    Youth elk success

    After a whirlwind Wyoming antelope hunt with my youngest son Nash, we returned home just in time to sleep in our beds for a night before heading out on his older brother Hunter’s youth cow elk hunt. It was a dream come true for me as my Dad joined my sons for a hunt for the first time ever. We...

    Nash’s First Buck

    My son Nash earned straight A’s all year last year and as a reward we applied for antelope in WY. He just turned 12 last month so he didn’t have any pts and I only had a couple. We picked a unit with ok draw odds but not a lot of public. The bucks were skittish for sure. After trying...

    Elkhorns Grizzly

    After the fatality in Ovando and spending the last couple weeks here in Clancy, I got to wondering, is it time to start carrying bear spray in the elkhorns? I’m not sure if the bear aware signs have always been at the trailheads and I didn’t notice or if they are new but they are at almost...

    Midwest Public Land

    There are a number of Midwest folks who hang around these forums. I am hoping someone can give me an idea of what public land opportunities might exist in the Omaha area. I am wondering if between the adjacent states and Nebraska is there enough public ground to be do-able for a DIY resident...

    One gun to do it all .25 sst (Sherman short tactical)

    After some ups and downs with rifle issues last year I decided to do a full build this off-season. I hadn’t decided what cartridge to build for but wanted one gun to do it all. I have three growing children, a wife who is an occasional hunter and a typical season for us includes everything from...

    WTB - Mule Deer Cape

    Does anyone have a cape from an approximately 3 year old mule deer buck? Between ticks and bullets my son’s Kaibab cape is in rough shape. It’s his first deer and he was really looking forward to a shoulder mount.

    Diamond Creek Res Tag Sales

    Anybody know how quickly the resident A tags sold out for Diamond Creek this year? Curious what impact the restriction on hunter's applying for controlled hunts may have had.

    Late Kaibab - 11 years old

    I can’t believe it but it looks like my 11 year old will be hunting either 12A West or 12B West during the late season. How about a big old muley buck with a swollen neck for a first big game animal?!

    Great American Outdoors Act

    I reached out to my local reps and expressed my support for this legislation. I was more than disapppinted to receive the following response from my house rep. As @Big Fin has said, I am member of the party of hunting and fishing. I am also a registered republican, but because their platform...

    Hey guys, as you might have guessed I am a flatlander from AZ heading north to archery hunt elk in MT this year. I received great advice from a mentor years ago about bringing more than you take-away, so in that spirit I posted an overview on big game hunting in AZ in that section available...

    Montana Elk Results Question

    I am new to MT's draw results system . . . just what the heck does this mean? And does this get asked every year? Because I searched for an answer before I posted this. I think I am going to MT . . . but maybe not.
