On the recent episode, the professor doing the cougar collaring mentioned that for the cougars collared on the wasatch front, they were finding that they were killing a fawn deer every other day. 1 cougar + 1 month = 15 dead fawn deer. WOW...

Starting a branch off from the current Antelope scoring thread. It is probably time to have another "Pisscutter" definition debate. Its been years and there is probably some good insight from those that have joined through out the last decade. Elkassassin has been using pisscutter that way...

General Utah Muzzleloader Elk starts Wednesday. Cold temps are coming in. The area I was planning to hunt is predicted to start at -2 degrees that day. What are your thoughts on elk behavior in those temps? Will they be out feeding and doing their normal thing? Or will they be hunkered down...

Some big archery bucks are hitting the dirt in Utah. Here are a couple that are being passed around all over the place but I haven't seen them here yet. Incredible Bucks!

COSTCO has their carbon fiber trekking poles in stock. Only $29. They have been talked about a lot an various trekking pole threads here over the years. They are Strong and Light. Well built. When it comes to Carbon Fiber I think they are by far the best bang for you buck. They usually only...

There should be a law against starting a hunt on Halloween. Good luck on the muzz elk hunt everyone. And enjoy a softer opening day due to Halloween. Save me one for Thursday. Hunting vs Family, Family is winning this one. heartshot

Later this month I'm taking a group of scouts to Deer Creek Lake on the south slope of the Boulder Mountains. Does anybody know the bear situation for that area. Few bears? Lots of bears? Is it bad enough that food will need to be hung? heartshot

So Bess, is your SJ tag the Early, Late or Premium tag?

Sage has been absent for a while. Is he OK? Anyone know how he is doing? I miss the guy and hope he is in good health.

Did we lose BCBoy? I miss seeing his summer adventure pics. He's been a staple of MM for years.

Lets see some rainbows. Here is one poorly stitched together by the point and shoot. Not the best quality picture but this is probably the best rainbow I have seen in person. It was a welcomed sight after two straight days of rain in the high country.

I know in the past we have shared pics based on a common theme like windmills, old barns, etc. I came across a few cool "Burning Bush" pics that I took with my point and shoot camera from various hunts. If you have any "Burning Bush" pics, post them up.

LAST EDITED ON Feb-02-15 AT 01:32PM (MST)[p]So I just took the 2015 online course for my new antler gathering certificate. The guidebook says you need the certificate on your person to gather sheds from Feb 1st to Apr 15th. Question: I am wondering if there is an exemption for young ones. Do...

Had a tough but rewarding muzzloader hunt on the Dutton. More than a dozen bulls bugling the night before the hunt. They continud to bugle until about 3am then they turned off like a switch. Come light only 2 bulls bugled and they were the only ones seen. I did not here another bugle, day or...

Let's get some thoughts on finishing off techniques. Scenario: You walk up to your downed animal. When you get about 10 feet you realize that he is not all the way dead and may even raise his head. My dad would always tell me to hurry and slit its throat with my knife. I've done this...

Why does it take $1,000 to trasplant each doe. That is a lot of money. Give me a permit to use a tranquilizer gun and I'll be happy to do it myself for $1,000 a pop. It would make the $50 coyote bounty look like nothing. If I do 5 at a time the $5K would more than make up for my gas. If...

Hunt area 17A (Wasatch Mtns, West) includes the front above Salt Lake. It has an general any weapon season. Did they really open up the archery only area for rifles now? Am I missing something, perhaps some county shooting rules?

LAST EDITED ON Feb-16-12 AT 04:51PM (MST)[p]Now that Founder is asking for input on gift card distribution for the 2011 HAC threads; We should probably make Midnight pay $50 for not finishing either one of his two threads. :) :) :) Are you still alive Gary? It has been six months since you...

Just how big is this non-typical featured in Western Outdoors in 1985? What do you estimate the score and outside spread to be? Does anybody know anything about this deer besides what was written in the magazine? Amazing Buck!
