Montana HD 455 - Beartooth WMA
I have a bunch of mt bikes, but just for hunting I really like the fat bikes now. The one in the 1st pic I posted is what I use for hunting now. It has 4.8" tires and is a hard tail and hard fork. You get plenty of suspension from the tires for hunting purposes and pulls a trailer better than a... -

Montana HD 455 - Beartooth WMA
I have used them a lot over the years, but I am also an avid Mt Biker. They are one more thing to break down, so you better have a plan if it does. -

Montana HD 455 - Beartooth WMA
Correct, no motor vehicles. And you can not camp in the WMA other than the one designated spot. It is not a day hunt on foot area. You will spend too much time and energy just trying to get back to the elk and then hours walking out. -

Montana HD 455 - Beartooth WMA
455 is not really a unit you can effectively hunt on foot, especially during the archery season. You're looking at many miles just to get back where the elk will start then you have to hunt UP from there. Can be done on a bike to at least get back to where you can start hunting, but trust me... -

Colorado Unit 49
If more guys would learn this(how to actually elk hunt) and stop trying to learn to elk hunt off youtube, they'd really up their success, kill bigger bulls and the elk woods would be a much better place ;) Glad to hear you figured out one of the secrets. -

Wyoming Unit 7
I got an email from WY about input for Unit 7 going to General next year. Thoughts on that? Seems like it be a real shit show, at least for a while. -

What to do with 8 Wyoming elk points?
Yeah I get it. My 20 year old son has 9 points, but he just has not had the time yet. Now he's in a place where I don't like any of his options under 10-11. I'm hoping the special increase goes thru and I can buy him one good WY tag in his life. I have hunted WY 8 times for bulls over the last... -

What to do with 8 Wyoming elk points?
A guy with 8 should have already burned them 2-3 times on general tags! Truth. -

What to do with 8 Wyoming elk points?
Honestly you guys are overthinking a very simple math problem. A limited supply of NR tags and an ever growing demand. Every draw system has its pluses and minuses, but in the end there are just more people vying for the supply. I personally like bonus points, but even those draws like Nev. have... -

2022 MT Mule Deer Hunt
Not to be a smart ass, but I guess you inserted "rut" into what I actually said. "Hopefully the weather next week will bring them out." I don't clame to be a great deer hunter, but pretty sure temps close to 0 deg will have the deer on their feet and moving more during the day. I could be... -

2022 MT Mule Deer Hunt
Just spent the last week in the breaks. Lots of little bucks running around the first week of the season, but no big bucks. Then with the pressure they kinda dissapeared and there was no sign of the rut starting to bring the bucks back out of hiding. Hopefully the weather next week will bring... -

Wyoming General Elk - Have to start my hunt a week into the season… Any tips?
Looks like it's going to get colder, but not really seeing much moisture in any of the forcasts. I will be hunting a unit that opens tomorrow, but after that probabaly headed back up around Dubois for the remainder of the season(if I don't get one this weekend) and ws hoping for some snow to... -

Wyoming elk hunt recap
Seeing a lot of the same in WY. All last week I was into bulls that were solo and back in their hidy holes. They are still bugling, but not a cow in sight. I spent the week of the 11-17th antelope hunting with my dad thinking it would be prime after and now feels like I missed something. From...
