    Drthornton Re-Introducing myself

    Hi guys, I've been extremely sporadic for about the past 4 years. A new, very demanding, career and pre-teen kids has kept me from viewing and posting very much...and kept me from hunting very much for that matter. Anyway, this hunting draw season I have become reinvigorated to apply myself...

    Lucky SOB

    Got a call from a 435 number this afternoon. Didn't know the area code but the family and I were coming back from a long weekend at the lake so I decided to answer. A sweet young lady said "Hi this is Kathy from the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources. We show you applied for a Central...

    NM Pecos Rocky Mountain Bighorn Tag!!!

    I friend of mine got extremely lucky in the NM draw and pulled a Rocky Mountain Bighorn tag for the Pecos Mountains 1st season. He is beside himself with excitement to say the least. He is a NM resident, Hobbs police officer and a heck of a nice guy. He helped me with intel on a Pronghorn...

    CO Leftover Draw ?

    I don't know much about the CO Leftover Draw and can't find much detail. I am helping my cousin out with an Elk tag and wanted to get a little more info. Question: Do points play any role in the leftover draw or is it simply everyone put their names in a hat and they pull names until tags are...

    WY Random Tag Odds

    Doing some research for 2012 hunts. I thought I had the WY draw pretty much clocked but while looking things over I am confused on the Random tag drawing. Originally I thought that if you applied for a hunt (any choice) you were in the random draw for that hunt should you not draw in the PP...

    I am always looking for good deals on gear. Found several Big Agnes Bags half off including Pomer Hoit Regular right zips. It's a really good deal on an 800 down bag for $235 if you like BA's integrated pad concept. http://bigagnes.com/Products/Detail/Bag/pomerhoitsl0Sample

    Wyoming Elk 2011

    Got back this weekend from my first DIY Elk hunt. WVHunter and a friend of ours(Mike) met me in Wyoming from West Virginia and Virginia respectively. We were all pretty much green Elk hunters but had put in the time over the past year to do everything we could to prepare. The best thing about...

    Double Bull Dark Horse?

    My local Cabela's has a Double Bull Dark Horse ground blind in the Bargain Cave for $177 and I have an additional $20 off coupon. I set it up yesterday and it works fine...only has some ground in mud on it. I know some guys on here have these blinds. What are your thoughts and is this a good...

    Robin Hood

    Yesterday evening I was doing my final practicing before I leave for my New Mexico Pronghorn Hunt. My final shot at the 50 yards(current regimen is to shoot 3 arrows at 30, 40, 50 and 60) sounded really strange. I actually thought I skimmed the top of the target and lost the arrow to the...

    Books on CD?

    Facing over 40 hours in the truck driving to/from hunts by myself in the next 6 weeks my buddy recommended I get some books on CD. He has access to a good sized audio library and just needs to know what I would like. I am not a big reader, other than Hunting Magazines and the like, so any...

    New Mexico Archery Antelope ANT-2-180

    I know it's a long shot but any other Hunt-Talker draw a Unit 31 Archery Lope Tag? PM me if you did and are looking for some company. I am going solo. I have, what I think is, a pretty good plan and some good intel on the unit.

    Insoles?

    I am looking to purchase some good quality insoles and wonder what everyone uses and their opinions on them. I potentially need 2 pair for 2 different pairs of boots. 1. Kenetrek Harscramble Light which seem to fit good but I have heel slip on my right boot which I can't seem to solve. 2. Lowa...

    Pronghorn Horns vs Drought

    I drew a SE New Mexico archery Pronghorn tag this year (watched the Season 3 opener last night, actually watched it 3 times, which got me particularly fired up). Today I received an email from Outdoor Life with a link to the 2011 Elk Forecast...

    Boone and Crockett Books/Data

    Was wondering if anyone has the latest B&C Book...I am wondering if it has a companion CD with the data in different formats(excel or CSV). I recently got the latest P&Y book and it came with a CD. I have enjoyed sorting through the data and would like to do the same with the B&C records. I...
