    Front Country Tool Box Items

    First year taking a UTV elk hunting. Mainly going to use it to keep from banging my old pickup around too much while getting to access points. Don't plan on going too far in or using it to drive in a camp. That being said, I was curious what you guys pack in the toolbox on a standard trip...

    Weatherby Vanguard

    I recently won a Weatherby Vanguard 6.5 Creedmoor at our local Ducks Unlimited banquet (just before they all got shut down). It worked out great because I had been considering purchasing a .308 or .270 for lighter big game like antelope and deer. It came with a Leupold VX-Freedom 3-9x40 scope...

    Looking for tips... DIY Stump Pedestal

    Anyone ever make their own stump pedestal for a mount? Looking for and tips from anyone who's done it themselves. My dad shot a nice mule deer this fall and I would like to make him a base for his mount. I live fairly close to an area with burned cedar trees so I was contemplating digging out...

    Poor Man's Sheep Hunt

    My wife and I missed our annual anniversary hiking trip in August this year due to summer house projects and work demands. We made up for it with a quick trip to Colorado in October. We passed several deer and elk hunters out for the opener of 2nd rifle on our way into the trail head. After...

    WY Historical Female Quota Info

    Is there somewhere on the WY G&F website where you can find the dates from each spring when the female quotas were met and the seasons were closed? I can find info about Spring 2019 closures, but I wasn't sure if they posted the historical dates from previous springs as well. Just curious if...

    Western South Dakota Coyote

    Heading to Deadwood this weekend for a bachelor party. While everyone else hits the slopes, I decided to give some coyote calling a try on Saturday. There is plenty of public access north of Belle Fourche that is likely good coyote calling territory, but was curious if any HuntTalkers have...

    Colorado Blue Grouse

    My wife and I are planning a camping/hiking trip around Summit County the last weekend in September (29 & 30). I’ve always seen plenty of grouse when bowhunting elk in early to mid-September, but I’ve had issues coming across them when I’m finally out with a shotgun. Anyone have some advice for...

    WYO Area 111 Type 7 Elk - Seminoe

    Wasn't lucky enough to draw the cow tag I have had in previous years for a late season rifle hunt. I like to purchase this reduced price tag in Wyoming each year as a late season backup if I need to put meat in the freezer (and to be honest, get out of town on a short adventure). Where I...

    Colorado Unit 82 - 4th Rifle

    This will be my last chance to get out an elk hunt in CO this season. I have a fourth rifle cow tag for Unit 82. I have hunted "close" to there before and understand its rough country and also home to Great Sand Dunes NP. I don't need anything specific as far as information, but want to know...

    Mule Deer Behavior

    It's that time of year when many hunters are in the woods pursuing game. I am headed out this weekend myself to try to find a mule deer buck. Wanted to see if there was any feedback from anyone who has been in the field the last week to ten days on what they are seeing for mule deer behavior...

    Wyoming Late Season Cow Elk

    I purchased a Unit 7 Type 7 cow elk tag for January 1 -31, 2018 in Wyoming. I have only ever bow hunted elk in September, so late season elk hunting is something new to me. I have deer hunted late season plenty of times so I am prepared for weather, road conditions, etc., effecting the hunt...

    Montana Grizzly Hunting Management Plan

    Does anyone have details on this plan that they have come up with if the bears are delisted in March? I read a brief outline on GoHunt, but I wondered if this is public information posted somewhere on their website or if someone may have previously posted this information on the forum...

    Southern Colorado Pack Out

    Anyone on here know of a quality and fair priced packer that can get some horses/mules/llamas 8-10 miles back in half a day to get elk meat out in Southern Colorado? We are planning to pack camp and gear in on our backs, but if we get an elk down, we'd like to get it out as quickly as possible...

    MT Black Bear this Spring

    I've done a few week long spring bear hunts in SW Montana 5 out of the last 6 years. I think I am going to try heading farther north to find some areas with higher bear densities. I'd like to hunt in 106 in either designated wilderness or just some national forest. That being said, do you...

    YNP Fishing?

    Planning on swinging through Yellowstone at the end of July and staying at least one day while in that part of the country. I was trying to find some good info on where to fish (fly or casting) while in the park? Not taking a boat or kayak. Planning on wading in or bank fishing. Thanks!

    SW Colorado Bear

    With limited vacation at work, I have to skip out on my annual spring bear hunt in Montana this May. The reason for this is a planned archery elk hunt in Colorado. Thinking about picking up a bear tag for that hunt. That way if we have trouble locating elk, I can still keep my spirits up...

    Bighorns black bear spot and stalk?

    I've done some spot and stalk in SW Montana with some success over the past few years. Wondering if anyone has any experience in the Bighorns in Wyoming for spot and stalk bears? I'd like to combine a fishing trip this spring with a bear hunt. Have some family in Wyoming that want to fish and...
