LE rifle antelope for me. Still waiting on emails for wife & daughter.

PM sent

My 2 brothers, brother-in-law, and I have 13 NR CO deer points. We're looking at burning them this year on Unit 30 3rd season rifle. We've only hunted CO once and that was for elk in 2020. This would likely be our one & only deer hunt in CO. Mainly we're just looking for a fun hunt with good...

This...

Got it. I added another card to the payment methods on my account and set it as the default. Thanks guys. And good luck to everyone in the draw!

In the unlikely event that I draw something, I may need to use a different credit card than the one I applied with. I assume it's too late to change that on my application. If a credit card is declined will they call?

I would guess that people who support this change would say that trail cameras are an issue regardless of whether they are on water or not.

I thought they might do something like this. I'm surprised more people didn't suggest it.

Yes

I'm not usually in the habit of photographing other people's trail cams, but here's one example. This is a pretty obscure location (not near a road) on a general unit. Admittedly, one of these cameras is mine. I broke some branches to setup my camera. When I came back a few months later there...

Unfortunately I've seen it many times on the general unit that I hunt. And I've heard it's much worse on the "premier" units.

Hey, you leave treedagain's unemployed 2nd cousin out of this!

You might want to ask treedagain. He's the local expert on how the new bill applies to family hunts.

My bad. Thanks for clearing that up.....yet.....again. (y)

Send it to Ukraine! They could use a few of those right now.

Not sure why you keep repeating yourself. I misunderstood the new bill, based on some information I had heard before reading it. Grizzly clarified in post #7. I thanked him for clarifying in post #10. It may be obvious to you (and now me, thanks to Grizzly). But I can assure you that at the...

Again... Grizzly already clarified this in post #7. But thanks for confirming. There is some misinformation going around about this, and I had not yet read the actual bill.

Grizzly already clarified this in post #7. A lot of the information floating around doesn't tell the whole story.

I don't think that's a stupid comment. I would hope that any time they pass a new bill/law/rule, they at least have some idea of how they would enforce it. I've yet to hear anything from DWR on how they would enforce this or the new trail cam rule. If I hike 5 miles in to take down my camera on...

That's different than a lot of the (mis)information that's been floating around about this. And makes a lot more sense. Thank you for clarifying.

I understand what it's trying to stop. But if it passes, it would technically be just as illegal for my three brothers to spot for me on a hunt, as it would be for an outfitter to hire 20 guys to spot for a high-paying client. Are we just supposed to ignore it because it was intended for them...

I get what they're trying to do here. But like the trail cam rule change, there is no way they could actually enforce this. I have three brothers. We've hunted together our whole lives and still do as much as possible, even though we now live in different states. Under this new bill, if I draw...

I bought this year's calendar. Didn't win anything. But my younger brother did. And my older brother won twice.

Love the hook on his left side. Thanks for sharing.

As best I can tell, after we lost the blood trail and just started following tracks in every direction, the closest we got was about a quarter mile from where I later found the carcass. Before we lost the trail, his tracks were heading down the north side of the ridge into some thick trees. So...

Here's a cool photo shared with many others in the 2021 Big Buck Photo Contest thread in the Mule Deer Forum. See it here...>>> https://www.monstermuleys.info/xf/threads/lets-see-those-bucks-nice-daypack-giveaway.191938/

Daughter's first deer.

Picking up a dead head is illegal in Utah. The Big Game Field Regulations are very clear on that: "If you find a skull with the antlers or horns still attached, it’s possible the animal was poached. Do NOT pick up or move the skull, or disturb any footprints or other evidence. The Division...

I think you missed Cooper's point. Comments like yours are the reason a lot of guys have left this website. And a lot of the ones who have stayed won't post pictures anymore.

If I'd shot another bull, I would not have been allowed to keep this one, which makes sense. I was curious about what would've happened in that situation, so I actually asked the DWR officer about it. He said they would have recovered it, but not released it. Likely would've been sold later on...

I was thinking the same thing.

Proud of the shot? No. Proud that I found it and was able to recover it? Yes.

I had a similar thing happen to me. I don't want to hijack this thread, so I just posted the story & photos in the general hunting forum.

I just read the story in the dead head thread in the Utah forum about the guy who was able to recover his lost bull 6 years later. Similar thing happened to me this year, only I didn't have to wait that long. Last year on a Utah late season elk hunt, I shot a bull that we were not able to...
