Buck & Bull combo ?
- Thread starter BUL_KRZY
- Start date
I did hear of some guys filling their deer tags, but not in the "Northern" unit. They shot them in the NE unit. I guess I should not blame the "hunt" for the mistake made by these guys, but anytime you create these special hunts, it opens a can of worms. 2 less bucks for the legal guys to have a shot at.

Hell I havent got either. Havent seen an elk since mid september and only one buck that is worth shooting and he is in a spot that is just about impossible to get to with out blowing him out.
I am looking for a decent deer, damn I wish the hunting gods would start shinning on me instead of pissin on me.

My neighbor just returned home with a spike bull and a 2 pt buck .This is the first elk and deer he has ever harvested.All I seen was a sea of orange and a few small bucks.

Both of my brothers shot their bucks, 1 - 4 point and 1 - 5 point. Dad is still trying to find the right one to fill his tag, they have seen plenty of bucks, but have only seen one bull! It was a 5x5, it crossed the road in front of them as they were heading to there afternoon spot. They had no time to react, it was gone before they knew it, they trailed it for awhile, it never slowed down!! It's proably some where in Wyoming now!!!
I should have got a non-resy tag and joined them!!

My dad has this tag and I am a little concerned with what I am seeing.Let me just say there is alot of pressure on the North slope ,Soapstone area and East Canyon and for the most part alot of small bucks hitting the dirt.How is this going to impact the deer and elk for the next few years.I have seen more hunters log jammed in these areas because of the limited public ground on this hunt.

There were alot of people up there and alot of shooting. But while i sat below the peak of Bald Mountain, i watched some young bucks sneaking around hunters and they were never spotted. Watched a spike 500 yards from me sneak away from a guy in the aspens just above Harkers Canyon. The guy was oblivious to him being there by his actions. Those deer got educated pretty quick, but with that many hunters, some probably got pushed right into someone else.
From what i heard shot wise, most of the people up there on Sunday couldn't shoot well. I had 2 guys 400 yards below me take 8 shots to kill one deer.

Its mountain Dell reservoir, just on the North side of I-15 in Parleys Canyon. If you want any Bulls in that area be prepared to hike in 3-5 miles, and break your back packing it out ;-)

Tony,
I hiked 4 miles up the trail. I hunted in the fresh snow from Saturday night. I don't think the elk are there in those canyons just yet. all the hunters moving through there and not even a track was seen by me anywhere.

Muzz,
Yes you can hunt the resort property but you have to be a member and you have to draw a resort tag. Pay a fee and possibly do some work???? Not positive about the work, I haven't hunted up there for many many years. Pretty popular thus the resort drawing, check their website.

On second thought, there is no Elk in there, period.____________________________________________________

There were elk in there during the archery hunt. Once the shooting begins, they are hard to find until the extended archery and SNOW.....I shot a spike bull during the archery hunt.....

the only way you can hunt the resort is if you have a elk tag from them. They will not let you hunt deer in there with the combo tag. I am a member and know the security. I checked and they told me they would give the deer hunters a trespass permit to hunt the state land only!!! You could not hunt the resort because the elk hunters didnt want people in there chasing deer while they were trying to hunt elk. wawawawa more people to move things and a better chance at getting or seeing an elk in my opinion. Piss pore choice by the board up there.

You score in East Canyon? I want to see the elk you take out of there.
i didn't get out there until Sunday for elk. Think all the action saturday pushed them out. there were more hunters in every canyon all the way up to Bald Mountain, than i would expect elk to be able to get around.
