Well, I've been in the points running from the gitgo, having applied the first year they were available and every year since, and I finally hit a tag. I also put in for sheep and goat but perhaps they will come later. I hunted moose successfully in Idaho back in 2008 so I have a bit of...

Hey fellas, I hail from Mississippi but I get around out west quite a bit on big game hunts, etc. I have successfully DIY hunted goats on 3 different occasions over the past 8 years and have a decent idea of how to go about it, but I have zero information on the unit that I have drawn. I'm good...

Well, I finally got my Wyoming elk tag so now it's time to plan my hunt. I want to go unguided, but I have much to learn about the area, as I know very little about it. I'm 55 years old and in pretty good shape and I have plenty of gear, but I don't have a big tent. If you have info to share...

Hey guys, I drew Wyoming region G mule deer and I am in dire need of information on how to approach the hunt. I realize I'm running way late with my research but when I drew the tag my workload appeared so great that I doubted I would get to make the hunt. It now appears that I may have the...

Hey guys, I drew unit 12-14 Nevada antelope for August 22 - September 7 and I'm needing some good information to go on. My work schedule has had me so slammed that I wasn't sure I could even make the hunt but it's looking like I just might get enough time off to make the trip out west. I...

I'm going into the draw with max points for elk and it looks like unit 124 fits my work schedule better than the other better units. I know nothing much about the unit other than it's location and terrain, but I hear that it's a quality trophy elk unit. I am interested in making the most of my...

Hey fellas, I am holding 8 points going into the 2014 draw and I'm ready to go hunting for a big bull. I prefer to rifle hunt but I can do any weapon and don't mind hiring an outfitter if needed. My focus is on having a great hunt for a trophy bull elk. Thanks for your input, Jeff

LAST EDITED ON Aug-28-12 AT 11:21PM (MST) by Founder (admin)[p]Most guys wait a year or two after booking their Safari to finally go hunting? but in my case, everything materialized so quickly that I hardly had the time to prepare before it was time to get on with it. If you count the days...

How good are these? Does anyone have them? They are priced at about $950.00 new. I've owned and used older models of Steiners and was well pleased with them. Thanks for any info and opinion. Jeff

Does anyone know what kind of shape the antelope are in up near Clayton, in the NorthEast corner of the state? I have heard that it's so dry that there is no vegetation and the goats look rough. any thoughts?

Hey Guys, I'm no quitter, but I think it's time to stop GIVING Oregon my hard earned money. It has truly become not worth it to apply there for me. I normally submit around 60 applications a year for everything/everywhere and love the points building/tag drawing game as much as anyone. But I...

I hunt Colorado with a muzzleloader for mule deer and elk, and have a decent set-up with my pair of Knight Mk-85's which I installed the 209 Primer conversion kit in. I currently get great accuracy with 90 grains of Hodgdon Triple 7 behind the 338 gr. Powerbelt Platinum bullet from both rifles...

Does anyone have any experience at all with these? I have only seen them on the NULA website. I plan to phone the company soon with a few questions concerning recommended loads, availability of peep sights, etc. I feel very sure that their quality will be right up there on par with their...

I hope to take a grouse or two during my backpacking hunt into the high country in September and I'm not sure yet how I'm gonna cook 'em up. Space and weight are issues of course, but I will have my Pocket Rocket stove and Titanium cook pot. I considered taking a small fry pan for the grouse...

I have a new Leupold CDS scope for my Remington model 700 LSS in 300RUM. In putting together my ballistic info for the custom dial for my load, I am having trouble choosing an average elevation to set up for. Like most of us, I hunt all over the west for multiple species and can find myself at...

Has anyone had any experience with this rifle? I have been hearing some good things about it, but would like to see if any of you fellows have tried it. Thanks

Hey all you fellow hunters and shooters, I'm gettin' ready to reconstruct my steel target layout and am looking for construction ideas to kick around. I have a bench on the back deck of my house that I can go out to 300 yards from, and I want to set up 3 different hangers. One at 100, 200 and...

I have a couple of points and should be able to draw the archery tag for whitetails in Iowa next year. I'd really like to get on some good public ground but would consider a private land situation if it's a good bang for the buck. I look forward to hearing any and all advice you guys may have...

I'm shopping for a Chronograph and just like I remember in the past, the reviews I read discourage me from even buying one... it's exactly why I haven't purchased one yet. BAD reviews on all of them, mostly concerning them being so user UN-friendly. I know a ton of you guys have experience here...

I have a chance to get a deer tag to go along with my muzzleloader elk tag during the same season... Anyone have an opinion on the quality of this deer hunt? Thanks, Jeff

Hey guys, I just picked up a Co Unit 66 muzzleloader tag for elk, and am I'm feeling way blessed. I really look forward to the experience and will be driving from Mississippi to pack into the high ground for the duration. If anyone has the same tag and wants to work together, you are welcome to...
