How much will a bears patterns change because of fires from one year to the next? I'm with in striking distances of drawing a LE Bear tag in Utah next year. Most likely, I'm looking at two years before I draw a tag. When I draw a tag this will be my first bear hunt. I've had an area picked out...

LAST EDITED ON Nov-10-16 AT 10:43PM (MST)[p]Hay Midwest I shot a buck this year that I thought about mounting so I caped it out and put the head in my freezer. As I have thought about it I think that I am just going to do a Euro mount with it. If you're interested you can have the cape from my...

While out scouting for my Fillmore Oak Creek LE deer hunt this year I found a stabilizer that some archery hunter lost. If possible I would really like to get it back to the rightful owner. It was on the side of the trail near the top of Oak City Canyon. If you can identify the stabilizer I...

What are my options? I have been using Stoney Point Shooting sticks for the past 10 years and feel comfortable taking shots out to 300-400 yards with them. When I extend that out to 500 I am only hitting my 15? gong a little more the %50 of the time. With my Harris Bipod I can ring the gong all...

Just a heads up! When I was coming home from a scout trip Thursday night I noticed small brush fire that was started Wednesday night some time. The fire is just south of the Whiskey creek area. It was a small fire and the fire crews were just getting there but the roads into the Whisky creek...

Congrats on drawing the tag. I was able to draw the rifle tag for the Oak Creek unit this year. Sure would have been nice to have drawn it last year. I have taken on new employment and don't have a ton of time build up to do as much scouting as I would like. Oh well I will take what I have and...

31incher, I have been looking at the same area for my boys to draw a deer/antalope tag. unless I am missing something most units in that area will require 3-5 antlope points to draw. your best bet might be to try for a doe antelope tag/buck deer combo if you are wanting to go with in the next...

Does Wyoming use a preference point system for the doe/fawn pronghorn permits or are they done on a random drawing? I have been collecting both deer and pronghorn preference points for my boys over the past three years. I am getting close to cashing them in on a unit. It would be ideal if I...

Yes, I drew that tag back in 99. I was looking forward to spending some time on the mountain again with my dad. I guess I will have to wait at lest another year for that.

If my dad did not have bad luck he would not have any luck at all. Looks like I will need to talk him in to giving it another try next year. Right now he thinks he is finished playing the game. 400bull

My dad has always dreamed of hunting elk on the Monroe mountain. That desire has only grown since he purchased some property on the mountain and built his little home away from home. Do to his age and his ever failing health my brothers and I convinced him to apply for the late season hunt this...

I started picking up a few bricks here and there last summer. The last brick I picked up was just before Christmas for about $30.00. I now have about 2,000 round for my 3 kids and I to plink around with this summer. 400bull

One thing to consider when getting a spotting scope is to think about what you are going to be putting it on top of. Let the quality of your tripod drive the quality of your spotting scope. You can by the best spotting scope in the world but it will be made useless with a pour quality tripod...

I have three little rug rats running around my house. From a young age I have been teaching them the responsibility that comes with having a fire arm in the house. They all know and understand that they are not to touch or play with them when mom or dad are not around to supervise them. Having...

I know that this a hunting forum but I wanted to give A big THANKS to all the Veterans out there. Because of your sacrifice and love of this great country I am able to enjoy the simple things in life. My thoughts and prays go out to all of you today. May GOD bless you and your family for all...
