    Winter kill update

    Agreed! Short term sacrifice for hunters, but the antelope and deer herds need to recover.

    Winter kill update

    Coming in late here, but I would go hunt now. Most of the deer that will die are the yearlings, or the older deer 7+ years old. There is mortality in the other groups, but much less significant. There will still be a lot of 4-6 year old bucks that survive, and with all this snow, the feed should...

    Wyo Task Force - Nonres Comments!

    Thanks Buzz. That is actually my biggest concern. If it takes 8-10 years to get a general elk or deer tag in the area we have been going, then that’ll have a huge impact on my group buying points. We’re all 44-48 years old and that would give us only ~ 2 cycles through the points system while...

    Wyo Task Force - Nonres Comments!

    I get why both sides feel the way they do. If I was a resident I’d be for it, but I’m not and I’m against it. With that said, I coordinate a lot of the planning for my group of 5-6 guys in our mid 40’s that get points every year out west in Wyoming and Colorado. I would say that we’ll probably...

    What is the best piece of advice tht you have ever been given?

    “If you marry her, you’ll be miserable the rest of your life!” I had a friend who watched me get in another argument with an ex-fiancé who flew off the handle at everything. She stormed out of my apartment and my buddy looked me straight in the eye and said those words. ive been married for 18...

    Elk for a good friend

    Congrats Buzz! Nothing better than a hunting camp with great friends. I’d say it’s about as good as life gets!

    Four bearded fools on a Blue Ribbon adventure

    Awesome story! To me the adventure and the experience is worth way more than the animal. You had one hell of an adventure for sure!

    Hunting for Deer in the Mountains

    so, I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt since it looks like you just joined on September 11th, 2020. If there is one person on this forum that knows what cartridge is effective at taking down a mountain mule deer, it’s Snowy..... just for shits and giggles, you should search his past posts...

    Wyoming Deer success!

    I could not imagine not going after those bulls! Good on you guys for trying to help out a fellow hunter! truth be told, I’ve never had a bad experience with other hunters before.Most of the guys up in those remote places work together to make sure that everyone is successful. It seemed like...
