It's been really slow for me scouting and hunting. I can usually turn up two or three groups of bucks, but this year I have only seen two bucks while hunting. I did kill a cow elk over a wallow which was fun, just haven't seen near as many animals this year. Maybe they're not coming out until...

Last Sunday I had a moose and her calf in a wallow I wanted to hunt. After some convincing I got her and her calf to move on. An hour later the elk came in to water at their usual time.

Sounds like you got into the elk which is more than a lot of people can say. You got away from people and spent your time where the elk where. My only advise, and probably the only thing I've done right, is to keep at it. Last year with my bow I had elk within 100 yards 10 times but never had...

That's the entrance wound. I shot him coming straight in and was so in the moment don't remember the details of the shot. The arrow went through the chest cavity just under the shoulder blade, cut the heart and stopped in the guts. He ran up hill 20 yards and stopped for a few seconds, as I...

After four years of tag soup on archery elk I finally stuck one at 16 yards on a Utah limited entry elk tag. One of the smaller bulls I was seeing but had to let an arrow fly and glad I did. On the four days I hunted I had elk within 50 yards six different times including a bigger bull six...

Yeah, that wasn't a news article that was an advertisement for DWR.

Not only do you want your release on your wrist, if you are hunting in the thick stuff you'll want an arrow nocked. First 15 minutes of my first archery hunt I came across a raghorn with a perfect setup (laying down looking the other direction 30-40 yards away) but I didn't have an arrow ready...

It's nice to know I'm not the only who screws up on a big buck.

He's so fat I have a hard time concentrating on his horns.

Southwest desert elk archery and general mule deer archery. I tried the general deer with a rifle in Utah one year and won't do that again.

Thanks for sharing your website WhiskeyDog. Makes me want to start putting in for Mountain Lion.

LAST EDITED ON May-20-15 AT 09:50AM (MST)[p]I was lucky enough this year to draw the archery Southwest Desert tag with only two points! I wasn't expecting to draw out for a several more years and haven't spent any time on the unit. I am planning three or four scouting trips over the summer and...
