I drew west river any deer and my buddy drew black hills whitetail. I probably averaged 15-20 deer seen a day. 95% were whitetails. Killed a 2.5 year old 8 point on day 5.
Pulled a NR West River tag muledeer/whitetail in SD. It was a last minute app since I'd blanked everywhere else. If figured correctly I had less than a 1% chance to pull it.
Good to know. I'm starting to plan my hunt. I'm setting at 13 points after this year. Really looking forward to my first Utah hunt. Absolutely love the pronghorn. What's the trophy potential like?
LAST EDITED ON Jun-26-19 AT 07:32AM (MST)[p]I was fixing to put almost an exact post like this up. We only drew buck antelope tags in 47 this year and were looking for something else to do. Is the "miracle mile" accessible from the bank? What kind of setups would work? Lures?
None of us fly fish...
Our group pulled a 47-1 antelope tag in the random draw. Was hoping for my 2nd or 3rd choice to save my points to share w my daughter next year, but I'll take it. Hunted it in 2017 and had a blast.
I'm coming out for antelope in areas 47 and 43. I've got a cousin that wants to come out for the ride along for the rise, but I'm planning on using him as my pack mule. What can we expect for small game and what license does he need?
Thanks
LAST EDITED ON Jul-09-17 AT 11:21PM (MST)[p]I've got a set of stocks that are a tripod, but I'm thinking of attaching a bipod to my gun. It's a Remington 30-06 topped with a Leupold 3x9x40 varx-II with the CDS shooting 165 grain ammo.
Is it best to come out opening week or wait? I'm pretty...
Thanks for the info guys. I'm still trying to get all my gear in check and also deciding if I want to camp or not. I'll hold 9ff on the tires for now.
How long of a shot can I expect? Farthest I'm able.to shoot around home is about 300 yards.
Got drawn for my first hunt and am excited to be coming out. Got a few questions.
How are the roads? Do I need a more aggressive heavier walled tire?
I've got access to an Polaris ranger. Will it be needed?
I'm going to concentrate on my buck first and then go for my does. I'm looking for a...
OnX maps was a definite in my choosing, but I don't want to break the bank. I've gotta get some other stuff to. I was looking at the Oregons or Montana's.
Looking to buy my first GPS unit for my upcoming Wyoming hunt. What's everyone's suggestion? I have an idea of what I want, but if like to hear some opinions
Yeah I'm a NR. Biggest thing we have around here is whitetails. I figure this will be my one shot at a trophy hunt for elk so I'm wanting to make it worthwhile.
Planning on applying for tags for next year. This will be our first hunt for lopes. Currently we'll have 4 points going into the draw. Would it be better to get another point and try leftover tags or cash in?
I'm looking at cashing in my points in either 2017 or 2018 for LE elk. I'll have 16 or 17 points depending on which year. What's the odds of drawing a good tag? With a 6 and an 8 year old at home I figure this is my best chance at getting a nice hunt in before all the expenses really start...
Man its kind of overwhelming the amount of guides out there. Looked at quite a few already. Prices seem to be generally close for the most part. What areas of the state seem to have the best odds at being able to get a good representative of each species?
Thanks for the replies. I checked when I bought my points for this year and looks like I will have 15 instead of 16. Still looking to try and draw tags and come out. Still a lot of planning ahead.
