Cougar Mistaken For a Deer
There's always a lion or two being discussed in some area of IL on a yearly basis. Probably 10 years ago there was one in our area. Some people laid eyes on it, others had trail cam pics. I was in my deer stand during gun season and my buddy kept trying to call me. I finally answered in a...- hunt1up

Deer - lets see em
I haven't been on Hunttalk in some time but I figured a good way to jump back in is to brag about my kids. My 9 and 11 year old both got a buck this past weekend in our youth season. My daughters buck is an absolute stud and was very unexpected. I've killed almost 100 whitetails and I've only... -
Which time savings do you prefer?
When they change the time in the prime of the rut I tend to cuss waking up at 4:00 when it could be 5:00. And I like being able to squeeze in evening hunts, until early November when they've historically ruined that for me. So I'm all in for a change.- hunt1up

Pickup of the Future?
I'm out of the market until the next time around. I just bought another gas Silverado so my EV days are somewhere in the future, probably 5 years or so.- hunt1up

Pickup of the Future?
I just happened upon this thread since I haven't been on Hunttalk lately. I noticed the conversation on Rivian. The Rivian plant is about 20 minutes from my house. They bought the old Mitsubishi plant in Bloomington a few years ago. They probably just about had it given to them since it was...- hunt1up

Serious Question: post hunt/vacation letdown and depression
I notice by about day 7 of a 12 day trip, I've almost adjusted to a new routine that feels normal. Getting up at 5:00am in a tent, pooping outside, hiking all over. It certainly takes a few days to feel normal in civilization again. Several things help me. While mountain hunting is my...- hunt1up

Wyoming Elk Unit 33 - cow tag help!
I don't think pressure was so much a problem. Just access. -
Wyoming Elk Unit 33 - cow tag help!
Wow, I forgot about this thread! I haven't spent as much time on Hunttalk in recent years. In our situation we ended up eating the tags and went antelope hunting instead. It wasn't an ideal decision but all we could manage that year. Two friends drew 33-6 the following year. They went... -
How do you celebrate a successful hunt?
Generally if we kill an animal we drink beer back at camp. Same thing happens if we don't kill anything.- hunt1up

2021 Wyoming NR Elk Draw Results
I pulled a LE Special bull tag in a unit I've hunted once before. I had 3 points and went in knowing I had about a 6% chance in the random. Looks like the preference point threshold was around 9 points so to say I'm quite surprised is an understatement. I didn't think I'd get back in this... -
Moose - Lets see em!
Yeah he was only 52” wide but it was quite obvious he had at least 3 brows on one side. It definitely exceeded expectations.- hunt1up

Mask up on federal lands
I live in small town farm country and I don't see how the vaccine is going to be effective when two local VA homes had 18% and 28% of their workers op for the vaccine. We are signing up employees at work and we're paying people to go get the vaccine on work time, and also offering gift cards to...- hunt1up

Moose - Lets see em!
DIY from AK fall of 2019. He was the only moose we saw on the whole trip although we heard many others. The terrain was THICK and packing that thing SUCKED! Elk quarters will forever seem lighter after that.- hunt1up

A buddy and I had a card hit for early archery in either 4A or 8. Guess we'll see where we end up. Feel free to PM GPS coordinates! :cool:- hunt1up

Headed for WY - SNOW!
Maybe get some Peerless Z-Chains or similar? They're much lighter weight and you could take the in your luggage. I have a set that I take with me out west though I've never had to use them. You might need to know the truck tire size though. You might be able to figure that out if you know...
