Since we are dreaming. Mule deer if it was like the 80’s. But has to be Elk now.

No email for me either. No love either. Bummer

Go as close to the top as you can. Stay on the west side. Just listen for them they will do all of the rest of the help you will need. Be ready for miles of tough country. DZ

What part of the state? I have a friend that give some to a group home in Union County. I can help with checking into it, if that interest you? DZ

I'm always amazed at these post. I have never hunted in a name brand coat, shirt or pants. I have been working out doors most of my life. I can't say that I have never been cold, but I can say that I have spent days out in -40 and been just fine. I wear layers but they are run of the mill...

I'm not much of a scouter guy. I start scouting usually the first day of the season. I grew up in the Boise valley and hunted deer in 39 back in the early 80's. It was so crazy good that I took 12 different people deer hunting for their first time in a single season. All shot a deer. I...

I like a lot of the comments above have used a variety of knifes. My ultimate favorite is a Cutco Double D edge drop point. I have worked through many elk with a single knife. The issue I have is the re sharpening gaurentee, they don't come back as sharp as new. Maybe some day I will buy a...

The ones pushing the button is not IF&G it is a contractor and they don't work 8-5 usually. Private sector works all kind of hours. It may take an approval from F&G but I bet it could happen after hours if and when it is ready. Today I called to get the standard answer of by July 10th. When...

If you can be there the whole season then I would be there. If you want to shoot the biggest buck in the unit, then go early and find him and shoot him the first minute of the season. If you want a fun relaxing hunt then skip the opener and enjoy looking over all that is left. I'm sure you...
