I like hearing the stories of other people using ~20 year old bows. I think bows made a huge leap in the very late 1990’s and then just incremental gains in materials and geometry tweaks since then. My 1st compound bow was a Bear Whitetail Hunter which I killed my 1st bow doe with. I now wish...

1 otc statewide archery buck or doe whitetail or mule deer. " they had restrictions years past on MD doe"
Lottery 1 rifle tag need to specify buck or doe and what species. Most mule deer buck tags take 5-8 years to draw. Whitetail bucks depending on unit 1-5 years.
Lottery 1...
I did, and I remember going to the breaks with a buck tag in my pocket every year and usually with 2 or 3 surplus pronghorn doe tags. I'm no biologist, but I wonder how much that sort of liberal harvest from 20 years ago brought us to where we are today.
Nowadays in some of the okayer districts...
So, I don't really know what I am doing and I only have two preference points for a buck antelope in WY.
I don't care about a trophy, I'd just like a unit with lots of lope and some stalking/shot opportunities.
Since I figure I don't have good odds of drawing a good unit with my two points...
We quick loaded up the animal, and then cooked a late lunch. At this point it’s 2 PM and we have a 45-min drive to get back to the nearest huntable antelope that we know of.
Once we arrive we stop and glass, repeat and repeat, hoping to find something on public. Nate eventually picks out a...
Dad and I grabbed some breakfast in celebration. By then, I was tired to the point of delirium after the rough night I'd experienced, and dying for a shower and a nap. We returned to the motel and crashed for much of the afternoon.
After waking, we took some time to explore a little bit and...
Elk changed everything for R7. Resident guys would draw a trophy elk tag and come out with 2 or 3 buddies, each with at least a buck tag but usually would also buy the 2 additional mule deer doe tags, and would stack up the bed of a truck with deer on their way back to wherever they came from...
We should form a HT support group for Western resident deer hunters. We’ll have our annual rendezvous in ANY SOUTHEASTERN STATE and kill 25 deer a day.
Hey Folks,
I drew a doe antelope tag in Northeast Utah after 6 years of applying. This is my first antelope hunt ever and I am concerned that my 7mm Rem. Mag will be a little too much gun for Doe antelope. Do you agree? What's your thoughts on using a 223 for hunting doe antelope, is that too...
Started the day by checking cards right at first light. Then checked out a new spot that was a let down and by around 11 I got settled into the stand. Ended up seeing a small buck, doe and fawn on stand and a doe and buck from
The truck. The buck was so focused on the doe and running her harder...
factors - plural - extraction activities, WGF handing out antelope doe licenses like antelope are walleye in Glendo Reservoir, the winter of '23 along the I80 corridor, and did I mention WGF handing out doe licenses as if its an extinction campaign?
(bashing hunting forums is tempting, but what...
My thoughts on WY:
90/10 Split.
Double the price of my resident tag.
Allow two either sex tags per year granted one is current NR price.
Allow anyone (R/NR) to enter the 10% draw at the current NR price.
Half the quotas on antelope doe fawn tags.
Eliminate any point system in place...
My son will be hunting antelope for the first time! He and my wife both drew either sex tags and I drew a doe tag closer to home. Gonna be a fun time chasing antelope this Fall!
All my tags this year are muzzleloader tags. CO elk tag, CO Pronghorn buck & doe tag (https://www.hunttalk.com/threads/co-2023-muzzleloader-pronghorn-antelope-hunt.321262/), NM Mule Deer tag.
