    Taking any advice on Arizona 16a

    This is going to make a great live hunt report thread when the time comes. Just keep the unit info off it!

    Colorado Opportunity Elk

    It only looks like good "odds" in that bracket since there are so many additional low point applicants, so someone drawing there might be almost inevitable, but for any one of them very improbable. in reality, odds are very very poor, and comparatively poor when pitted on an individual basis...

    Colorado Opportunity Elk

    Cutting tags in half, each half drawn differently. 1st half, pref point draw (like now). 2nd half, weighted random (using your pref points for more chances in the hat, but everyone has at least some chance). changes regarding how you gain preference points and whether you have to apply for a...

    Colorado Opportunity Elk

    I walked and left points. I'm stupid and optimistic but not enough of one or the other or both in that state.

    Colorado Opportunity Elk

    I rather wish I only had 3 points vs the points I do. At least then I'd just use them, accumulate a few more and then use them again. I can't put in for CO this year, but hunts that are possible now or within only a few more years are likely to slip multiple points of creep ahead due both the...

    Arizona Elk & pronghorn

    My fate is sealed. I drew my second choice, which, after I had already submitted, grew to become my preferred choice. I am soaking this in. By AZ standards, not the pinnacle tag, but it's a great tag nonetheless - better than any I have ever had - and I had little reason to expect to draw. I'll...

    Arizona Elk & pronghorn

    I suddenly have a Tag # also. Portal updating is in process. Unit #'s soon!

    Round Nosed Bullets, in an era of high BC addiction, anybody else use them

    Why even have a Whelen if you are not going to shoot the 250 RN? Not sure if the bullets are easy to find these days, at least I secured a small stash for personal use. Waiting for the right elk or moose hunt to deploy en masse during preparations.

    Arizona Elk & pronghorn

    It's a trap. STAND DOWN IF YOU WANT TO LIVE! Tell her you were just kidding and that you think it would make much more sense to find a nice beach hotel getaway with a spa that she would also enjoy. No way in hell I am applying for NM this year, with 3 weeks in AZ planned, hard as that is.

    Arizona Elk & pronghorn

    If the hunt is even equally exciting, my heart is in trouble.

    New impulse buy

    Should get the job done on most anything with antlers worth shooting with it.

    Anyone Use a Savage 99?

    Someone out there has my grandfather's that was stolen and sold by my dad's cousin.... I'll never get to hunt or shoot that heirloom. 😤

    10 Point Cow Hunt

    I knew you would come back to your senses! Great plan! Schedule it right and you can possibly do a deer hunt AND a 2nd/3rd choice or leftover cow elk hunt on the same trip and even unit.

    Wyoming pronghorn unit options

    With only 2 points, I'd eye a multi-state strategy, looking for youth, leftover, doe tags, whatever. Getting tough to pull decent tags these days DIY, so may want to broaden your options to best ensure you get tags somewhere if your heart is set on hunting this year. Having multiple backup plans...

    What Sport did you play growing up?

    XC and track, or as my daughters say, "running in circles." After that I raced hare scrambles and enduros.

    What Would It Take for Hunters to Rebel Against the North American Wildlife Conservation Model?

    Rebellion? No, but I have a hard time understanding why any nonresident starts hunting out west under present and worsening circumstances. I am going to wind down and quite possibly out of it over the next 20 years whether I want to or not, and nobody in my current or future family lineage will...

    Arizona 2nd choice

    I'm this bad. I've drawn a few doe antelope in WY but no other random tags in WY, MT, NM, UT, AZ, ID, ME, NH, VT, PA or any raffles. A couple of times I have even been the odd man out at my pref point level in Colorado. If not for the Colorado leftover list and 2nd/3rd choice tags, I'd have...

    10 Point Cow Hunt

    Noooooo! PM me your timing and constraints if you care to, maybe I give you a better plan which should not be hard! I'm sure you will get lots of suggestions from others too.
