So we gonna start banning horses in the back country also? They give the hunter more of an advantage than the bikes do, and you can argue long term drop camps and pick lines damage the habitat more than a fat bike tire. We gonna ban spotting scopes and binos, What about prescription...

You can hire a guide and still spend as much time as you want doing your own scouting. You can truly make the hunt whatever you want. Just because you pay someone for there expertise doesn't make you less of a hunter or take away from what you accomplish. I don't know very many people who...

LAST EDITED ON May-27-16 AT 05:31PM (MST)[p]LAST EDITED ON May-27-16 AT 05:30?PM (MST) I'll give a +1 to what has been said so far. I have been down there helping out on a couple of management hunts. We always go down towards the end of summer to take a look at the bucks before they scatter...

Go hunt. Go hunt. Go hunt.

LAST EDITED ON Apr-02-15 AT 10:18AM (MST)[p]Seriously people, why are you trashing the guy for punctuation and grammer. Did you get his point? This isn't English class. It is comments like that, that have driven people away from this site. If you don't have a comment about the topic or you...

I offered to post this for a cousin. He has a friend from back east that wants to come out elk hunting. Looking to purchase a tag or access where he can hunt big bulls. He is looking to try and keep it under $5000.00. I know things like this have been posted before, but most of the responses...

He isn't contesting what he signed. You are missing his whole point. He is upset because he feels he was treated in a disrespectful fashion. He is pointing out that he felt bullied, and belittled and feels the "customer service" was poor. Who here has not been there? It is not a good place...

remind me what silent calling is? I mean if you are silent, can you really be calling? What do you do, gesture to them lovingly?

Thanks for the positive comments. After I got done and looked back I realized I was a bit long winded Ha ha. Oooh well. I will try to keep them shorter from now on.

Opening morning found use working our way up the ridge in the pre-dawn darkness. We had not made it more than a couple hundred yards up the steep ridge when I noticed there were flashlights ahead of us. Are you kidding me! I'm not quite sure why I was so surprised. This is Utah and public...

So, every year since then, we have been hunting mule deer in this unit. We have had some success on smaller bucks, but we just never could locate the big ones. This past year the stars aligned and schedules opened up allowing most of the group to go down a few days early. With a few days of...

I thought I would break up the warm winter and celebrate the Utah application period by sharing the story of the Muley buck that I was lucky to take with my muzzleloader this year. He is my best buck to date. This deer hunt, however, began with an Elk hunt I posted on this site about five...

That guy standing on that thin piece of rock over that drop is....... insert your own word. Wow!

Just curious what some of you more seasoned bear hunters think about the hunt date changes in Utah. I have been applying for the spring archery baiting hunt and am worried that moving that hunt into June will make it more difficult? Will the bear hides still be thick? Opinions.

I apologize if this has been discussed on here before, but a while back I was watching "The Crush" on the outdoor channel. They were hunting mule deer in southern Utah. Lee and Tiffany both took great bucks from ground blinds. Both also took there bucks while other bucks were feeding on...

Could not disagree with you more hhunter23. They had obviously done a ton of scouting. They were seeing tons of good bulls. Any hunter in that situation would be looking to connect on the biggest bull he could find. As far as the gut shot goes, to me it was REAL, HONEST, TRUTHFUL. Hunting...

Point restrictions on deer don't work in this state. It has been tried before and fails. More deer are killed on those units than the open ones. Let me give you and example of what happened in an area in southern Utah a while back. The unit was made three point or better. People were seeing...

From what I have seen and guessed. Most of the bulls like that have a pedicle that is positioned on the side of the head rather than the top. The "club" or drop tine is the main beam growing out and down because of the malposition of the pedicle itself. The cause of this could be injury at a...

310 beams look long. Some short tines, average width. Decent royals. Solid looking bull. Which state and weapon?

congrats. sent you a PM Being your first post do you know how to check your PM's.

Spike bulls should be on the endangered species list. In my opinion they are one the the harder animals to kill......because you can't find one! Having said that my archery experience has been that during that time of year most of the spikes (not all) have been kicked from the herd and are...

Nothing will beat getting down there and just getting familiar with the country. There are a lot of good bucks on the Henrys and your friend should not worry about getting a nice deer, because he will. He just needs to spend a few weekends getting familiar with the roads and vantage points...

Post the gps location of the stand on M and M. Let the whole world know where it is..... Nothing like a parade on opening day I probably would have cut the tree down as well.

I ask Todd every time I run into him and he just keeps saying "Ask Adam" soooo I'm asking Adam. Still waiting for there web page to be updated with last years pics as well.

In the areas we hunt I have seen a similar trend with more elk and fewer deer. I don't have the answers but have a few observations. 1. Elk provide another food source for predators. Usually predator and prey have a stabilizing relationship. More predators eat more deer. Deer numbers fall...

Want their money? What money? $10 app fee? That doesn't even put gas in the wardens tank, let alone fuel a chopper or plane to do animal counts. I hear the "they only want the money" thing all the time, when the DWR as a whole is under funded and under man powered. Ever noticed that the draw...

Often there are bachelor groups of bucks on the Abajos the can be glassed up pretty easily. Getting close is a whole other problem as they are in open steep terrain with thick pine forest close at hand. From my experience crowding is always an issue and as always the farther you get from the...

At the end of your last video you said that you wouldn't make us wait three years before the next one.......well? Clocks ticking! Come on KK don't you have any influence??

I think starting in Gooseberry where you had success before is a good option. From my experience the deer are in the same general areas as they have always been, just seems to be fewer of them. As far as hunting pressure goes, it seems regional. More units have spread the hunters out more...

cards will still be getting hit for a few more days.

Out of that whole rant the only thing that the "Utah hunter" did wrong was "push the animals around". Which no one saw? I am also confused as it sounded like he and others were hunting sheds in the same area at the same time, but only the Utah hunters were pushing animals? Sounds more like...

We also need to remember that F&G are bound by law to meet or attempt to meet herd objectives that are set by the wildlife board. Once those numbers are set, they have to attempt to meet them.......tough job. Inexact science at best. I have a friend who is a biologist who get just as...

Gotta toss in an amen to that Vanilla. ..... And am I the only one who does not like the HAC? I think it has taken a lot of stories away from the other forums. Stories like the one posted a few years back by CALELKNUT (I think) when he drew the Monroe Archery elk tag just don't happen any...
