Lookin for some PMs here guys. I've got 9 Pref Points that I'm splitting with my wife and daughter (2 each) to go rifle deer hunting this year. That puts us at average of 4 Pref points. So we can pretty much draw any rifle deer tag. I'm also hoping to mentor my tag to my 12 year old son as its...

Just a video from Youtube with a GIANT buck..!! Anyone recognize him?

Is this even a thing.? Has it been proposed or maybe even tried somewhere.? We talk about many issues with deer numbers going down, could it be possible to capture does and inseminate them.? Could we put hundreds or maybe thousands of additional deer back on the mountain every year.? :unsure:

This got posted up on YouTube yesterday... if there were checkboxes for the many ways I despise where hunting has come, I'd say this hunt checks most of them...

First of all, to all you regular elk hunters that get out there every year and kill and pack bulls- You're a bunch of sick individuals.! :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: Packing an elk is my new favorite/least-favorite thing. Video to come as well... On Saturday the 23rd I threw my wife a big 40th B-Day...

My dad, 67, burned his points on this hunt and we're ecstatic he drew.! Lookin for anyone who had this tag in the last couple years. My family and I know the unit quite well, been on several deer hunts, but, have only been there during the Muzzy Elk hunt once in 2016... Just want a report of how...

Anyone know..?

ATL: Fake ATL: So out of shape.!! Only did 4.81 miles, 4550 total elevation gain, for this guy (and a 2 point deer). Also, despite the crazy number of animals that were in this area all winter, only met 3 other guys with sheds, and a dozen or more without... Lots of "shed poaching" took...

My dad turned 69 last month. He's been chasing an Early Rifle Bull hunt for 18 years and he's decided he'd better draw a tag before he's too old to get around. So, he's jumping ship for a sure thing this year. He's got 18 points and we have a few hunts we think would be good. One concern I have...

Gonna miss this tradition with my family...

Well, there goes that tradition for my family...

FIL sent this over to me today. Somebody's living right, and isn't quite sure how to handle it... ?

Check out this vid I came across. Maybe this is why whitetails are thriving while western big game are not...

I know its a bit late maybe to be starting a Hunt Adventure thread, but I figure its a great way to share what has already been an exciting year and will hopefully culminate in a great hunt for my daughter. Back in May, I was at work having a pretty normal day when my banking app chimed to let...

What do you think this guy scores right now? How much more do you think he'll grow.? Photo from July 22nd. If he ends up 180", do I get the flatbrim before, or after I harvest him. :ROFLMAO:

Spent 3 days in the Book Cliffs this weekend. Great trip with lots of nice bucks, and a few much better than average. (I put a few pics in the scouting photo thread- but not all) But, it was also great to see A LOT of fawns running and frolicking around. Almost every doe had a fawn, and dozens...

I'm sure there's more than a few excellent marksmen here. I don't claim to be, hence my thread title. Been shooting my 7mm a bit in prep for deer this fall. At 300yds, I'm basically shooting 5"-6" groups. Ive had a couple "fliers" outside of that, but pretty darn consistent. I decided to look...

A true campfire story... Post up your interactions with idiots in the field... here's one of mine: 2006, I have an amazing general season rifle deer tag for the North Slope Uintas ?. Mostly going for the deer camp experience on this one, but we had a solid plan for opening morning that involved...

Hey everyone, I've mentioned it elsewhere, but I drew a totally unexpected Book Cliffs South rifle deer tag this year. While I'm totally stoked about that, my dad (greatest hunting partner) and I now have a conflict. He and I had put in for general season rifle deer at Fishlake, which he drew...

Just read this yesterday... It's some cool info about how smart our elk really are: https://kslnewsradio.com/1964240/elk-move-to-private-land-when-hunting-season-starts-say-byu-researchers/#:~:text=PROVO%2C%20Utah%20%E2%80%94%20A%20new%20study,groups%2C%20and%20Brigham%20Young%20University.

