    Idaho M/S/G ‘24

    Over halfway through the application period. Who is in or plans to be? I applied today for my yearly Sheep tag. This is my first time paying as a nonresident, with my hope that with me paying more, I’ll draw it within the next 3 years. 😂 Good luck to those going after their OIL in Idaho. My...

    Deer, Elk, Antelope Same Unit….

    I will be a WY resident this year and have been researching a ton of options for all 3 species. My thought for a strategy is to apply for all 3 in the same area. I’d apply and hope for one of the 3 tags to hunt, but wondered if anyone has drawn all 3 in the same year? I would apply over 3 years...

    KUIU free shipping code

    I have a free shipping code for KUIU. First person to ask for it in this thread. I will send you a PM with it. I got a certificate at a RMEF banquet. It wouldn’t let me combine 3 codes, so the free shipping is still available.

    2017 WY Pronghorn Trip

    The third year of applying for a tag in WY, I was on the successful side of the applicants. Point creep had decimated odds the previous two years on what I thought would be easy to draw Pronghorn tags. The fact that I promised my wife we would go hunting in WY for the past two seasons, she was...

    2017 MT Whitetail

    2017 was an incredible year of hunting for me, I was able to draw a couple tags in MT & WY, hunting with family and friends on each trip. I was really excited for my deer hunt in Montana, because I would get to hunt with my brother, ID_deerslayer. He moved to MT a few years ago and has been...

    Idaho Deer Tags

    For any of you Idaho residents, they reduced the price on a non-resident elk tag down to $300 this month. How many guys on this site are going to take advantage of this? Second, they didn't reduce the price on deer tags yet. I think they will, either in Sept. or Oct. They haven't even sold...

    Upgrading a Model 70 EW

    I just picked one up in .300 wsm for a really good deal. I fell in love with the HS Precision Sporter stock when I held one. Just wanting to see if anyone knows where the best place to buy them online is? I also plan on replacing the trigger with a Timney. Anything else I should look into? Plan...

    Idaho Elk CH

    I wanted to see if anyone on Hunttalk has drawn a bull tag before in unit 36a-1? I've had a cow tag for the area, but it was an leftover tag back in 2008. Those dates were in Nov. Having that tag proved why it was a leftover back then, elk numbers were way down. Seeing how I drew the bull tag...

    AK DIY Fishing

    I want to go to AK and get in a day or two of fishing. I am thinking of flying into Ketchikan or Sitka next Monday and leaving on Wednesday to come back. I have the following questions for those that live in AK or have fished either of these places. 1.) Is it better to bring a fly rod and fish...

    Daughters First Buck

    My daughter Madison got her first buck last weekend. She and another friends son drew a good deer tag. Madison and 5 of us adults also had extra doe tags in hand. The first day Madison missed a nice 4pt buck, but decided too fill her doe tag about 4 hours later. Unfortunately the deer decided...

    2015 Idaho Buck

    Finally getting a success story on HT! I still need to do a better job of taking pics of the phases of how my hunts unfold. Onto the story: I decided 3 years ago to make a commitment to not shoot the first legal deer I had a shot at. This opened up a lot of experience and I learned a bunch...

    Idaho Big Game Proposals

    https://fishandgame.idaho.gov/content/public-involvement The proposals are out for public comment. Of the 3 regions I hunt, I like the proposals. It will be interesting to see how many proposals come to the printer. I hope to see the ebb and flow of the regulations, as goes the population...

    Practice Shooting

    What does everyone do for practice for the upcoming season? I like shooting the .22 for trigger control and focus, then getting out and shooting my rifle usually out to 300 yards or so, depending on location. I like having my family practicing offhand shots at 100yds on a milk jug filled with...

    "Blood In The Tracks- A Mule Deer Manifesto"

    Great book on mule deer! Enjoyed reading this book and picked up on a couple things I need to practice in the field. Gonna pack it while on mule deer hunts.

    Vortex Viper HD 10x42 Binos

    Less than a year old. Have kept them in a badlands case since hunting season. Great glass, seeing how I upgraded from the Diamondback series. They are in really good condition. I am only selling because I want to move up to some 12x50's and possibly jump into the Razors. Paid $630 brand new last...

    Idaho Resident Deer/Elk

    I'm wondering if other Idaho residents notice when they draw a controlled hunt for deer or elk. I have noticed that if I put in for a controlled hunt and get drawn, it is because I am on an application with 1-3 other people. However, I have not drawn a tag if I put in solo. How many other...

    Coyote Hunting = Sheds

    Well, I actually went out coyote hunting and happened to stumble into these sheds. The 3 pt is the freshest I have ever found. I am guessing it was dropped sometime between Wed-Sat. The other two were in an area I haven't found sheds before.

    How do you pick what size of a mule deer to shoot?

    I am not a trophy hunter by any means. In fact I have not even shot a mature deer yet. I have some questions for those who research new areas or pick areas to hunt that are buck hunts only. If the area doesn't produce big deer often, older than 4-5 years old, how do you go about picking the...
