Thank you Jgill.

How do you find your application number? Is it the same as the transaction number?

Yeah those are click beetles. Most don't glow but some species in Latin America do. I've some that glow in northern Argentina and also Florida has a couple species that glow.

Sorry I see that you already knew what it was - I should've actually read your post first!

That's a male Cecropia moth - cool.

nfh that is a giant water bug. It can give you a painful bite but is not dangerous. They're usually found near water but are attracted to lights - yeah they can fly. In the SE US and in SE Asia there are species 2-3 inches long. Also in SE Asia they are eaten by humans.

Congrats and thanks for the great pics and report! Priceless memories.

You might try Moscow Hide and Fur in Moscow, Idaho. 208-882-0601. They've always done a great job on my deer, elk, moose. I love hair-on hides.

Daxter is right - get the lifetime license. I didn't buy one before I moved and for the past 30 years I kick myself in the ass every year at about this time. Is it not valid if you know you're relocating?

Both posts above said it all. I've taken 3 goats with a .308 all one shot, chest, from about 40 to 75 yards. None were very difficult packouts but I was selective and shot them where they couldn't fall or slide far. Easier said than done, as LBH said. Good luck!

1bigbull and albubba, I just tried to send you a PM but not sure I did it correctly. Let me know if you receive it (or if you don't).

Good unit. Which hunt, early, late? I will PM this weekend.

I had this tag last year. My then 7 year old son and I really enjoyed it. Let me get my thoughts together and get back to you in a week or so. Don't hesitate to remind me. Congrats - fun hunt.

Sorry to hear this. First Sage and now Topgun. He was very helpful and I'll miss reading his posts. Will take a moment this year in the field to think of them both. RIP

Sorry to hear that. I always enjoyed reading his posts, and learned a lot. Thanks sharing the obit Bessie.

I tried once in the Rubys - it was fun but came up empty. Try the NDOW site for info and pics, or google them - lots of images. Hunt high!

To the OP yes I had the same experience with my Kimber Montana 84M purchased in 2004. It started life as a 7mm08, awful accuracy, replaced scope, no improvement. I wasted several years blaming everything but the rifle. Finally sent it to Yonkers, and they gave me a choice of 243, 308 or 35 Rem...

I meant to send a brief hunt report a long time ago, but one thing led to another and I never got to it. Here it is. I was in 112 from October 15th to 26th, and my 9 year old son joined me for the second week. The first week I spent a lot of time driving and getting familiar with the unit, spots...

MH, sounds like you had a decent first round. Keep a positive attitude and savor every moment. Remember it's a marathon not a sprint. Good luck!

I stored mounts in climate-controlled storage for 5 years - no problems.

Congrats on the tag. I had that tag in 2008. Let me review my notes and get my thoughts together and I will pm you this week - stay tuned. In the meantime do what Codylee says and get as much time off work as possible. You definitely want to be in the field the last week of the hunt.

Thank you both for your comments. I spoke with the biologist this week and he was helpful as well. I feel like I am getting pretty well squared away on this trip. One thing - can anyone suggest reasonable hotels and restaurants in the Evanston-Green River-Rock Springs corridor? And places to...

There is some good fishing in the Beartooths. Pick up copies of 'Fishing in the Beartooths' by Pat Marcuson, and 'Hiking the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness' by Bill Schneider.

The foothills and flats surrounding the Catalinas and Rincons all hold mule deer. Basically from Catalina up to Oracle, then east to San Manuel and down the old road (forgot the name) along the San Pedro River to Benson. Then west along I-10 to the unit border near Vail. I have seen nice bucks...

Founder you have a pm

I drew an antelope tag in 112 and would like a few pointers. My 8 year old son will be tagging along to experience his first big game hunt, so the priority is seeing pretty country, an abundance of game, good camping spots, and basically having fun - we are leaving the measuring tape at home...

Some of you may remember back in the day when Arizona Game and Fish managed their bison hunts more like bison shoots, and they recommended a shot behind the ear, when possible. At that time they would divide hunters into groups of three and a cowboy would push the three bison to be culled in...

I am curious to know how others have been doing? I've hunted the past 4 days without seeing much. It snowed Monday-Tuesday but has warmed up a bit since. Anyone have any luck?

NMaddict I just sent you a PM

I also did that hunt as a NR. Lots of logistical challenges but still very do-able. I will review my notes and PM you this weekend with information.

Congrats! What unit? I drew unit 2 a few years back - let me know if you have questions.

You have a PM

I got lucky and drew 221-223 late deer ? can anyone provide pointers for this hunt? Ideas for where to start looking for deer in late season? High/low? North/south? Access points? If you have questions about a hunt in Idaho, Nevada, Arizona, let me know and I will help if I'm familiar...
