Starting to research guides for Mnt Goat Hunt. Appreciate any suggestions or comments based on experience from those who have been there...done that.

Joel and Doug are top notch to deal with. Just ordered a demo Vortex scope at excellent pricing (nobody else was within $100 retail). Scope is brand new, not a mark on it. If your looking for a scope, their demo list is pretty long as I believe they scored a bunch of product from the Shot Show.

Pulled a WY area 94 antelope tag this year. Also pulled a UT LE archery elk tag and have spent all my time up till now on that. I understand SE WY has taken a hit with winter kill the last couple, but hoping to still be able to come up with a decent buck. I'm taking my son with me, who has...

LAST EDITED ON Aug-12-13 AT 11:54PM (MST)[p]What's your favorite meat processor (if you don't do it yourself)? Anyone know of someone with a meat locker in Heber? I live in Sandy, but will be hunting out Heber way....

Looking for suggestions on a good powder/bullet combo for deer & elk 7 rem mag. Haven't reloaded for this yet and need a load for my WY antelope hunt in the fall. Thanks!

LAST EDITED ON Feb-14-13 AT 11:13AM (MST)[p]Haven't hunted elk in a long while. Mostly an upland hunter. Son is now 13 and on the verge of "getting into" hunting. He's coming around to it and I want to get him out with me on some big game hunts. I've got 7 LE resident elk points. I'll hunt...

I just bought my son 13 (very small) a Browning Micro Midas X bolt in 7mm-08. Looking to work up a good lighter recoil load for deer & antelope, which we hope to get out and test on some coyotes. 7mm-08 brass....decent brass out there...or better off making some up from 308 brass? Any...

Just got a pic of a big typical from the Henry's with the title "New State Record". Says it 220 4/8th's ???????

Utah elk found with chronic wasting disease March 11th, 2010 @ 4:53pm By MIKE STARK SALT LAKE CITY (AP) -- A fatal wildlife disease that affects the brain and nervous system has been found for the first time in an elk from Utah. The Utah Division of Wildlife Resources on Thursday confirmed the...

Going to get a Clark Jungle Hammock and need a new sleeping bag to go with it. I have a few Big Agnes bags, but they need a sleeping pad, which I won't with the hammock. Packable size is a big deal as this will be for backcountry use. I want to go with down and not sythetic. Probaby around a...

Anyone buy one? Shoot one? Thoughts?

OK...I've been searching/looking way too long for a camera to hook up to my Swaro 65mm STS with DCA adaptor. I have a D300 setup (from Cameraland) with 50mm 1.8 lens. Works good, but way to big and heavy to pack around. I was going to go with a Lumix LX3 but the short zoom will not remove...

LAST EDITED ON Mar-16-09 AT 01:24PM (MST)[p]I thought when I put in for a CO deer preference point, I was able to choose preference point and pay for a doe tag (which was refunded mid summer). Filling out online shows $325 for the license fee (which I understand is refunded) if you just put in...

Just picked up a Swaro STS 65 and need to get setup to digiscope. I want to go with the DCA camera mount for simplicity and ease of throwing it in a pack. Now I need to figure out what camera. I don't want to haul my D300, so I need a small point shoot with decent higher ISO performance (if...

I am shopping for a like new (used) Swaro spotting scope. Does it make any different using the DCA camera adapter with the straight or angled eye piece? Is one easier to use then the other. Thinking the straight might be easier overall? I looking for a 65HD model.

LAST EDITED ON Nov-25-08 AT 05:21PM (MST)[p]Took this buck last night. 25" main frame and 32" to the stickers. 2.5 hr stalk ended in 54yrd shot.

Hey Joel, Do you carry the LX3? Looks to be a sweet little camera. Shoots RAW, which is a big plus to me. Looking for a nice pocket camera for the bird vest. Let me know...thanks. -Andrew

Had to shoot it at 800ISO and 1/60th so not as sharp as it could have been with better light. Plus I was lucky..since I don't hand hold my 200-400 very well.

Here's to all those fork horns that won't make it through the fall..

Few pics from our recent Ptarmigan hunt. Didn't get into any birds, but still had a great time. Each year that 55lb pack gets heavier and heavier to carry in the +10 miles.

Just wondering if anyone has experienced problems with their D300 showing that the batteries are dead (Dead Battery Syndrom-DBS), when they actually are not. It's being reported more frequent with the 70-200 and bigger lens. I know there are a few guys that shoot big lens here, so I am curious...

I'm up to 10 points for moose (resident). I have been applying for the Wasatch tag, but my chances are still pretty damn low. I'm not familiar with any of the cwmu's and was wondering if anyone knows of a few that might be worth looking at with 10 points. PM me if your willing to share some...

So what's the consensus...extended warranties on pricey cameras a smart thing to do? I believe the Nikon warranty is 1 year and I bought my D300 with Amex, which doubles the warranty, so I have 2yrs.... I have seen the extended warranty for available for $99. Need to see if Joel is offering...

Pic came from this post: http://www.e-fotografija.si/templates/?a=1220&z=94 The high ISO examples are pretty impressive, especially the D3. Hope to see my D300 show up in the next two weeks...right Joel????? :-)

Looking for a new smoker. I have one of those Big Chief smokers and it does ok for some things, but I want one that can get hotter and more control over temp. Any suggestions on model/makes? I don't need a huge smoker, just one to make some sausage, jerky and smoke some fish and birds. How...

Well...after 7 actual days of hunting the Books, I shot one on the last morning of the hunt. As has been said before, the Books is a fun hunt. Tons of deer, but not a monster behind every tree. I covered a ton of ground and only saw a handful of decent bucks while spotting/hiking/driving. The...
