What a great buck! Congratulations!

Congratulations! I like her confidence. An old man I know always laughs when people talk about buck fever or shaking or just getting excited in general before a shot. He always asks, “why are you excited, you have done anything yet?” He said he never got excited until after he shot something. ?

That is a beautiful buck! Tell him congratulations.

With the cost of special tags going up substantially next year, how do you think this will affect draw odds?

I sent you a PM.

If the special fee is increased, is it proposed for 2023 or 2024? Thanks for the info.

Awesome! Congratulations to both of you.

Yes. My friend and I each got a buck. It was a great trip. Perfect weather, saw lots of antelope, and caught a few fish. Thank you Wyoming!

Thanks wytex. I have the warm bag packed! I’m actually looking forward to the cool nights. I’ve been up on the rim once looking around. I had not thought about camping up there. That is a great idea. Looking forward to antelope, trout, clear views, and the smell of sage brush! Be there in a...

We will be headed that way in two weeks. I do love Wyoming in September! We hope to find a couple of nice antelope, sleep under the stars a few nights, and maybe catch a some fish. I can’t wait! I always approach hunting trips like vacation and am happy to take a few minutes out of my time...

Ha! I have just always wanted to start a thread with that. Actually, I am looking for some fishing information. A friend and I will be near Alcova at the end of September chasing antelope and after that we hope to spend a couple of days fishing “the mile.” I have read a good bit about it and...

It has been a few years but I have hunted 24. My Dad and I had one of our best hunts ever there. You will likely know more about the are than me since you are a resident but I would be happy to share what we learned and help in any way I can. Shoot me a message if there are things I can share...

Headed back to hunt antelope this year. Wyoming in September is one of my favorite places!

Good luck to all those who drew a tag! I will have to take my refund money and send part of it back and try to get an antelope tag. I hope to be in Wyoming in September hunting something!

Thanks. I didn’t realize it would be a hard thing to find. We might have to look a different direction. I just think a Texas hunt would be cool. I just want to spend his spring break hunting somewhere next year. Might head to Alabama.

I don’t mind to pay. I’m just hoping to find something that isn’t a fully guided, gourmet meals, etc., situation. Thanks for the info.

I am thinking a Texas hunt in 2023 should be on the agenda for my teenage son and me. There just aren’t many more springs left with him at home. We don’t need a guide, just good ground, Turkeys, some room to roam, a place to stay and someone to say, “the turkeys are usually over in that...

Nice! Congratulations.

I love to see the pics of families hunting together!

Nice! Making memories with those kids for sure.

I am doing research on antelope areas for myself and some friends. I am in an unusual situation because there are 6 people total with a whole variety of points. Depending on who decides to go next year, we could have an average of between 4.5 and 8.5 points. I know that is a big range what I...

Congratulations! Glad you got to take your son along.

I am thinking Montana because I want to use out antelope points. Also, prefer a ranch type of hunt.

I posted about this on the Mule Deer forum and got a few suggestions, but I thought I should check here as well before I start making phone calls. Can anyone recommend a good outfitter for either antelope or preferably a mule deer antelope combo? I am thinking about this as a graduation gift...

I know it is a long way out, but I will get busy with hunting soon and January will be here. So, I am trying to think through some 2022 options right now. I acknowledge that point creep might get us but a friend and I have a chance at unit 11 for elk. I want a good bowhunt. Obviously, I want...

Thanks for the leads!

I am thinking about Montana in a couple of years for mule deer for my old man and me. We are usually DIY guys but to be honest he is slowing down a bit and I’d like to do a hunt that isn’t too physically taxing. He still gets around fine, but gets really sore now after a couple of days if...

That picture is going to be priceless when he is grown! Good work!

That is conclusion I have drawn as well but I have only looked at maps, researched the units a bit, and driven through the area a couple of times.

Just a point this year. Hoping for 2022!

For those of you with knowledge of both units, which would you recommend? Are there pros or cons with either? Is one or the other better late in the season (last 2 weeks of October)?

Point creep got me again! Good luck to all you heading afield in WY this fall. Please post pics for the rest of us to enjoy!

I agree that 24 is what you are looking for.

LAST EDITED ON Oct-11-15 AT 01:50PM (MST)[p]LAST EDITED ON Oct-11-15 AT 01:49?PM (MST) Hey guys, I just wanted to say thanks to all of you who gave me information and guidance on elk unit 24. I know I probably asked some dumb questions, but I had a steep learning curve. Consistently, I was...

10-4. Thanks again for the advice and help. Sent you another PM.

Treedagain, I have posted on here about the unit over the past few years as I tried to learn about it and make sure I was applying in the right place. I won't say that I have tons of info but I do have some. I shared what I knew about the unit with you last February via PM. I'm just going...

PMs returned. Thanks for all the help!

I would love to do a pre-season scouting trip but that just isn't an option. Taking two full weeks off for the hunt might strain things at work anyway. I'm hoping with 3 full days to scout before the hunt we can be on some elk on opening morning. As for enjoying the hunt, I am certain we...

LAST EDITED ON Mar-30-15 AT 08:40AM (MST)[p]Well, my old man and I finally drew a Unit 24 elk tag! We are both pretty excited. Work and family obligations have been extremely hectic for me, so I am just now really starting some planning. I am home today with a sick kid, so I have ordered a...

Plains game in Africa. I would like to have a kudu and impala mounted and shoot and do euro mounts of everything else I could afford.
