    Looking for a spotting scope

    I have the Vortex Razor HD 22-48x65 and I am pretty happy with it and it fits in my day pack fairly well with a tri pod, no problem. If I had to do it again, I think I'd probably go with Maven instead of Vortex

    wyoming unit 68 n.w. of dubois

    Yeah no problem, Mike is a good guy and has no problem putting 20 miles on, in a day and he's a killer. Good to hear things worked out for you

    NM Mule Deer Unit 42

    You would be correct on the location. I've talked to two game wardens down there and a few locals but due to lack of access nobody seems to know if there are critters in there, what kind of animals there are or the quality of them. We are looking at either packing in on foot or packing in on...

    wyoming unit 68 n.w. of dubois

    Also I know another UP'er that knows the area fairly well down there that hunts pretty hard, you could also call him seems how you guys speak the same language. Call the Ft Washakie BIA office and ask for Mike Lapointe and he might be able to help as well

    Gutless Method in Grizz Country

    Leaving the hide on is going to be %100 weather dependent and if you have a cool dark place you can hang it over night. I rarely remove the hide from my quarters because it is a barrier from dirt and I've never had meat spoil due to this, but that's also dependent on if you can find a place to...

    wyoming unit 68 n.w. of dubois

    The lava Mountain fire in 2016 burned about 14,600 acres on forest in the area you are talking about and yes the bears in that area were a little surly while I was on that fire, remember a story of a grizzly sow knocking over a hiker then bouncing on him a few times before trotting off. I'd...

    NM Mule Deer Unit 42

    So a buddy of mine and I drew the late October season mule deer tag for unit 42, considering a bunch of public land just opened up last fall. Problem we are having so far is that so few if any people have been back in there for next to forever that it's been tough getting any information. I...

    New Mexico Draw Deadline Approaching (Mar. 21st)

    I drew Unit 42 mule deer for late October, I was pretty excited at first to draw it with a good buddy. The plan is to hunt the wilderness that just opened up last fall but it has been next to impossible to find information on the public land due to nobody having access forever, I guess it will...

    I really messed up!!!....or did I????

    I know there are a lot of good bulls in Unit 7, never hunted it personally but have had a lot of friends take good bulls out of there but they also had horses and knew people for access to get to public land. I know access can be an issue, it can be pretty rough rocky terrain. A good buddy of...

    NM Unit 42

    I was hoping someone could give me some information on the NM mule deer Unit 42. I know up till this year it has been primarily private land hunting, but figured with the Sabinoso wilderness opening up maybe that might add some first time opportunities for someone that doesn't have deep...

    Interesting Find

    5 years ago my wife shot a decent 6 point bull and when quartering him out I found a baseball size chunk of scar tissue wrapped around a mechanical broadhead and 3" of the shaft high up on the shoulder/neck from a previous season plus he had been shot in the ass and one quarter was bad. probably...

    First Texas Whitetail

    And no he wasn't gut shot, that's just a blood spot from the doe being on top of him in the truck, figured I'd clarify seems how that seems to be the first thing people think

    First Texas Whitetail

    Been going on pig/deer/turkey hunts in Texas for the last 3 years and never had the opportunity to hunt a buck till this year. On the last morning of our I hunt I decided to be a little more persistent and stayed out well into the heat of the day. Went to get out of my blind as a young doe...

    Hunting a Wildfire Burn Area

    I would just call the local land management agency and ask to speak to someone that may be able to answer your questions, land agencies generally do post fire monitoring, especially on large fires. Call the front desk and ask if there is a local biologist, fire ecologist or better yet someone...

    Hunting a Wildfire Burn Area

    This question is very subjective, did the fire occur under extremely dry conditions and burn to hot or was it under a management or controlled burn under milder conditions? If it burned under hot to very hot conditions it may take a couple of years for grasses, forbes and aspen to regenerate...

    CO Mule Deer Units 11/211 3rd rifle info

    The family and I drove from Meeker on up to Maybell and saw some pretty awesome bucks right along the highway chasing does mid day. Was just wondering if anyone had good information on these areas. Is it even worth putting in for a tag or will I be old before I draw one? How tough is it to...

    How's mule deer hunting in Wypming

    SW Wyoming is looking pretty bleak this fall, there has still been some decent deer taken. I spent 3 days/4 nights camped out and saw a few smaller bucks and only a hand full of does and fawns compared to a normal year I'd see over a hundred deer in that time. G&F has thrown out there that...

    Might hang up the bow

    when you've figured out how to pattern elk, let me know. Elk have no problem travelling miles for water every day and besides the rut really have no rhyme or reason for a lot of what they do unless water, feed and cover is at a premium or it is peak rut
