    50 less NR tags in G

    I understand the frustration from NR, but I truly don’t understand the comparison to Utah. Let’s try to make as close to an apples to apples comparison between Utah and Wyoming as we possibly can…. Take the Cache general seasons( right across the border), and tell me how many Resident tags and...

    WHO'S BEEN TRAPPED OR SNARED???

    It’s pretty interesting to see some of the misconceptions and lack of experience surrounding trapping & snaring, and how it fuels an emotional response from some of the members here that I have a lot of respect for. Just like any other group out there, there are some bad apples, in addition to...

    WTF April Comments are very important

    I understand wanting to reduce pressure in G by regionalizing; however, I don’t necessarily agree that it will result in reducing harvest for reasons already mentioned…. I will add that from my observations, the orange army marching up the mountain the night before/morning of the opener with...

    WY TASK FORCE PODCAST

    Yeah, same here. I’m a resident, and still not a fan of having a outfitter draw regardless of percentage coming off the top of NR allocation. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not anti-outfitter, but not a fan of welfare, regardless of the beneficiary. I did notice that they conveniently forgot to mention...

    WY TASK FORCE PODCAST

    I agree that there was some good info there…. But was it just me, or did the conversation take a pretty drastic shift once Nesvik left the conversation? Outfitter agenda definitely seemed to steer the conversation from that point on. Honestly, a bit surprising their planned proposal hasn’t...

    Explaining 90/10 %

    … you know Jims has a point… let’s push for 90/5/5 (5% NR youth) for all species… so WY can stand proud, offering NR youth some of the best opportunity of any western state.

    Wyoming Task Force D/E/A on the ropes

    I’ve been following these threads for quite sometime, and have refrained from replying due to the nausea induced by Jims comments. WY has no need (nor desire, from my resident perspective) to become the next Utah, etc. with waiting periods, choose your weapon, etc. I understand being concerned...

    Oregon Snake River Unit 159

    LAST EDITED ON Jul-27-18 AT 00:27AM (MST)[p]Deer numbers are pretty dismal in the unit. Not trying to say it can't be done, but just be prepared to cover a LOT of ground ( be prepared to continuously move camp til you find a good area) and take good glass. I would say a spotter is worth the...

    Accubow questions

    I have no experience with the accubow, but another thing to look at would be the right release sold through the ?nock on? store. A lot cheaper and more portable, but is more focused on practicing your release. If your single, I'd set up a target in the bedroom, hall, garage, etc and blank bale...

    arrows for elk

    ....fmj are good and a lot of people like them, but they can bend. Just something to keep in mind. (Take a fall 8-10 miles in, and end up with a quiver full of bent arrows is possible) .... Easton axis is great. BE rampage if you want more FOC.... there are lots of other great shafts out there...

    Custom turrets

    LAST EDITED ON Mar-17-18 AT 06:04PM (MST)[p]Hopefully I don't insult anyone?s intelligence here... If you're limiting yourself to 500 yds or so, have the turret built on verified load data, and the turret is built for the approximate elevation you'll be hunting and doing your shooting at, you...

    Wyoming Worse Than Utah General Hunt

    .... not going to debate which is better, but just wanted to point out that the deer in western WY did not get close to reaching their potential this year. More energy was put into replenishing their fat reserves, than antler growth. Bucks like the one Brian killed were probably down at least...

    Founder's bill is up on the website.

    K, this is the last ill comment on this... Personally, I think there is some fallacy in the mindset that we should give our unwavering support to the guiding industry, while at the same time bash Founder's scouting service. (....If the premise for such a mindset is to keep the resource from...

    Founder's bill is up on the website.

    Ok, I'll be the odd one out on this deal... For those demonizing Brian for selling/exploiting wildlife for personal gain: this is what the whole guiding/outfitting industry is. So to take issue with Brian's service based on that principle, you have to be against the guiding/outfitting industry...

    Selling Big Buck Location Part 2

    LAST EDITED ON Sep-04-17 AT 11:03PM (MST)[p]DW....without a permit, I assume?....I believe that one has and does get enforced. No sense in debating what you can or cannot do when it is already pretty black and white.... (unless you're getting into the ethics, morals, or principal of the...

    Selling Big Buck Location Part 2

    I usually don't get into these debates, but... First off, those accusing Founder of being in it for $ for inches.... to me, I see Founder as a guy who has an incredible passion for deer and finding big bucks. I don't believe he is using this as a get rich quick scheme (if he were, he'd be...

    OnXhunt maps

    K, let me be clear that I am not an OnX guru... but I do have a gps chip that is a couple years old for the state of Oregon... and I just bought Wyoming for mobile.... my first impressions: I can only find the burn and roadless layers on when I login on the computer, not my mobile. (This could...

    Keeping Meat Cool

    ... once back to the pickup, I prefer dry ice, if available. Just remember to put a towel or something down between the dry ice and the meat. Yeah, it's spendy... but well worth it to me.

    Wallowa mountain mule deer NEED HELP

    Sorry muleyman, didn't mean to offend. No need to convince me, I believe you. Now I can say that I do know of someone with consistent success in the Caps, and congrats. ( when I hear someone asking about mature bucks I have a bad habit of making the presumption that they are looking for 4 1/2 +...

    Wallowa mountain mule deer NEED HELP

    The Eagle Caps are NOT the place I'd focus my efforts to reliably find mature bucks... especially with the expectations of finding "more".... and I say this based on a typical year. After the winter kill we had, this year will be that much tougher.... Honestly, it truly surprises me how few deer...
