Good gawd, nobody posts pics anymore. 23 years of wait and if someone told me this is what I was bringing home, I would have laughed. I’m still not really sure what happened as I have hunted a long time but thought this Bull was bigger but also wondering if I shot the wrong one. Spent the first...

Curious if anyone has been out on the Manti this year and if anybody has been seeing any good bulls and what the overall conditions are this year? Planning a trip over in a few weeks but just curious if anyone has any info on this. Getting a little anxious for the hunt I guess!?

Well, got the email I have been waiting 23 years for. I will be hunting the Manti with my Muzzleloader at the end of September for Elk. My Dad had an Early Rifle tag in 2013 and he ended up getting his on Skyline Drive up above Fairview. I wouldn’t say I know the unit really well but have a...

So, now that I’ve applied and deadline is near, does anybody have any insight as to when the actual draw is and when we might know as far as card charges? Just curious with them pushing the deadline back this year if that will affect that part as well. In the past it’s usually been the 2nd week...

I honestly don’t need another knife. I have an old Western my Dad gave me from his days and a Buck that I love but is aways dull. Add a havalon to the pack. I always pull out that old Western. I have always been intrigued by RELH knives and would love to ad one to my pack and maybe pass down to...

While we wait for proposals and draw deadline, I was curious to know if anybody has heard how the elk herds have faired this year? Planning on putting in for Manti and my buddy said he heard that the elk around Fairview had been hit with the hard winter. Maybe it’s not true but was just curious...

Ok. I know these questions probably get old especially to those who know certain units really well but curious what people think. I have 22 NR points. Been holding out for Manti early but not fond of the new 5 day hunt. One freak storm or vehicle problem sure throws a monkey wrench. I’d like a...

Not sure this will get as many views here but here it goes. Had a local guy do a European mount on my daughters first Bull. He had it 3 weeks is all and has the beetles. When I dropped it off and he raised his garage door, I was blown away at the smell. I picked it up 3 days ago and this thing...

My daughter harvested her first Bull in Nevada on Sunday. Landed in a bad place. Had to quarter one side and wait for help to arrive to drag him out of crevice on top of steep dropoff. Made for an interesting day but was worth it in the end. 440 yard shot with the 300 UltraMag!

Testing the waters after reading about test kit shortage. I have 1 kit. Willing to trade for 300RUM brass, 209 Blackhorn powder or any combination of .243, 6.5 Creed or 30-06 ammo. Has to be a fair amount. I know what I have. No longer need test kit as I’ve vaccinated and there’s no way I can...

Wondering what suggestions you guys have. I own an old Camelbak that has a torn strap. Thinking of upgrading if my wife is good to me this Xmas. Don’t need anything with a frame. Would like one with a water bladder. Needs to be big enough to store my essentials which include my knives, Wyoming...

Here is my Muzzleloader Pronghorn. Went into this unit blind and had an absolute blast. Seen alot of critters on this hunt. A lot of the bucks we seen had very short diggers, but seen a variety of shapes and sizes. I overjudged mine score wise but he had some of the better cutters we saw and...

Bought a Accura LR this year and have put over 70 rounds through it. Sighted at 100 yards open sights first then put scope on for my Utah Antelope hunt and sighted scope the same as open sights at 100. Then I figured I’d shoot with scope further out and then take scope off for son’s NV Bull tag...

Posted both bucks in Mule Deer forum but wanted to post some pics in Nevada forum. Both Youth tags. Tough hunt. 7 straight weekends in the field. Lots of fun and success to top it. Happy kids and proud Dad.

This is the buck my 14 year old Son harvested in Nevada this year on a Youth tag. 18 total days in the field between muzzleloader and both rifle seasons. It was a tough hunt this year, but I kept telling him late was going to get better. He held out until his last weekend. Tired but proud Dad...

Daughter’s last year of having the Youth Hunt. Finally drew after being unsuccessful 2 years straight. Really bad luck I guess. Mild weather and lack of finding Deer has been the norm for this year’s hunt. Stuck with it and ended up with her biggest buck to date. She’s extremely happy with him.

Well, 4 tags filled during our hunt. 3 buddies (Brothers) from Utah and myself. Want to thank everyone who responded and pm’d to my earlier post. Too many to mention, but a great group of people. I honestly have never seen soo many Antelope in my life. The STORM made access to certain spots...

Didn’t want to Hijack the Pronghorn judging thread. Some good information there. Got me excited. First time drawing or ever going to Wyoming. Burned my 7 points on a Special Unit 95 tag. After applying, I started hearing about the winter kill down South like Jims mentioned in the Pronghorn...

Thinking of burning my 7 Antelope points. Looking in Southwest corner due to distance to Nevada. Size of animal isn’t an issue. Think I’ve narrowed it down to Units 94 and 100. Should be able to draw one of those. Any thoughts or help on those units or any others in that area would be...

