I would say, the best advice is know your limitations, and be prepared in the event of disaster. Minimize, Mitigate Risk, etc. I posted a similar thread a couple of years ago and a smartazz chimed in with some comments. I've comfortable going solo as I have been doing it for years, but as...
I grew up in ETex and still hunt there, and yes they are viable but during the week is somewhat better when the hunting pressure is lower. I quit Dove Hunting about 20 years ago due to what you described. My problem is when I go to etex I want to bring the boat and go fishing.
Congrats on job. As long as your voting Republican, we need you.
Hunting wise public land is very poor and leases are ridiculous. But we do have some great fishing all over.
Unit 6 (Area east of Laramie) is showing to have Cow Tags available, and the maps online for that area of the National Forest showed several trailheads.

Not sure what ur getting at with that response... but if you need to know her cousin was killed about 10 years ago in a hunting accident when he was by himself. He called his wife from his cell phone and talked to her while he was dying. By the time they got to him he was dead.
So yes.. Wifey...
LOL... funny thread but true.. I told my son last year that those tighty whities he was wearing was going to cause problems.. he did not believe me.. but he looked miserable after a couple of days.
Hooking up with Team Cush this year.. and hang with those guys. I may have to go it alone in some places, as I really want to try Randy's approach and try to find some "Sanctuaries" as he calls them.
