    Whoa Wyoming, Really?

    When even 7-8 years ago your website was more top notch than basically any other wildlife department in THE United States of America, you update it again? Really? Dang... and before Colorado can even figure out how to have a website that's only navigable by using google to find each page...

    How many of you conceal?

    Watching that other thread and I'm curious. My CCW is expired by a couple years now, looking to re up it here soon. Probably won't carry that much, but I used to carry a lot. Thread might get locked at some point. But it doesn't have to.

    Grassfed Flat for Smoked Brisket

    Don't give me your opinion on using a grassfed flat for brisket. It will be ignored. neighbors have a flat they offered to hand off to me and we'll get together at our house and eat it this weekend. i'm just gonna use whatever i have laying around, sauces, butters, seasoning, won't be going to...

    Why Oak is always so busy.

    Not great news but a good shout out for RMBS and others to the CPW Commission by Big Game Manager Andy Holland. "These two species demonstrate the most effort per license in thought and conversation. They're not taken lightly,"...

    The Young Warrior - A Brief 4th Rifle Deer Hunt

    Is this a hunt worthy of a write up? Meh, that's up to you, if you choose to read on. I find that every hunt develops it's own personality and traits emerge that can weave a story together. This is no glory hunt, it is a 0-1 point Mule Deer hunt and from closing the front door behind me to...

    Rangefinder Recommendations

    Looking to stick in the $300 range. We'll see. The end of this season is forcing a lot of equipment upgrades and replacements. Just seems to be about that time for me. Going on 7 seasons with a lot of stuff that are either wearing out, stopped working, or i've lost patience with their...

    Schnee's Beartooth Owners

    I'm lazy, didn't do any searching. I'm badly in need of a new pair of boots and I'm likely just gonna get some Beartooths. Packing out a little buck last night, somehow, someway, I punctured my boot with a stout piece of wood that passed through the sole at an angle up and out the side, barely...

    Morning or Evening?

    What a phenomenally boring few days to be at work. I've pondered this question plenty of times and I feel solid in my answer, at least with my personal data thus far as a hunter. Let's say you have one day that you can go hunt, but you only are able to do a half day for whatever reason. Which...

    Went to Wisconsin

    I promised a write-up, so a write up you all will get. Aptly named as the culminating chapter to my previous thread titled Going to Wisconsin. This hunt began with a family reunion on my wife's side of the family that occurred in southern Wisconsin, summer of 2022. My wife's mom grew up on a...

    My General Tag

    So begins the story of my quest to fill a Wyoming General Elk Tag. I want this to be more a story documenting my emotions during a hunt rather than a story documenting a hunt. But, it will undoubtedly be both. It is inherently both. I find for myself that my hunting is often more a struggle...

    Going to Wisconsin

    Okay cheeseheads, I could use some wisconsin insight. I'm going to Wisconsin this fall for deer. My issue is it's basically entirely up to me when I go and I'm not entirely certain how to plan it out. I have in laws land to hunt on. Should I go out for archery rut? Should I go out for gun...

    What's yer total?

    Who keeps a solid track of how many and what type of animals they have shot? I'm sure lots of people have a decent number in their head. But who actually has a tally of the actual true number? I've been doing that since I started hunting. I have a spreadsheet I keep my application planning in...

    WY General Elk - Who's In?

    Good grief, just dropped my ~800 bones for a General Elk app + Archery Permit. Weird, I'm still holding an open season elk license too. Finally throwing in for it and for some reason never really imagined doing that. Time to learn how to use my bow too.

    Holy $#!#, I'm Tired.

    I'm kinda gonna try a new style here. This will be a hunt recap of sorts, but it's been a wild year. And so, really, i'm gonna kinda call this a year recap, as my hunts were not very substantive from a story or length of time standpoint. There hasn't been much availability for me to be away...

    wyo conditions

    hey you locals. how are the conditions up there around rawlins? see i80 is closed. trying to figure out how screwed i am due this awesome snow that probably pushed all the hordes of elk into that exact area i was hoping to find them this weekend, but am now wondering if i'll need a snowmobile...

    Commercial Use Permits - Time for States to Step Up?

    As @Big Fin suggested, let's start a new thread on this topic. I finally have a few moments since i first posted this stuff in the freakster thread late this morning. The afternoon blew up on me at work then i come home to an evening of dad duty. So... I'm well aware Randy get's his permits...

    Why does it have to be this way?

    let's start a lively debate. though i feel confident i'm in the minority already. why, just why, does thanksgiving food have to be what it is? why is everyone set on it? for what is incontrovertibly the biggest most important get together meal of the entire year in the huge and powerful...

    The Trenches

    get ready @wllm the baby came early two weeks ago. perfectly healthy and happy. these first two weeks have been just as hellish as people make it seem. except for the fact that nobody really ever levels with you and let's you know how brutal it really is.... so, actually, it's been worse than...
