Thanks guys i appreciate the help

I decided to start archery to open up my hunting opportunities and give me something to do after work when i cant shoot. Due to a mix up at bass pro i received 2 bear archery species at 70#. Now both bows have the same issue but im not sure if the issue is with the bows or myself. I have a 72"...

Good point i appreciate the tip ill look into it!

Yea itll be me and a buddy probably one day drive four days in the thick and one day drive back

I do have a compound bow but this will be my first time big game hunting. Most ppl have recommended bringing my ruger bolt action 243 rather than my muzzleloader becsuse my odds of success would go up. I was assuming that meant leave the bow at home until i gained a bit of experience hunting...

This is great thanks!

Awesome i have an upland stamp so that works.

After checking out the harvest stats and scouting around D11 this past weekend i decided to grab a B zone for my second deer tag to go with my bear tag. After spending the next few months scouting d11 in preparation I'll be spending a 4 day weekend in d11 a week or so into the season. From what...

WFB is as crooked as it gets

yezzir i just put down a little over 200 for license, tags and upland

I have a .243 ruger also but like the muzzleloader for some reason. Ill take both though

Any specific part of san diego?

Im used to target shooting an ar15 and just buying whatever sounds good off the shelf. Not used to all these regulations and fine print

Son of a bee sting your right. Man i got a lot to learn still. I just assumed they were straight copper

Ill definitely take you up on that bud i appreciate it. if a blue moon rises and i draw that is haha

Great tip on the x zone i appreciate it! I applied for everything else this evening haha might as well build points at the minimum. The SSTs i have are solid copper with a plastic tip

I just went to the online license site and it had 2020 license renewals and draw tags for elk, deer, antelope, bighorn, fundraiser tags and SHARE hunts

Theyre allowing draw tags for em so im guessing

This is my first year with a license and buying tags. thanks to my bank account being stimulated the same day as tags are released i was able to do all my renewals but had a couple questions. I got an elk draw app for lone pine second period, a bighorn sheep draw app for old dad mountains, a...

Ok i think i get it. You earn seperate points for each species applied for. If you dont draw your first choice you get a point but you still might pull a tag just not preference. You lose all your points if you pull a premium tag you applied for. Does the accumulation of points put you higher up...

Ill do some more research before I ask you guys any stupid questions ? happy easter everybody!

Thanks man happy Easter!

Didnt mean to ruffle your feathers buddy. I just didnt understand how the points work. I didnt know if your points reset after you draw a tag or if they keep building

Appreciate the tip

So if i apply and get the tag do i just deny it or not use it to build points or am i stuck with it as soon as i get it?

Al Alrite thanks to you i got my hunting license! Thanks! Not that its gonna do me much good for a while the way things are going haha

will it be valid in any state or only state it was taken?

Appreciate the advice. I got the online part of the hunter cert but i still need to do the in person part. Had an appointment but it was cancelled during this whole covid19 thing. I might have to just spend this year prepping and exploring then try next year

I looked up the desert big horn sheep and its one of the first things that popped up. A bunch of feral cattle wandering public land damaging the ecosystem. Guess some ppl got charged at while hiking.

Good point. Ill just stick to gathering more info and hiking around until i pull a tag

That sounds like a great idea. I was looking into them and saw a story about how the big horns have been dying from a pathogen brought on by feral cattle that are also damaging public lands and attacking hikers. Who would i contact about possibly hunting the feral bulls since they obviously need...

i want to do it myself. even if i don't find anything for years or have to stalk a single animal for months on and off i'm willing. I just don't think it would be the same guided but i could be wrong.

haha sorry i'm so used to just calling it "high desert". Apple valley its in between big bear to the east, palmdale/lancaster to the west, barstow/ to the north and sanbernardino to the south (approximations)

I didnt even think about that thx for the tip!

High desert in so cal. 90 minutes out of LA

Well... I cant download it without an iphone!

Yea i've heard its pretty difficult to spot pigs on public land because the private land is stocked with fruiting trees, water, etc.

What do you guys mean by build points?

I didnt even think of the logistics of moving meat thanks fir the tip!
