I am at a crossroads in planning my hunts out west this year and I am not really sure which path I should take. Currently I am sitting on 6 Pts for Elk and Deer in Wy. I seem to be on the edge of being able to draw some quality tags, but each year that mark seems to move up. I also have 2 pts for antelope. In Utah I have 5 pts for elk and deer. So far this year I have decided to try for the following:
WY- elk- taking a long shot at a good unit. Not too heart broken if I don't draw this year.
antelope- group application with family. This is my "primary" want to go on hunt. We take a couple of weeks to fish, antelope hunt, and bird hunt over the dogs. Not very confident in our odds. Probably 50-50?
deer- No idea what I should do?
Utah- Deer and Elk, more points
New Mexico Elk and Oryx applications will go in.
Kentucky Elk app will go in
Alabama Gator app will go in
Maine Moose app will be submitted. No confidence in this one ever coming thru, but I have been trying for 15 yrs....
And finally a return trip to SD for pheasants is pretty likely.
What do you guys think? What would you do? What are you guys in similar situations planning?
