Antelope Adventure: 4 Tags, 4 Bucks
When I started filling out applications this year my expectations were low, a license in Montana and one in Wyoming. Montana continued to disappoint me, but Wyoming stepped up and granted me two. Then Idaho Fish & Game chose redemption after the license sales fiasco in December by choosing my... -

Picked up my 4th Antelope buck tag this year
South Dakota decided I had was deserving of a tag and called me yesterday to offer me a returned license. Number have been climbing nicely the past few years and then this drought stuff, so I'm thinking it might be the best time for convergence of the two. I'll be in the SW corner, unit 27... -
ID .50cal Hawken Antelope Hunt
Just like the old-timers... I Took my Hawken .50 caliber to Idaho looking for an experience from the 1850s. Several stalks later I found out why Lewis and Clark took 20 times as many deer as pronghorn. Getting close is not easy on the open sage sea. Day one produced many stalks but I wasn't... -

This Turkey Hunt Isn't About the Turkeys...
...it's about the people of Eastern Montana, like Jesse. The leads I had for turkeys dried up pretty quick which meant covering a lot of ground in a little amount of time looking for some toms. In a random stop, at a small store in an even smaller prairie town, we met a couple of good ole...- 406LIFE

ID Moose Worth It?
I've applied for moose in ID for several years. This year the price increase $700 (now $2756) and the dropping odds (~30 % to 8%) has me reconsidering it all. DIY AK and NL isn't much more, but is logistically a bit more of a pain. I may be out on ID Moose, always wanted to shoot an antelope...- 406LIFE

Success with leftover CO Antelope tag?
Just curious what the experience has been for those of you who picked up an OTC tag after the draw? Personally, I'm debating on waiting another year for the area I'd like or just burning points and going this fall. -

WY Antelope Draw 2020 Review
I finished my WY antelope research from 2020. Here are some thoughts I've found: 1. If you can stomach a $600 antelope tag and you really want to go antelope hunting, the special draw really is worth it. 2. Guys with 2-7 points really came off the bench and put their points into the game...
