Anybody been out this fall ? I am thinking of making the trip to see what's running around. Is there anything BIG left to be seen out there ? Are they rutting ?

I have a Badlands 2200 (Approach Camo) in perfect condition. Only worn a couple of times. I would like to trade for the Badlands SuperDay pack. Let me know if anyone is interested. (Would consider something similar as well). Lets see what you have

Hello, I am looking for any information on this draw. My uncle meets the requirements to put in. He would like to apply for a good Whitetail unit. Are these hunts a lottery draw meaning tons apply ? I am just scratching the surface here, so any info would be greatly appreciated...

Hello all, I am looking for pedestal habitat ideas for my 2023 Henry's buck mount. I am pretty set on an octagon type barn wood pedestal, but I am lost when it comes to habitats to add to the top. Any pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

After spending time on the Henry's and seeing that the majority of the draw hunters are not their spring chicken self any more.. Many have waited years and years to draw. Sitting around the campfire last week a questions came up. Can someone, guide, friend or anyone pack the gun/ bow for...

Lots of talk about long range weapons lately. I would love to hear any experiences of you or someone you know moving in on an animal just to have someone lob shots over your head at the same animal. I would imagine cases are on the rise, especially with the Muzzy's. (No Orange) Lets...

Alright Guys, I feel like I am a pretty good judge of antlers, but with this Henry's hunt coming up faster than expected, its time to sharpen the skills. Post up your 190" or bigger bucks. Live pics or field photos welcome. Maybe a guess the score type thread on some Monster Bucks...

Hello all. Its time to start preparing. Odds say we will have a Henry's Muzzy tag for this fall. I have spent a lot of time down there over the last decade. I feel I am all but ready to get the ball rolling on this. I would love to talk to anyone that has hunted it in the last few...

What an unreal hunt for a friend of mine this fall. She worked hard all year getting ready for this hunt, then the unexpected happened. A week before the hunt she came down with Covid. We didn’t know how much or if she would even be able to hunt. She was not feeling well at all. The plan was to...

It sure has been quiet regarding the Henry's this year. Could it be that this unit has really fallen off the map? Or is it that people are just that much more hush hush these days ? Did anybody spend any time on the unit this year ? I am headed down in a couple weeks for the annual rut trip.

I have a question regarding the mentor program. I know i could research it, but its easier to leave it to you "pro's". haha. Do you have to designate the shooter before the hunt ? The reason I ask is because I witnessed a Mentor tag where there were 2 shooters. Young kids, but 2 of...

Guys, I am looking for a nice padded carry case/bag for a New Vortex Viper HD 20x60x85 Angled scope. I would imagine the size of this scope is real close to that of the Razor as well. I am looking for something to protect the scope while in the back of the Side by Side. We do a lot of riding...

I have a question. When you look at the DWR page for tag #'s for a specific unit, do those #'s reflect all the auction, expo, landowner, depredation, etc etc tags?? Take the Henry Mountains as an easy example. (10) archery tags (26) rifle tags (10) muzzy tags. Total of (46) tags...

I know there has been a lot of doom and gloom about the Books this year. I still believe there to be some good bulls running around. We will be back at it this fall with the Smoke Pole. I know the unit pretty well and have had some good success helping others on this hunt. I still think a...

Well, As always I am already looking forward to this trip. Planning on heading down on 11/8 for a couple days on the mountain. Plan on spending a day around Ellen and a day over on Penellen. Hopefully we aren't too early for the rut be be going strong. Couple of questions for those in the...

Anyone out there have this tag this year? I know the hunt is still going on, but would love to hear how it is going or how it went. I now have 16 points and have been waiting my turn for a decade. I would love to hear some stories or see some pics from this year. Archery hunters welcome too...

Hey All, I have decided to go back to the old stomping grounds after 15 years of hunting a different unit. We used to hunt deer and elk in the Twin Ponds area long ago. I recently learned that Gooseberry Road is now paved all the way from Salina to Johnson Res. I am sure this has changed...

Guys, I think I know the anwser, but am looking for verification. I currently have a Fish Lake/ Plateau Muzzy deer tag. If I were to draw a cow elk tag for that area, even know the hunt dates are different, I can still shoot a cow during the deer hunt?? Am I correct??

