    Planning my first western hunt for mule deer in Montana

    I would possibly go out a couple days early, stay at your friends place, scout like crazy, and then camp and hunt out of the truck in what ever area seems most promising. I think I would go for the Elk/Deer combo license also. You have come that far and invested a lot already, whats a few more...

    Copper Anyone?

    ++1 on the Barnes TTSX. Im sure that other bullets of similar construction are as good, but why not go with the original. They hit with such devastation and retain almost 100% of their mass. The last deer and antelope i shot were marginal, and Im sure the Barnes Bullet helped to make my success.

    AZ coues success

    These posts are in error. Coues deer hunting is all work and no play. Why would anyone want to do it. All kidding aside, great job on those deer. As stated before, any Coues deer is a trophy. More people should try hunting this hunt at least once. When you do it becomes addictive. and that's...

    Great Buck, any idea of score?

    Reasonable Expectation ?

    If this is a once in a lifetime trip, I think that any of those would be safe. If this is a trip you will be repeating on a annual basis, I would shoot any of those bucks. Sets the bar for the future and some tender steaks. Antelope bucks are tough to judge, you will see that 70% of the bucks...

    Field Judging #2

    It is a cool looking buck. Love the flared prongs. I guess 74, but what do I know. I finally drew AZ unit 9 rifle after 22 years, im sure I will be seeing Eli around this summer and fall. Thanks for the tips on scoring.

    Field Judging

    I did the math and the test 4 times. I come up with between 88 and 92. Pronghorn are so tough, guess I better by Eli's DVD and bone up. No matter the score that is a " No questions asked " shooter that anybody and everybody should be proud of.

    I'm An Idiot!!

    I was out scouting for the upcoming archery elk season and if im going cross country checking waterholes, glassing, ect. I always carry a sidearm. I got back to my quad and unstraped the gun from my hip and placed it still in the holster, into the saddle bags. You can see where this is going...

    Last ever hunt

    Wow, never want to be in that position, but Archery elk, with the first hint of fall in the air, the aspens changing, and the first bugle of the year would be hard to beat. Wouldn't even care about the result just being there would be enough, if my sons were along....PRICELESS

    OK, So the holidays are over and the new year blooms with dreams of what is in store for the up coming fall hunting seasons. Here is my question for the masses. I have amassed 21 bonus points for the State of Arizona Pronghorn Antelope draw. If you were in my shoes what unit would you put in...

    Arizona Archery Elk 2014

    Tomorrow evening I, along with my 2 sons and some great friends will be at our elk camp for the start of the archery elk season on Friday. To say I am like a kid at Christmas is an understatement. The older I get the more it is about the chalenge of the hunt and the enjoyment of the company...
