    2020 Mule Deer, Alberta ??

    Difficult to contact is one thing (especially during some times of the year) but no contact since January with phone, email, social media, etc... is another. I'd reach out to someone (perhaps law enforcement) in the community where he lives and see if you can get an update on his status.

    Fence ladders

    That would be kind of entertaining - show up out there with a school bus full of guys with ladders. I'm in.

    Fence ladders

    Ultimag, count me among the delusional (although at least I can spell the word). I think the ranch could lose. And, in this case I do agree with Buzz. The attorneys could be doing this pro - bono (that means free). Its a high profile case and if they win they could gain notoriety and public...

    Any feedback on meat processor

    I generally do my own and I'm kind of picky but due to circumstances I have used Bighorn twice over the past 5 years - both times for Elk. I was impressed both times. Clean, fast and professional. Well cut and well wrapped. I can't recall the exact cost but I felt they were reasonable. I would...

    Fence ladders

    Well done Elks. I'll need a set of those too. I'd say the fences are going to get a little higher.

    Elk 4B North Early Bull Tag

    Obviously from his post the OP understands that its an off the forest hunt - not unit wide. The area north of the National Forest is about 20 miles wide by 40 miles North / south. In other words 800 sq miles. As you noted this is a limited opportunity hunt. Its open grasslands mixed with...

    Elk 4B North Early Bull Tag

    Call Daniel Franco at Burnt Timber Outfitters. He lives there and knows that country like the back of his hand. Great guy and outstanding hunter.

    Some serious hunter harassment

    Those hunters did their homework and they used their ladder appropriately. They were smart to track everything on their OnX and not get into any altercations with the ranch staff (I'm not sure how though). They have documented the harassment well. In my non - legal opinion if there was ever a...

    Mule Deer Draw

    bear, HFF'S point is that a 185 buck is a tall order anywhere in Wyoming now - even in max point units. Its possible of course but if thats your only measure of a good hunt you'll likely be dissapointed. If you're looking for info I'd suggest you look at draw odds, narrow your choice down to a...

    Lookin..

    ...for a DIY Mule deer hunt for an old guy (me) with some mobility limitations (bad hip ). I have 9 preference points. Good access, moderate terrain and the opportunity for a 140 -150 inch buck are the biggest criteria. I've looked pretty closely at unit 10, 81 and the lower BLM regions of...

    Problem!

    Hey Joe, food for thought... could be your vision but it sounds like you could have a fit issue with the SBE. Thats no surprise to me. I have one that fits about like you're describing and I can't hit S**T with it. How do your other shotguns fit ?

    OnX question, Walk in areas
