    WILL YOU??? HAVE YOU??? WILL YOU NOT??? SELF REGULATE???

    I shoot what I want. Most of the time now days that means I am passing. Mostly try and get kids and family of deer. Might take one if it’s a special occasion and I am with someone that would enjoy the process of taking a deer like a kid or 1st time hunter. But as long as it’s within the law I...

    Best Western Big Game State To Retire In???

    Every time I look at housing prices it depresses me. Doesn’t matter what Western State. You can’t get much for less than 400-500 thousand. Not sure how residents can make it there, especially young families starting out.

    Best Western Big Game State To Retire In???

    There is really only one state that would should be thinking about when it comes to big game. Probably not even close but you better be able to stand the weather. Now if upland and fishing is also high on the list you might be able to add another one or two states into the mix. I really dont...

    Weight lifters

    tore both peaks about 15 years apart. One felt like a rope unwinding and the other felt like something turned into jelly. Did not do surgery for either one. Tons of bruising. Bench press might be the dumbest lift of all of them. Anyways still have pain in my shoulders now doing pushups and pull...

    Idaho HB 587

    Well I have been to Idaho a few times and went home empty handed. Could have shot a few small ones but decided to pass. Heck as we were breaking down camp a small fork was standing there watching us. My son kept asking me to shoot it. I told him my tag my decision. He had already filled his with...

    Idaho HB 587

    Not saying everyone needs a tag but it would be nice to hunt with my dad or even one of my sons. We have gone on many family hunts with only a tag or two. But not letting NR apply as a group is just dumb

    Idaho HB 587

    I always find it funny how people blame NR for the conditions of the wildlife. Its the game departments that are the problem not NRs. IF you took all 30,000 NR tags and placed them back in the resident pool you would still have 30,000 tags and people hunting wildlife. Yes they would be resident...

    Idaho HB 587

    I would like a general draw. They can keep it random but it would give me a chance to put in as a family and hopefully get to hunt every few years. As it is now pretty hard to plan a family hunt in Idaho as a NR.

    Wy Point Creep Analysis

    It all sucks my friend. Being a non resident is tough living now. Really makes me kick my younger self for not taking advantage of these tags 20 years ago. Oh well, at least the last 5 years I have been able to enjoy some hunts with the dad and boys. We seem to find away to get something on the...

    Weather in G3

    How well can you hike? I have a couple spots that I am sure will hold a good buck or two but you will have to earn it. Not many great bucks left in there. In fact not many good bucks left in there that are easy to get to

    G Colorado 3rd season

    Not sure really how to start this. The last few months have been pretty rough for everyone and this would be the only big hunt we were going to be able to do. We had to cancel my youngest sons Utah Elk hunt and my daughters New Mexico deer hunt but I was hoping that things would work out and we...

    G3- Crowded?

    Camp at toboose creek camp ground. It should not be crowded. It’s off the main road enough so you should not have much dust. It’s the norther ln most part of the unit. Just by waking you won’t have to worry about seeing many people. Stay on the roads and there will be people. If you have a atv...

    55 3rd Season Deer

    Everything seems to be on a downward trend when it comes to mule deer. Problem is that it’s probably not going to get any better anytime soon. Out look for mule deer is bleak, which sucks because I would rather hunt deer than any other a animal. But I am sure my son will find something that...

    55 3rd Season Deer

    I keep looking at the maps trying to figure out the plan of attack to use the roads but also where we can get off the beaten path and into something most a driving by or won’t climb a ridge or two away from the roads. Not a huge fan of road hunting but it does have its place in cover large...

    Changes Needed to Secondary Draw and Re-Issue Process

    Well both of my boys did not get a tag last year in the second draw so playing the system will not always work. Also I agree that if they draw a tag then their points should be set back to whatever it would take in the regular draw. Nevada probably has the best system for returned tags. With NR...

    Changes Needed to Secondary Draw and Re-Issue Process

    Let’s take a look from a nonresident youth view. My son drew a really good deer tag which he is very excited about. Now the same tag in the regular draw would be a tag he might never be able to hunt with point creep and if he did ever get enough points it would be a once in a lifetime hunt. Now...

    55 3rd Season Deer

    I have read over lots of posts that I could find on 55 3rd season, so I thought I would reach out and see if anyone is willing to share a little information. My son was lucky enough to draw a tag on the 2nd draw and this is a hunt that more than likely he will never have the pts to draw again...

    antelope unit 75

    Hunted 75 last year. Great time, lots of medium low 70 goats. Not much at the top end that we could fine. Wish we would have done the trip a little different and added some fishing in.