Found this on the Boone & Crockett website recently. Thought it was worth referring y'all over there to see what their thoughts and positions are regarding things like Trophy Hunting, Technology, Fair Chase, etc... This is why I still have respect for the club...

So, many of you may have seen the pics and video of my cousin's Book Cliffs deer hunt this year. For those who didn't, here are a couple pics of his buck: Anyway, when my cousin took it to his butcher, he immediately said the buck must have sustained an injury of some kind that likely made...

Can anyone explain this guy to me? Book Cliffs buck from Oct. 24, 2021.

Quick video of my cousin's rifle hunt in the Book Cliffs this year. It was an amazing fun time and we couldn't have been more excited with the result.!! Bruiser of a buck. Enjoy.!

Got a little bored today and started to look at some deer numbers in the Book Cliffs. Curious what some of you may think of these numbers and how they affect the deer population there, and likely elsewhere in the state. The deer population objective for the unit is 9000 according to the DWR...

Hey guys. I love taxidermy as an artwork and as a great way to pay homage to and remember the hunts we have been on. A family member just got a buck for his wall. He talked to his local taxidermist who told him it would be two years before it will be done. Aside from tanning the cape and...

I haven't bought a General Season Elk tag in years. After some run-ins with elk last fall while just camping, and having kids that couldn't get enough of it, I decided I'd purchase a tag this year and we'll try our luck. Let the fun begin! Logged in this morning at 7:55am to find tags were not...

These antlers were found 2 years apart... The antler on the Mountain Mike's is part of a set. That antler scores 72 3/8" Two years later, the second antler was found within a few hundred yards of where the first one was found. The second antler scores 82 3/8" What do you guys think? Same buck.?

So, I've watched tons of guys videos where they shed hunt, with a dog. But I've never once seen the dog bring a shed to anyone without that someone pointing it out to the dog first... I've hunted upland game my whole life, used dogs most of it. I known the dogs have hunting instincts and that...

I mean, is it big enough for an Alcatraz Tag Holder..?? "Therefore, wo be unto him that is at ease in Zion!" 2 Ne. 28: 24

Well, the wife and I found out recently that we will be having a baby in August..!! Hooray..!! I have 3 General Season Preference points and it looks like maybe I can take my family (wife and soon to be 4 kids) on a decent rifle deer hunt this year with me. I'm thinking Pine Valley looks...

LAST EDITED ON Mar-11-17 AT 08:56AM (MST)[p]LAST EDITED ON Mar-11-17 AT 08:55?AM (MST) Got my Book Cliffs buck back from the taxi last week on my BDay.!! I think he looks amazing..!! What a great looking deer. It's no wonder I pulled the trigger on him. On a side note, my BC buck has...

First off, I am from Utah. Some of you may already know this. I am inquiring about Region K. Why..?? Because my dad has 5 PP for WY and wants to hunt it this year before he feels too old. (I hope he doesn't read that). We don't think Region G is doable for him as he is now 63 and has some health...

Just thought I'd throw out a question about when the HAC threads would be voted on..?? After the Photo Contest is over..?? "Therefore, wo be unto him that is at ease in Zion!" 2 Ne. 28: 24

Does anyone know where I can find information about Utah state lands that have been sold off in recent years..?? "Therefore, wo be unto him that is at ease in Zion!" 2 Ne. 28: 24

Hey guys, I added a bunch of photos in my HAC from Antelope Island this weekend. Been waitin for the rut to kick in out there for over a week now. Finally, they are in rut mode, and you can check them out for a few more days before the hunts start... Here's one to get it started, anyone wanna...

Hey guys, finally got everything edited together in a recap video of my short rifle hunt to the Book Cliffs. As many of you know, this is the final leg of my Multi-Season Tag. I hadn't had much luck finding the big boys, but I finally came across a beautiful buck that I just couldn't pass up...
