Health of BLM lands
As an out of towner, I am no expert, but still feel from my experiences that its pretty much the norm when seeing a beautifully managed parcel of land to guess correctly that its private ranch, vs seeing a patch of overgrazed wasteland and guessing correctly it is BLM.- Bullshot

2024 Utah Draw Results
I am a little baffled by how little I am bothered by another across the board unsucc and amused by any NR upset by it, when so few tags are issued and we all know, or should, going in. Utah just remains a someday, OIL kind of state for me and most others. Good luck to those in the WY elk draw (i...- Bullshot

Last day to change or withdraw app
I helped the odds and withdrew. Quota was cut in my preferred zone so only random was possible. Figured I’d keep accumulating points instead, which allowed me to put in for Utah, since I don’t want to risk drawing both in same year. -

throwing good app money after bad and repeat
Went to the river again locally and saw, cast to, and then hooked (and lost) a large muskie on 8lb test from shore. My heart raced more from this brief encounter than I’ve experienced on many of my western hunts and without the 30 hour drive and thousands spent…. Motivated by this, I went to a...- Bullshot

throwing good app money after bad and repeat
I have been getting much more back into fishing, local archery, and local muzzleloader than in the recent past. I think its like anything, you “sense” the need for change before you “decide” to change. Then, the change feels natural. Spending thousands of dollars on app fees in multiple states...- Bullshot

Cicadas
Experienced a bunch of emergences from different broods. Amazing though sometimes irritating experience. Lasts a few weeks. For all you subsistence types, if you really want to immerse yourself in it, go ahead and hunt some newly emerged and moulted cicadas, rip off their wings and throw in an...- Bullshot

Tough year…new normal!
Most of us do! I continue to bite the bullet in several states, as long as I am getting points and I believe I actually may draw in the long haul. I bailed on NV, its a state I guess I will never hunt. Same with ND. I don’t apply to OR or WA or CA ever, or MT or ID most years. If I ever draw...- Bullshot