Thinking of upgrading my old Knight Bighorn. Heard the CVA’s are nice. Believe my brother has one with Thumbhole stock. I like the Thumbhole and also the break action. Would like some recommendations for a good solid all around muzzleloader to purchase. Not sure what’s out there and want a good...

LAST EDITED ON Jul-25-19 AT 06:52AM (MST)[p]I was hoping I could get any advice on this area. My wife and I just bought a piece of land right outside Donnelly. I haven't had the opportunity to hunt it or Idaho at all. I love to hunt Elk,Deer and also Turkey. Would love any help in area such as...

Maybe someone can help me out. I noticed this last year too. The recommendation for EB3038 Central Mountains/Manti early elk show they gave out 130 res/14 nonres tags in 2018 and are recommending the same for 2019, but when I look at 2018 odds on website for same hunt, it shows 125 res/11...

First buck Antelope tag in 11 years. My brother and I drew same Archery tag in 2007. We both drew exact same tag again this year except rifle in the only unit we've been applying for. My brother seen some nice bucks on scouting trips so late morning on opener found us heading to that location...

I drew a NR Summer Bear tag and was wondering who does good Bear Rug taxidermy in Salt Lake area. Will be traveling through back to Nevada. I know a really good taxidermist here, but not sure I want to wait 2 years to get it back. Any suggestions with a decent turnaround time frame and quality...

My 17 year old nephew has killed more trophies than any 17 year old I know. A 7x7 NV bull. A 351 5x6 depredation NV bull. A couple decent bucks followed by a great 4 point in Utah last year and then this one. Also, a nice Antelope last year. I'd say he's a little spoiled. Happy for him though...

My sister in law passed this guy like 4 times. Guess that was enough. She couldn't take it anymore and ended her hunt with a fine buck. Proud of her.

LAST EDITED ON Dec-24-16 AT 05:55AM (MST)[p]My brother shot this buck in Nevada this year. His biggest to date. Roughed at 177 5/8" .

Well, my daughter drew her first deer tag here in Nevada. Harvested with my muzzleloader at 103 yards. Passed on some smaller ones. Said she wanted at least a 3 point. Asked her several times if she'd be happy with this buck as she missed once and then realized 500 yards away from utv that I had...

Officially done for the year. Finished 1 for 14 in Nevada, Utah and Wyoming. 80 bonus points total in the 3 States. Couldn't even draw a stinking 2nd draw doe tag. Archery cow in Nevada in 3 weeks. Better make it count. Daughter has her 1st junior tag in 6. Excited for that. Good luck to all.

Was wondering if you seen the post under elk forum about elk and gobblers. What's the possibility of getting a forum started on here for turkey hunting? I know it's not muley's, but neither is some of the others. Thanks for your time. Tried uploading turkey photo, but wouldn't let me for some...

Here is my Nevada Muzzleloader buck. Not a monster for sure, but after 14 days in the field, I was happy to harvest him. I know, the shot placement I wasn't real proud of. I was a mess for the first time in a long time. Coming in to hunt rifle on the Nine Mile/Range Creek unit in Utah next...

Here is my area 10 muzzleloader buck. Not the biggest on the mountain for sure, but after 14 days in the field, I was happy to harvest him.

Sorry. I know this is the general forum but thought there might be more views. Posted in taxi forum too. Got my first tom this morning in Nevada and nobody here does bird taxidermy. Coming to Salt Lake in a month or 2 and was wondering who does really good turkey taxidermy. Thanks for any help.

Lookin for a good taxidermist that does turkeys in the Salt Lake City area. Any recommendations. Just shot my 1st tom in Nevada this morning.

Looking for a good bird taxi in the Salt Lake area. I have a couple quail I may have done. I live near Elko, but haven't found anybody out here to do it yet. May be coming in for the expo and could bring them then. Would like to find out some prices and want somebody who does good work. Thanks...

Wanted some help. Was thinking of getting a harris bipod on my hunting gun, but also need a tripod for my spotting scope and video camera. Was going to purchase both separately until a guy at work made me realize that I could get both in 1 shot. I was kind of liking the idea of a bi-pod...

LAST EDITED ON Nov-24-13 AT 09:24AM (MST)[p]LAST EDITED ON Nov-24-13 AT 09:14?AM (MST) It all started in May when we found out that my Dad had drawn the Manti early after 15 yrs. trying. We were pretty excited. Not long after, we got our results for our home state of Nevada. As I called my dad...

LAST EDITED ON Mar-02-13 AT 08:47AM (MST)[p]Hey guys. I want to start building points for elk in another state and am really considering Colorado. I tried looking up draw odds, but was pretty confused as I know nothing as I have never put in over there. My questions are, Am I getting in too late...

Hey Idaho guys. I am thinking about putting in for at least 1 more state than I have been putting in for. Was just browsing the Idaho rules and regulations. I can't seem to find anything about preference points. My question is, Does Idaho have a bonus point system? If so, can you purchase a...
