I burned 14 points in 2015 there, 1st time muley hunter saw lots and took a nice upper 170s velvet buck on opening day. I wasnt in as good of shape as I thought and didn't know how many stalks I would be able to make, and to be honest they look a lot bigger in a spotter than a scope!! Went back...

I have no idea of when or how long the seasons are, but is it a matter of hunting the bulls when they are the most vulnerable? Comparing whitetail to elk is apples to oranges but here in MN we blast all our good bucks because firearm season is during the peak of the rut? At least if they are...

I'm hoping to draw the early rifle deer in 82 next year and just curious how the season was this year. I'm not lookin for any spots just how the numbers and quality of the herd look. Thanks. Mike

I can't get the picture to open, sounds like beast though. Thanks for the suggestion on the muzzy season, hopefully in the next few years I get drawn for this hunt and if it doesn't kill me I can come back with the smokepole or bow. Mike

No, but we're a lot alike, still want to take me huntin? j/k I grew up in a town that has "Dairy Land Days", a bunch of holsteins ain't scary to me, but I don't like sticking my arm up their butts either, if you've seen that "Dirty Jobs." My pack is well broke in so no need to buy one, and I'm...

I'm a nonresident and I might be reading too much into the drawing summaries, it did take 11 last year but there aren't many guys applying with 8,9, or 10 points. If nobody "new" applies this year I'd be the 7th in line for the 6 nonresident tags. I know thats a lot of assumptions but it is...

I already applied, depends on how many nonresidents jump in, I have a decent chance with 8 pp's. I've checked out a couple areas lower elk hunting, just hadn't made a trip to check out the muleys. The guys I've talked to while in the area had nothing but to say but how big some of the bucks were...

Has anyone hunted 82,86,861 early season rifle? I have limited knowledge of the above timberline areas of these units, how is the access? I know there are some nice deer that hang out up there, just looking for anyone with first hand experience hunting at those elevations in early september...
