I have an El Coyote 20 degree that I picked up about 4 years ago. Absolutely love the bag and the customer service is fantastic. You can have it custom made with whatever colors and size you want and they make the process extremely simple.
Just make sure you get a good pad with a high R value.
Buddy and I drew cow tags in the Little Mountain area East of Flaming Gorge (Unit 31). The maps show a ton of roads/trails all over Little Mountain and most of the unit. Is it worth dragging the UTV out there or can most of those roads be driven with a truck?
My bear from last spring filled a Yeti 105 and about half of another 65 qt cooler. Quarters were still bone in and the skull was still in the hide. You will want to keep the skull for sure. Meat care is top priority, but that hide needs to be on ice ASAP. With bears, I think the hide will...
I have started using Gohunt as a tool for red flagging tags to avoid. Basically use the strategy articles to eliminate units to look into and apply for. It is amazing how large their following has become and how much trust folks put into their advice.

This is a OIL tag if you harvest. if not, its a 5 year waiting period...
It's pretty wild how wound up some people get about places they've never been or things they'll never do... I'd say it's a slow day at the office for a lot of the folks in that thread. :LOL:
Wait, the guy who lives 20 minutes from the Columbia Basin is going to look down his nose at Nebraska's irrigation? Let's compare our water sources and decide which has more of an impact on the "natural" world.
I really hope NGPC releases good stats on this hunt when it's over. I would love to see # of res/nonres tags sold vs number of elk killed. At the very least, this will be entertaining to watch play out!
This is a small part of the unit on the outskirts of the majority of the elk habitat. It's not elk habitat, it's almost entirely irrigated ag land... nothing but pivots and fields of ag from road ditch to road ditch The G&P constantly pushes hunters to that area during the regular season and in...
