Thank you baerman I appreciate the link, it does have some decent success rates and whatnot so that is promising, I guess I should have stated that it is the November rifle tag.

Well I am in my home states thread of Idaho, kinda figured that gave it away lol. But yes idaho unit 51.

I’ve searched through the archives and haven’t found much recent activity on this hunt. Was just wondering how the herds over there are doing? best time of the month to focus on the hunt? How is the access, should a guy take a vehicle with tracks or tires? I’ve archery hunted 49 & 50 but have...

Both are amazing bulls! What size/ make of game bags did you use? I’ve been running TAG bags for elk and deer for years.

Thank you Elkoholic! Glassing is one thing that I’m kinda decent at lol. How did your hunt turn out? Deepcolor, that’s good, I just watched that not very long ago on the tele and was curious if it was my area. Guess I better plan on bringing something with tracks.

Well like most, this is my first and hopefully last moose tag here in Idaho. I’ve only hunted them once 20-25 years ago when my dad drew a tag by Dubois (think I was 10-12 years old lol). What I’m looking for is maybe a few pointers, tips/ tricks, best times to chase the long legged things, and...

The EXO did a phenomenal job! Normally my shoulders are a bit sore after packing with eberlestock packs but not the case with the EXO. Only sore part on me were my the thighs which is a given.

Played cat and mouse with this guy for almost a week, his sixth sense pretty much schooled me! Lost him for a day but luckily found him the next. Under 100 yard shot with my trusty .270 that my grandfather gave me, 5 hour solo pack out was extremely brutal! He's a 7x8, 29" wide and my second...

Finally got my 2015 buck, played cat and mouse with him for almost a week, and completely lost him for a day, until he slipped up. 5 hour solo pack out. He's a 7x8 and 29" wide. Sorry for the photos was on the hill alone so cell phone pics will have to do.

I'm feeling your pain also! Pretty positive it burnt Slate Creek and a little across from gravel bar area two years ago when I had the tag and there wasn't a deer to be seen in the burnt area.

Regs say everything west of the west fork of the bruneau which is the bruneau, confusing I know haha.

Anyone on here have any experience with this hunt? I've spent some time in this unit and know you can ride 200 miles in a weekend and not see one elk. Any hints, help, info or suggestions would be appreciated. Just trying to gather as much knowledge as possible other than what I have/ will get...

did you ride your fourwheeler right to him? lol

look in the trees not on the butte.

are you only paying the seven and a quarter for brown sixes or all brown?
