    Going to try this again, but much earlier in the process. A Wyoming NR pronghorn and mule deer combo hunt.

    Thanks I will definitely have to check that out. Thanks for the reminder on that. I have thought of that as well to make it more worth the drive out there for the amount of meat I can potentially bring home vs the fuel cost to get out there among other costs. A non resident doe antelope tag is...

    I understand the pitfalls of having two tags for different species, especially those that usually different environments. It will depend upon how much time off I can muster to be able to go 21+ hours west. If I have a full 10 days I believe I can find a decent pronghorn buck in the first couple...

    Yeah I would probably have to actually go into November for that. October is pre rut. What you mentioned is what I have been thinking of doing actually. I know that I can find a decent pronghorn buck in a day or two as long as I don't have any issues travelling around the unit and getting...

    Sounds like a good plan, I don't need the famed high country mule deer experience to be satisfied on my first hunt in Wyoming. So any low or open country bucks that are so 130 or better are on my list.

    The later dates have me worried about snow, but the earlier season has more chance for rain which many say could be even worse with how muddy the country roads would be for accessing pieces of public.

    Thanks for the advice on where to look for those pronghorn and possibly low country muleys. I was thinking the same thing about how much more of a challenge finding a 130 in or bigger 3x3 or 4x4 mule deer buck is versus a 70 in representative pronghorn buck, and focus more on that.

    Thanks everyone so far for your suggestions and thoughts. I’ll definitely take all that advice and put it in my application and hunt plans.

    Good afternoon everyone. I am going to try this again, but much earlier in the process. I appreciate all the advice last year right before the WY deer and pronghorn draw. With my brother, cousins and Uncle heading to Idaho for mule deer in two different units and hunt dates, I was not able to...

    Quality "Available" bullets to reload for my Savage M110 in .270 Win?

    Thank you 🙏 all for your suggestions. I definitely need to load up some more rounds if I’m going to make this Wyoming mule deer and pronghorn hunt happen in 2023. Needs lots of practice especially at longer distances than just sighting in at 100 yards.

    My current pack for a mobile tree 🌳 saddle gear and deer 🦌 or bear 🐻 meat 🥩 hauler. What is everyone else using for a combo pack and how is it workin?

    That’s pretty cool 😎 thanks 🙏 for sharing this picture. I see the Pop Up 28 and 38 for sale on Camofire and BlackOvis quite often. That’s one of my top choices for next summer. I did get a Eberlestock F7 Kite 🪁 for 50% off and have also thought of getting the F1 Mainframe Tall to match as well...

    My current pack for a mobile tree 🌳 saddle gear and deer 🦌 or bear 🐻 meat 🥩 hauler. What is everyone else using for a combo pack and how is it workin?

    Since I currently can’t afford a high quality pack for carrying in my tree saddle mobile setup with Tethrd Predator XL platform and Hawk Helium 20 in sticks and hopefully haul out deer 🦌 or possibly black bear 🐻 meat 🥩 from the deep and steep places of West Virginia and PA, I am going to try...

    KHunter NM Pronghorn 2022

    I definitely respect you for bring out all of the tricks for spot and stalking, even if sitting water might be tempting at times even though most hate the Sweat Box. I need to get my bow skills up to par and budget for such a fun yet difficult hunt. Especially since I want to hunt pronghorn in...

    KHunter NM Pronghorn 2022

    Congratulations on drawing a difficult tag in the land of the giants in New Mexico. Looks like you have seen quite a few pronghorn out there including some mid 70s, a wide 80+ and a wonky one. If it isn't the actual rut I have heard that buck decoys don't work so well. Good luck out there, I am...
