasion the buck only made it around 60 yards and piled up.




Sam Soholt 2012 Colorado Mule Deer

 Opening morning Sam and I flipped a quarter for how got to shoot first and Sam won. Only about 30 min into opening morning we spotted 2 bucks out feeding on an open hillside. Using our Hunting GPS mapping program on our GPS we were able to determine that they were right on the edge of a BLM track. By the time Sam was in position he was only able to take this great 4x4 with one shot from a custom 300 win mag that Matt at Sawtooth rifles was nice enough to let us borrow for this hunt.

Minox BL 15x56 Binoculars


Just finished up a new video about the Minox BL 15x56 binoculars.  Incredible German glass and for the money these are pretty much impossible to beat.  You can see more information about them on our website if you click here!

Minox Hunting Optics Write Up

Wild Sheep Foundation Minox Hunting Optics Write up

 

The national Wild Sheep Foundation put together a fairly extensive write up regarding the Minox Hunting Optics which is a good read if you are in the market for any new optics.

But I can summarize, Minox Hunting Optics = Unrivaled quality and value for the money.

Read full article here.

Also, if anyone from the National Wild Sheep Foundation reads this post (doubtful), if you have any Desert Bighorn Sheep tags laying around (even more doubtful). I would be very, very grateful and would send you back an in depth write up of the hunt including many high quality pictures. Just think about it could be a win win for everyone involved!

Photo of the Day 32


So here is a photo of me on my way back up from setting a Minox Trail Cam.  At this point I'm thinking to myself, that was a really bad idea to go all the way in there just for that.  Getting excited to check that camera in a few days!

Photo of the Day 28


Here is a similar picture to what I posted the other day but zoomed in.  Crazy how small you can feel when you look at stuff like this.