Hey all, I am looking to go on a hunt in 2019. Looking to put one on the wall. Doesnt need to be a 200" monster either. Other than knowing there are "none" in Utah, that is about it. I would like to keep it around or under $2K. Can anyone point me in the right direction?? Do I need to draw...

Seen this guy last weekend on the Henry's. What a management buck!! I am sure this guy would probably hit the dirt in just about every other LE unit as well. Wide, Tall, Heavy!!! Thoughts??? Who punches their tag on this buck in any LE unit excluding the Pauns and Henrys??

This one should be pretty easy.

Headed down to see some Rutting bucks this weekend. Has anyone been down in the last week or 2. How is the rut action? Curious if the deer are still up on Ellen or if they have moved off towards the Horn/Benches?. Any insight would be much appreciated.

Took a trip out to the Simpson side of the Vernon on Saturday in hopes of seeing a few deer. I was amazed at how much work is going on out there. They are chaining a ton of Cedars out on the north end near the Pony Express road. I am talking hundreds of acres. This is a good thing for the...

I was out there scouting for the upcoming Smokepole season and in 4 days, I only saw (2) guys with Archery tackle. Hardly seen any early morning or late evening travel on the roads. Where are you boys?? Maybe I am looking in the wrong areas. haha. I am just curious if anyone is having...

Hey guys, I recently put a scope on my muzzy. I now need to move the swing hammer to the side. I cant get my fat thumb in there to pull it back. It looks like it came with a tool to use on the screw that allows the hammer to swing. I cannot find it anywhere. Im sure I put it in that place...

I have been in the process of buying a new home. With all the moving around, I fear my tag may be lost in the mail. Is there any way I can track it down??

Question, I will be turning in a general season muzzy tag this fall. Uncle drew a Vernon Muzzy tag so I will be helping there. Do I have to go to the Salt Lake Office to turn back the tag or can it be done another way? I will still keep my points if I turn back the tag? Is that correct??

I am looking to put a scope on my muzzy. I like the Leupold Ultimate Slam scope, but dont know anything about it. Does anyone have any experience with this scope? Any recommendations on another scope to look into?? One thing I am looking for is the scope to come in stainless/silver to match...

Hello, I am looking to take my little girl on a close to home ride on the Rhino. Also looking to possibly see a rutting buck or two. Is there a descent possibility of this happening out on the Vernon?? Thinking about dropping the Rhino around the reservoir and heading somewhere from there...

Hello, I am planning a trip to the Henry's in 2 weeks. I would like to camp at Mcmillan Springs campground on the West Side of Ellen. Does anyone know if I can get my 28" camp trailer in there? Any info on the road conditions would be greatly appreciated. Any other suggestions on places to...

I wish I could remember the name of the show I watched. Sportsmans or Outdoor channel. The fellow was hunting a ranch in Colorado with his muzzy. The muzzy was scoped and he was shooting a Barnez TEZ bullet. (sabot). Do the CO muzzy regulations not apply if you are hunting a ranch?? I don't...

Can you spot the Buck?? Should be fairly easy for you "Pro's".

Hello, looking for advise. I am sitting on 12 Resident points and am considering this hunt. I have been in the Pauns Muzzy pool for a while now and am thinking of making the switch. Besides one side being a 3 point, I am thinking that I could probably connect on a similar sized or even bigger...

Besides the Monster taken off the Alton earlier this year, did anyone have any success?? I haven't seen or heard much from down there this year. Sitting on 12 points and hoping to hunt the famous Pauns soon.

5 for 5 in Colorado with the smoke poles this year. Great trip. See you in 2 years Colorado!!

CO Muzzy Buck is home! Thank you Doug Parry for your awesome taxidermy work. Turned out awesome!!

Ok. Here is the question. How is the Henry's Muzzy hunt compared to the rifle hunt?? I am getting an itchy trigger finger. I have studied the draw stats and am in the bonus pool for muzzy, but could be waiting up to another 5 years for the rifle. I like the idea of the fewer tags that go...

Well, I am taking my annual trip to the Henry's this weekend. I am hoping that someone here has been down there in the last week or so. My questions are :: Is the Bull Mountain Pass still passable?? I would like to go over the top this year if possible.. Also, are the deer bunching up...

I am actually surprised there hasn't been any talk about AI this year. The hunt has to open soon right?? Another 40"er or another 240"er out there this year. Somebody knows something..
