Heading there for a 3rd season buck hunt. Will have a side by side that is wider than 50 inches. Is there any reason to also bring a 4 wheeler? Like width restricted trails or anything? Any updates on weather and deer movement? Thanks

I've been scouting for antelope and turning up bulls all over. Maybe an elk hunter with a unit 100 tag would like to swap information on the big goats they are seeing and I'll send you a pin of a 340 i saw this morning.....

I have an antelope tag for the area and would like to swap scouting information. I have seen several bulls in the unit. PM Thanks

I drew out on this hunt and would like to visit with anyone who has hunted it in the past couple years. Coming from Idaho. Thanks

Drew out for this hunt. Would love to hear from anyone that has been there in the past couple years, or see some pictures of bucks from that unit.

Here is a picture of a buck we found this weekend. Is he a shooter?

Thought I would share a few pictures from 2019. We started with a bear hunt in North Idaho. My 17 year old son has always wanted a bear so we went with an outfitter on a baited hunt. After a week of sitting this guy wandered into the bait. My son had sat by himself for 4 nights on the bow...

Was fortunate to draw a muzzy tag in Idaho. I spend most of the hunt grinding against a full moon, cold nights with little morning activity and warmer than average days. Its a low density deer area anyways with lots of open country. I saw on average only 2 bucks a day (November tag) but did...

My first big game animal with a bow, and biggest elk to date. General season.

I plan on being in the units later this summer and knocking on some doors for a third season deer hunt. Does anyone know if the landowners in this area are open to allowing access to or across their land, or do they typically want a trespass fee? Or is it a he!! no get off my driveway? Have...

I have the second season deer tag for Unit 30. I was hoping some folks may have some advice on the unit. I've scouted it and know weather will help. Plan on hunting the last 5 days. I'm a life long resident of SE Idaho and would be happy to swap info if it helps. My hunting partner canceled...

I have the November buck tag, and have done some scouting but I have never been in the unit in November. If anyone has any general thoughts on the hunt and migration it would be appreciated. Can swap back info on Southcentral/SE Idaho hunts if it helps. Thanks in advance.

How has the winter kill on deer/antelope been over in western and central Wyoming? Here in Idaho I doubt we even had normal winter kill but have had great moisture. We just didn't have lots of snow down low and temps were good. Things are green and I suspect we'll have great horn growth.

I'll be looking for him this fall.

The rule book says sabots are OK but have to be bigger than 40 caliber, right? Are pellets and 209 primers then legal? I have a set up legal for Idaho where we don't allow sabots, or 209 primers and only allow "loose" blackpowder. Also no scopes. It appears Utah allows 1x scopes. I am...

I drew this tag and of course I am looking for a couple places to start scouting or any advice from someone who has hunted it in the last couple years. I live about 3 hours from the unit and plan on putting in my time scouting over the summer. I have access to prime private land goose hunting...

My friend lost his grey Weimaraner dog today while ice fishing near sportsmans park in Aberdeen. An 8 year old male, about 95 pounds. My friend is sick about it. On the off chance anyone reading this is from that area please keep an eye out and call 208-241-5523 if you think you have seen...

2012 Nevada muzz buck: He had a poked eye and a big puncture wound on his nose.

Here is a buck my friend shot on 10/31 in northern Nevada. Great hunt with lots of game and few other hunters. Good times. 30 1/2 to the cheater with a 29 inch main frame.

My friend drew a tag in Northern Nevada. The buck has 29 inch main frame and with the cheater he goes about 30 1/2. 6 inch bases, 5 x 3. Very worn and loose teeth, big body and melon head. I got to watch the whole thing go down and walked up on the deer first and saw this: Got a couple...

My wife harvested this buck on 10/6, the second day of the hunt. She had a chance at a bigger one but this is the one she got! It was a real nice morning.

The deer is pretty nice also:-) My wife shot this buck on Oct 6, the second day of the hunt. We hunted some bucks we had scouted earlier in the summer. They were hanging out in an area that required the deer to be packed out but there were no 4 wheelers and we saw only 2 other hunters on...

Any advice on where to start looking in this area? My buddy drew the tag and we have some ideas and are close enough to scout it a few time. It would be nice to know some other thoughts. Thanks

The regs say the muzzleloader is legal if it uses a percussion system. Does this mean inlines are legal? Thanks

Drew the 81 muzz tag-non resident. Anyone else here draw it?

Well, its been a tough and frustrating general hunt in SE Idaho. Multiple scouting trips yielded a few bucks, but nothing of any size. The season was spent hiking and glassing and only seeing a few little bucks. Some days I didn't even see a deer. On Oct. 24th, the general hunts around my...

I shot this 5 pt on Saturday the 13th (it really wasn't June 12, 2006). App. 135 yard with a Knight Bighorn, 85 grain triple 7 and a 295 grain powerbelt. Took out the lungs. It was the 3rd time I had seen this buck in the last week. DIY, public land.

Well, is he a shooter?

My wife and I drew tags in 90-2. Any advice? How bad is the traffic from all the oil rigs and does it impact the hunting?

I drew the 101-1 deer hunt. Planning on hunting the last week of the season. Anybody out there with any advice on the unit? Any pics? Would be happy to share info about SE Idaho/NE Nevada. Thanks!

Just got a new computer and can finally post some pictures. This is a northern NV buck taken on the second to the last day of season. The weather just didn't cooperate like it should have, but finally turned cold toward the end of season. I hunted the area for 6 days and didn't see another...

I finally broke down and purchased a Knight Bighorn 50 cal. It has the 26" Green Mtn Barrel 1:28 twist. On page 2 of the manual it says "not to use pure lead bullets as they will not stay seated on the powder....which may cause an explosion." I am in Idaho and the law requires all lead...

Anyone have any info on Unit 81 they would be willing to share? I have hunted the Idaho side quite a bit, but have not been into NV. I put in for this unit based on historical success and the fact it is the closed NV unit to my home in Pocatello (gas prices suck!). Would be willing to share...

With the everchanging rules in Idaho regarding a "legal" muzzleloader I am in need of a little advice. The Idaho rules do not allow 209 primers or sabots. Powder must be loose (no pellets). In-lines are o.k. but the rules state the weapon must be "equipped with an ignition system in which any...

So I just looked up Utah and saw that I missed the big game app period, ending 2/16. DUH Is there any way to get a bonus point for deer or am I s##t out of luck for this year.

This is my first attempt at posting a picture. Sagehen should be here:

Found some interesting reading from the Montana Dept. of Wildlife home page. I have heard stories from people hunting the migration from Yellowstone into Wyoming in 2005 that all they were seeing were old, big bulls. No young stuff. While this study took place using elk from the Gardiner MT...

Shooting a 7mm Mag, factory Federal premiums w/ 150 grain boattail bullets. 300 yard +/- shot, 25 mph crosswind. How far will the bullet drift from the wind?

Well, for those of you who missed the 5/31 application deadline in Idaho, you are in luck. Due to the computer's going down on the friday before memorial day, the IDFG has decided to extend the deadline for applications on deer elk and antelope controlled hunts until June 5. Just don't put in...
