Very helpful information - thanks guys! When I was in this situation last year, I talked with Trails West, but just hadn't done enough homework to recommend anyone. It's good to see them mentioned again.

Guys, I'm a NR who has hunted WY almost every year for the past 30 years - almost exclusively archery elk on a GEN tag. One of my best buddies has taken a different approach and has built up max points and saved money for that "once in a lifetime" type of hunt. He's getting to the point...

Yup. I think it's Dante's 10th circle of hell - reserved for poachers and monstermuleys trolls.

I don't want to sidetrack the Evidence and Criminal Procedure study group discussion, but this post hits too close to home. I've been watching this buck for years. My wife and kids called him "the Beast," and we spent many summer nights watching him grow. I rarely take pics or post anything on...

Done.

I was out just a few days ago for a quick morning glass and saw four herds of cows. In 3 of the 4 herds, I didn't see a single calf. But, one group of about 20 head included 6-7 calves - it's crazy this year, it feels like early May with all the snow that's still on the ground.

I agree with many of these comments, but I would say there is a lot of gray area in the law. The law on this will vary from state to state. But, when I was in law school, we studied a case about this exact situation. It was an old case, but it was decided that if Hunter 1 can prove it was a...

bigbuck, a few years back, there was a fire burning during the season right next to an area we were hunting. During the afternoon, we began hiking to get to our evening spot. While we were hiking, we came over a ridge and saw a small valley full of deer, just browsing. It was really wierd...

Wow, great animals. Thanks for sharing.

RE: Deer quiz Four out of five dentists agree that mule deer will choose Chocodiles and a Tab over any other food source. Alfalfa comes in at a distant second.

I was talking with a friend today about making a reasonably quick field judgment on bulls. He gave me his point of view, and I thought I'd throw it out to the experts. If you are making a quick field judgment on a bull, what indicators do you look for in a 300", 350", or 400" bull? As for me...

Vertical, My bro-in-law drew the archery antelope tag last year. PM me and I'll get you his contact info, he'd be glad to share with you.

Great topic, and one I have debated over and over. I am one of the few believers in mechanicals. I began shooting mechanicals about 9 or 10 years ago because they are accurate and they fly like darts. I have shot elk, deer, and bear, and never had a problem, and always had great entry/exit...

I second Eel's vote, that is ridiculous, and you have rights. If I drew the Henries, I wouldn't stop complaining. Seriously, I laughed all the way through this post. Nice.
