    Muley Hunt Outfitter Help

    Holy cow fifteen thousand per person. I need to find a new job! My first thought would be to look into one of the reservation guides. That might be a good option if you haven't already looked into it.

    Turkeys!!! Let’s see them!

    Persistence finally paid off in Kentucky! Finally on day 3 I heard the first gobble. This place I'm hunting is Jake heavy called in 9 Jakes the first couple days. This morning after hearing a gobble in the distance I made a set up and called in 5 more Jakes. They putted off but I remained where...

    A word to the wise is sufficient

    What If she's promising hunting land? These poor ladies are just looking for a guy to hunt with and somehow have hundreds of acre's that nobody else has access too! No it doesn't sound too to be true.

    New to WY pronghorn

    Due to reduction in tags and increase in hunters nobody here is gonna hand out information. You gotta do your own research. Fortunately Wyoming gives you most all info on their website. I just started trying to hunt Wyoming 3 years ago and still haven't drawn. Just building points and trying to...

    Are hunter numbers down?

    Probably but I still don't think you will ever be able to get an accurate data. For example where I live if you own 5 acres or more you don't have to purchase a hunting license to hunt your own property. Amish never buy a hunting license but they put a hurtin on game year round because of their...

    Are hunter numbers down?

    Yes mostly correct, there has been quite a few lost to development, more houses on the landscape and subdivisions being added. But for example what used to be a 500 acre farm being hunted by 7 or 8 people is now only being hunted by 1 or 2. So where do the other 5 or 6 go? They quit or go to...

    Are hunter numbers down?

    This is what I'm dealing with where I live in Kentucky! What was once easy access to small and large farms is now gone. Outfitters have came in and offered outrageous prices to lease land. Also wealthy out of staters have leased what's left. The farmers who also hunt only want large antlered...

    Beyond a dream, what's your ultimate hunt?

    Don't know why but I've always dreamed of hunting any species in Yellowstone or Grand tetons! Maybe because I was a history major in college and the stories I read of mountain men and officers in U.S. army hunting that untouched land just pulled at me. Of course I realize I was born way too late...

    Be honest about your Wyoming elk app!

    Regular for me, swinging for the fences on 3 points. No way I could afford that special price and probably never will. If regular price goes up then I will just have to bail out. Some dreams are meant to be just that.

    goHunt updating draw odds!

    I've contemplated using go hunt or top rut but haven't so far. I kinda find it fun trying to figure out the draw odds using my own research but that hasn't paid off as of yet. My question is, is it really worth the extra money if they are giving you the same information they are giving everyone...

    Louisiana Man

    Welcome from Kentucky! Was just in natchitoches during Christmas. Y'all in Louisiana sure know how to cook. Can't wait to get back down there maybe this time I can squeeze in a gator hunt!

    Quitters

    I guess I'm a quitter too! I quit applying for elk tags in my home state of Kentucky 3 years ago. Just got tired of never being drawn but watching the same TV hunters get tags year after year really pissed me off. Really wished I had learned about opportunities in the western states before age...

    Deer - lets see em

    No not at all, if the right side would have matched the left he would have scored 146' but he scored 135'. G2 on left side was 12'

    Deer - lets see em

    Private land whitetail here in Kentucky but might as well been public with 14 people on 98 acres. Grateful to the landowner who gave me permission but he also gives it to many more. It was hard finding a spot with no hunters but most of them chose fields while I chose to hunt a pinch point in...

    The Kentucky Elk EXPANSION - A RMEF Film

    Thanks for your report, us residents have been screaming this for the last several years. But it seems to always fall on deaf ears. Just curious but how many elk were seen during your hunt? We're they mostly on private? Thanks
