LAST EDITED ON Jan-18-13 AT 02:06PM (MST)[p]Been doing a lot of research, talked with bio, and would like to PM somebody about some questions I have. Would rather not talk on the open forums. Can swap info for WA or ID Muleys if you're interested... Thanks! Mike "~Who says deer don't eat...

Hi OR crowd! Had a few things happen recently and they have resulted in an opportunity to move down to John Day possibly. I worked there for the USFS as a summer college intern a few years back so I'm familiar with the town, but never really got out to find any animals that summer. I've been...

So to preface this, I have a history of making short stories long! I also want to say my hunting partner and I have been hunting together since 2009 and it has been a wild ride. We've killed deer, bear, elk, turkeys, wolf, and a few coyotes together and do a lot of shooting together. He was...

Planning on taking a trip into unit 18 this weekend to get away for the weekend and maybe find some velvet! Anybody know what road conditions are up high in the unit? Can we get a 4x4 with camper in on the main roads up top? Thanks for any info ya got. Mike

Saw this on the IDFG home page under public surveys and polls. I figured while we're waiting for the draws this would generate some good discussion! Personally, I think its a great idea. I think it could drop hunter numbers and raise the quality of hunting. Here's the question: Currently...

Well not really... maybe tomorrow! ;) Sorry fellas, someone always beats me to this post and with the boredom on a sunday night I couldn't resist... And yes the tag gods don't like me anyways so I figured this post wouldn't hurt my chances any! ha Mike

Hey all, thinking of taking the wheelers and the GF down Eagle creek to the Salmon river(unit 11) this weekend to do some playing around for the day. Any ideas on how fishing would be around there this weekend? I'm not much of a steelhead guy but would like to give it a go if we stand a chance...

Went wolf hunting saturday up the Lochsa (Lolo Zone) with my hunting pard and good friend. We literally saw more wolves than elk... Not much of a story to tell here other than we were heading into a big drainage on snowshoes to chase a pack of 14. Ended up finding a pack of 5 across the river...

Already done with my 2011 ID buck tag, so am researching what to do for next year. I wasn't crazy about hunting the lowlands this year for deer, and have been wanting to do an early high country rifle or archery (if the deer density is good enough)muley hunt. We are heading back to the breaks...

If ya like just skip to the pics! Been awhile since I posted anything on here... Showed up thursday night and we hit the hills. My hunting partner's wife was scheduled to be induced for their first child saturday so he only had thursday/friday to hunt. I got him on a few bucks from across...

Don't hardly come here anymore but its that time of year again. But just seeing familiar SN's and what not had me thinking of the old memories of MM.com that will always be infamous... Such as the duck-call bong hit picture.... CASS and his toolbox (top memory lane winner for me) lol And I...

Hey all, its been awhile since I been here but just wanted to let you all know I drew the October 25 to November 24 Unit 11 Bull Tag for Idaho! I'm sooo stoked! Getting good research done already and am wanting a 330" or better bull hopefully... I'm not afraid to work for it so I think its...

Hey guys I'm a new transfer student to the University of Idaho majoring in Rangeland Ecology and Management. Loving it here so far! I'm interested in getting out and scouting for any Muleys and/or elk around here so when I get my residency next fall I have a head start. Looking for GENERAL...

http://www.monsterhuntclips.com/view_video.php?viewkey=885e0d7c260cc007e8b9 There's no way this can be for real... seriously does anyone suck that much at shooting? lol came to the point after the 3 shot I was rooting for the deer... Michael "What I could do, I was doing, and that was simply...

Well I'm getting ready for my elk hunt... Season starts on Saturday but I won't be at it until next wednesday or thursday. We're taking in our two horses in about 4-5 miles and are staying at a really cool spot... Just curious if you guys have any tips for an Archery bull elk hunt using horses...

Well, I've never shot an elk with a bull before (only shot 1 cow with my rifle in '05) and I've got the Peaches Ridge bull tag Sept 8-21 (archery)... I know there's potential for 330"+ bulls but I'm wanting to shoot something in the 300" range... So if you got some pics of any bulls near 300"...

Well as most of you know I drew the Peaches Ridge Archery Bull tag this year and was looking for some help... it came in the form of some members here but mostly from my buddy Mike Henne! We took his horses into a spot yesterday to do some scouting and had a blast! Didn't see any big bulls but...

What can you guys tell me about this area? I drew a big bull tag for archery! I'm psyched, it was my 3rd choice and I had very few bonus points! What is access like and what kind of elk numbers are there? Thanks! Michael "What I could do, I was doing, and that was simply putting my butt on...

Did I miss his 7K'th post or what? Where is he at and isn' he done picking up those horns yet? :-) Michael "What I could do, I was doing, and that was simply putting my butt on the line for my country, the country that I loved, so that all the protestors and the academics and the liberal...

Well, I got 11 more weeks until my summer starts, then I'll be working for Icicle Creek Outfitters for the summer and plan to enlist with the Army next winter... After talking with my Father I want to go on an out of state Muley hunt for my senior present and want a chance at some good bucks...

