30-06 130 TTSX Enough for Cow Elk?
I have one load made for my 30-06 and use 168 TTSX. I just keep it simple. NEVER failed to bring down 4 bulls, two deer and an antelope. Fun stuff. -
Idaho Nonresident Draw!
I’ve been unsuccessful snagging an OTC tag 3 years in a row so I’m happy about this even though the odds will be low (below 10%). However, I’ve also been stupid lucky 3x drawing rifle elk tags (2 early rifle and 1 mid rifle). No doubt those single digit odds will be even lower. Not sure I... -

Utah Draw Results 2025
The Utah calendar says Thursday next week. I thought last year we got emails first. Fingers crossed. I gave up on a mid/lower tier archery elk after helping others the last two years (and where I got one in 2012). Switched to a 50/50 odds unit with my points. Really want to draw and get out of...- YZF-88

Utah People, thoughts on this?
When it comes to corruption for anything adjacent to wildlife resources, I don’t thing any state is in the same league as Utah (wealth tags, SFW, corrupt outfitter free passes, etc). No way I’d trust the state to “manage” public resources.- YZF-88

Poaching, Partnerships, and Profits
MF’s tearjerker speech to the Utah board…and getting a pass pretty much enables this type of behavior. Observation: The supplements and workout programs influencers like MF must be legit. It has to the key to unlocking legal amnesty and fiscal superpowers. Also, they no doubt level up fitness...- YZF-88

Be honest about your Wyoming elk app!
15 points regular. Couldn’t justify letting them hold onto the fee for a “special”. Seriously doubt I’ll draw.- YZF-88

Idaho 2024- start %itching now
The lowest I have is 17032. This sucks. I miss hunting up there. I had a tag for 6 straight years now I'm going on three in a row with nothing. Since my new job is remote. Maybe I'll move up there. Sold out in less than 17 minutes.- YZF-88

Barnes TTSX 180 grain 300 win mag for elk?
I load my 30-06 with 165gr TTSX bullets. Definitely a fan. 4/4 on elk and 1/1 on deer with the setup. Really like those bullets. -
KHunter ID Elk bowhunt 2023
Was a pleasure to help! Sure made the work week go by fast. Felt like I was right there the whole time…but eating better and much more comfortable in my office chair. Sometimes I was even roughing it in a recliner suggesting Khunter climb up into those areas. Was more than happy he waited...
