You and my business partner would get along. He likes to shoot from his bedroom window. And thanks for PM.

I know most of us are here to talk big game hunting. But because lots of us like pursuing other critters too, I figured I'd give this a shot. We're considering offering a partial lease of our waterfowl hunting property for the 2020-21 season. It's located on the Oregon side of the Snake River...

Here are the details on Sen. Brackett's legislative initiative that led to this mess. http://magicvalley.com/lawmakers-suggest-new-restrictions-on-idaho-hunting-tag-drawings/article_8de42ffc-d5d7-5d15-9e07-654ee22a5b3c.html

RELH, WTF is wrong with you? A guy expresses his view on an issue that should matter to all of us and you got nothing more in your holster than to call him a tool and a moron? I hope that you behave this way only behind the veil of internet anonymity.

I purchased demo binos from Camerland that arrived indistinguishable from new ones.

I'm moving to Boise from Cheyenne, Wyoming in a couple weeks. To prepare for hunting new country, I thought I'd reach out to the MM community to see if anyone is interested in trading information. I'm not looking for anyone's sweet spots, just some helpful general guidance. I'm a Wyoming native...

I stand behind G&F's efforts and will gladly support a fee increase. Kudos to the sportsmen that approached the Governor, and to Governor Mead for supporting their efforts. I most certainly will support a publicly accountable state conservation agency over the shenanigans of a corrupt...

Triple and Buzz are both right--lots of people, but good elk numbers. Get as far away from the crowd as you can. You can do this from above or below Rock Creek, but prepared to put some miles on the boots.

Does anyone think the property owner is using the development proposal to try to extort a big buyout from conservation interests? Tom Chapman has made money hand over fist using this tactic.

I too am disappointed to see the budget cuts. To help keep our critters around, I concur in Robb's willingness to pay a little extra. Where else in the continental 48 can you get the number of tags for the number of different species over the counter for the price we do in Wyoming?

...and back on the 2012 hunting season. So in the doldrums of Spring I thought I'd share some pics of my Wyo hunting adventures from the year past. Antelope season brought expectedly pretty fall colors. And my first goat buck. Just a little guy, but he made some great chorizo. Then came...

Trouble with Sportsmen for Fish & Wildlife is that its national leaders are more for themselves than they are for fish and wildlife.

I hunted this unit last year. As the others have suggested, access is very difficult. However, there are some HMAs and walk-in areas in the southern part of the unit that can be well worthwhile.

Nice detailed response to SITLA's action and future intents. But to carry your analogy one stop further, the anglers of the state of utah have thrown the first, second and third punches while you were still sitting on your bar stool. Now you have decided to join us? Thanks, we could use some...

For your info: Message from the PTA that was forwarded to me. I wanted to give you a heads up - SITLA is currently in negotiations with the Department of Wildlife Resources. Currently, SITLA allows hunting on the land it holds, and the DWR pays about $250,000/year for the access. SITLA...

shooting over bait.

Well those are quite valid points. Which is more dangerous, a wolf driving a F250 or a guy who has just poured hot coffee in his crotch while trying to use his GPS to pinpoint where he saw that 6 point last year? Good thing Postum is usually just room temperature.

Estimate is 10,000 deer/elk per year in Utah hit by cars with 90% mortality rate. USU. Compare that with the 50 to 100 elk/deer per year estimated to be harvested by 20 to 30 wolves in the Uintas, Bookcliffs, etc. Right there it is easy to see a F250 is a lot more deadly for game than a...

Well 2 million per year out of the habitat fund simply to go into SITLA's pockets is a lot. Tell me, does SITLA do anything for hunters/anglers that use their lands for the hunting ?? Do they invest the 200K per year that they get now on habitat or guzzlers or anything? Or do they just bank it...

You Utah hunters have been paying the school trust lands $200,000 per year to tresspass on their lands to hunt. Well get your checkbook out because SITLA has come back to the table and now want 2 million per year for you to walk their lands. Just so you know, this comes out of habitat funds...

SFW in Utah is pushing a bill through the legislature that will sell tags to the highest bidder for a bunch of deer and sheep that wander about this place like it was a petting zoo. The last time I was there, we got within 25 feet or so of a couple of nice bucks scattered around with some does...

yeah but now you get to pay sales tax even if you mail order. and prices are higher in the store than the same items in the book. kind of like visiting disneyland to buy a set of mouse ears instead of just buying them off the shelf in a disney store...

BLM?s draft Vernal RMP was released on Jan. 14 th and is available for public comment at http://www.vernalrmp.com .This plan combines the Book Cliffs and Diamond Mountain RMP into one Resource Management Plan that will govern the management of 1.8 million acres including the Book Cliffs...

Anybody here know much about this? Anybody care? Is this going to be disruptive and degrade that watershed, or be a good thing?
