Drew a tag for Area 26 (Spring Mountains) Nov Rifle Mule Deer. I live in Las Vegas so can do this hunt myself but I'd like to get a big trophy since this tag is hard to draw so looking for reasonable help. I only need guide service only - no need to accommodations since I can just drive in and...

Possibilities: Investment eg sell it for more later when property goes up. Rent it out for farm land. Build a cabin later. Use it as a shooting range. Why does anyone buy land? In theory land never really loses value unlike the structures like your house is old and things break. Bonus is...

$2k an acre so figure $200k for 100acres, $640k for 640acres. If it can be used for something else and serves as an investment why not?

Not sure you think it's a loophole. 100 acres will prob cost you a good chunk of change and tag is only good for you and your family.

Thanks but I've read all the regs already. Hoping to see anyone with real world experience eg got tags and how much work it is. Eg I can grow a carrot in a pot and claim it's cropland since it was grown on my land. My understanding is Utah gives you a tag for the entire unit your land is in...

In Utah I read that if you own 100 acres you can get a landowner appreciation tag for you or your immediate family. Do you have to farm this land or can you say buy pretty cheap junky land just to get a tag every year. Can you take elk or is it deer only?

Looking to do a guided Rifle OTC in Colorado. I was thinking around Grand Junction or Durango Areas. I can supply my own accommodations out of my RV and just need a guide. Let me know what openings you have?

What's the current law on Night Vision/Thermal in AZ? Can you use them for coyotes?

The dedicated hunter fees are for 3 years: Adult Residents: $195 Nonresidents: $1,047 plus 32 service hours My questions: 1) Do those fees include the 3 years worth of deer tags or you have to pay for the deer tag too each year? 2) Can you apply in the same year for general deer if you don't...

Looking at last years applicants only 1300 Utah residents and 170 applied for Thousand Lakes so guess it must not be that obvious :)

Ya this seemed pretty obvious to me being a complete newbie reading the Utah points system. How long has it been going on that if you don't draw your first choice you still get a preference point and keep all your preference points even if you draw your second choice? Some guys must have max...

Utah hunt newbie here from Las Vegas. I'm looking to expand my draw opportunities next year into Utah to spread the opportunities that I get tags. Looking at the map Pine Valley/Panguitch Lake/Zion all seem to have decent deer harvest odds with around 50% success. Also seems nearly...

LAST EDITED ON Jul-20-16 AT 11:59PM (MST)[p]Scored a Mule Deer tag Unit 8 Kaibab Oct 28-Nov 3. From Las Vegas area and Jeep outfitted to hunt. Trying to decide whether to go with an outfitter or not (eg if I can find a hunting buddy). I've never hunted this area but it's pretty close to home...

No draw for me in Nevada so I booked a northern Idaho hunt with an outfitter for combination Elk/Deer early Oct. I booked a single which costs $4000 but 2 on 1 is only $6000 (eg $3k/hunter). If anyone else wants to join let me know and we can both save $1k.

Still open!
