I think GoHunt has been worth the cost from my perspective. I get a lot of benefit from the filtering and draw odds data and became aware of many opportunities because of their articles. Lots of folks will throw rocks at them for bringing additional non-residents to their state, but I think they...
A lot of good advice has been given already that I’ll echo. Don’t wait on your Wyoming points as the threshold will continue to creep up. There’s ample opportunity in Colorado for archery elk, so apply in the draw. There will be elk tags turned back in Idaho as other states move forward with...

I bought the inReach this year for my upcoming elk hunt and I've already used it while salmon fishing in Alaska as well as kayak fishing in Texas where I can't get a cell signal. Using it paired with a phone is the way to go for texting and for the map usage. Similar to others on the thread...