Well, the deer are soon to be dropping (some already have) and this forum aint anything like what it used to be. Do you guys believe the activity will pick up? Or will there still only be a select few who post their pictures? There's still tons of deer out there packing and there will always...

I know they're whities, and I know there's a feeder in the picture, but this is deffinately worth watching! http://www.break.com/index/deer_fight.html Michael "What I could do, I was doing, and that was simply putting my butt on the line for my country, the country that I loved, so that all the...

Hell ya I'm stoked! Just got back from Icicle Outfitters (Thanks Dale for the info!) and talked to Bruce Wick about a summer job. We agreed that once I graduate (highschool and college) this spring I'll be working for Icicle Outfitters starting Mid June through Nov. 1st! Will start out...

I'm just curious... I have a hunch that with all the MM.com members we have, there's bound to be some hunting 'celebrities'. Anybody else have the same notion that there's some hunting/outdoor legends on here that are hiding behind their screen names? Or atleast browse the boards without...

This buck is absolutely UNREAL! I don't have the score, or spread, or any measurements. My good buddies great grandad shot this buck I believe in the 1950's in the Slide Ridge unit in WA state. Any guesses on score? I have a set of sheds that go 190" and this buck DWARFS them. I'm thinking...

Check it out guys. Just got done with the first test drive tonight! It's a '79 Dodge Ramcharger. Has 3/4 ton axles, roughly 7" lift, 36x12.50x16 Super Swamper TSL's, Crossover Steering, Borgeson Steering shaft, 360/4bbl/727/NP203, Bedlinered interior, and a flat black paint job. I've been...

Well guys, just got all my venison wrapped and put in the freezer... wanting to make dinner tonight for my brother and his wife who just moved up here from California... Needless to say I want it to be quite tasty. Most venison that I've eaten has been pretty dry, so any recipes or cuts that...

Well guys, I start my college classes in the morning, and I will be graduating HS with my AA completed. As some of you know I plan on going to the military (finally decided that I'm going Army, and want to become a Warrant Officer and fly helicopters). Though once I graduate I've been...

Well guys, I finally did it. I arrowed my first archery deer this morning around 7:30 AM! I believe this was my 8th or 9th day hunting so far this year, and an opportunity came where I had the chance to stick a flop-ear and get that first archery deer under my belt! The morning found us an...

Well guys, in 29 days my Archery Cherry will be popped! I've been shooting a couple of times a week for the last month or 2, and am stepping it up to once/twice a day now. I'm planning 2-3 scouting trips starting this weekend and plan on getting some new gear. I'm wordering if my hunting gear...

LAST EDITED ON Aug-01-06 AT 12:43PM (MST)[p]Hello guys, as I prepare this next month for my upcoming first archery deer season, (already been shooting a lot)I'm wordering if my hunting gear which I usually use on the General Oct. Rifle hunt will change? This will be my first year archery...

Title says it all. I'm going to be a senior this next year and am not sure which branch of the military I want to enter. My buddy just left for the USMC a week ago so I am looking forward to picking his brain when he gets back. I figured I could ask my hunting brothers what they think! A...

Chef, I know you inquired a couple weeks ago as to how my pitbull pup was doin. She's doin great! Just 6 months old and growing like a weed! Though not as big as I thought she'd be! BTW: She sure loves chewing on my fork horn sheds!!! "What I could do, I was doing, and that was simply...

Well, my bow is being shipped out tomorrow ('05 Hoyt UltraTec). I'm looking at some gear to start outfitting the bow. I'm curious if anybody here has used this rest? It looks like it'll have all the benefits of a WB, yet without the vane damage/wear, as well as the speed loss. Here's the...

Hey guys, I was curious if anybody in WA near Wenatchee has hunted turkeys before and would mind helping my buddy and I out. He's leaving for the Marine Core May 1st, and wants to go turkey hunting with myself. Neither of us has been before and I thought some of you may have some tips for us...

LAST EDITED ON Mar-19-06 AT 09:26PM (MST)[p]Well guys, I'm leaving possibly tomorrow, but maybe tuesday to go apply for a highschooler's dream job (it's about 30 miles away). I've put in numerous (7-8) applications around town for small, part time jobs and haven't been called back (It's not...

Alright for those of you who frequent the shed hunting forum, you all know that I picked up a pair of sheds off a buck that I watched for about 6 weeks this winter. Finally found them in a totally unexpected spot. The story is under the "1 Awesome Day Pics" thread. So, what's the GROSS score...

Well guys. Since this is the forum where I hang out the most I figured I'd give you guys an update from my "Deer Hunt" this last fall (That and nobody has commented on it in the Bear forum). For some of you that know, I was able to shoot a bear opening morning of deer season. Well I finally...

Well guys, I got back yesterday from picking up my Bear that I shot this last October. I don't know if the picture shows it all that great, but he's a nice dark brown color. He goes 6'3" from nose to tail (as a rug) and was close to a 400 lb bear. His skull netted 18 7/8" and will make the...
