Ensign CWMU. Lost a set of chains on Friday evening (1/19). Some guys from Syracuse and I were helping a guy who got stuck. In the process, I left my set of chains in their RZR. I’m hoping they see this post and can DM me so I come get them. If anyone has buddies from Syracuse they know who were...

BWHT4x4 I could be wrong but my explanation is that you were hunting that unit during the worst drought in the recorded history of the State. Based on your comments, you did that tag right and you did the best you could. I'm not saying nobody killed big bucks down there last year, but hardly...

I can think of some stunning country in that unit that isn't filled with roads. Not saying there aren't a lot of roads but maps and OnX should get you pointed in the right direction

I've got hot take. I think Popeye is overrated. The obsession with this deer after all these years is bizarre. There have been MANY cooler deer. Yes he is big and wide and a cool deer for sure but as far as big bucks go I really don't know why he continues to carry such mystique.

Agree with the points here. Taking a photo of the area is KEY. Even a video where you narrate what happened.

I went w Ed Kiokun. Can't recommend him highly enough.

My understanding is that this is or was at one time the state record--just for comparison

I love big bison. That bull looks like it would make Pope and Young's minimum of 100 pts. Here is how I score it, L=14" M1 13" M2 11' M3 8' M4 5" Total 51 X2 = 102 I think that is a 100-105 class bull

I heard they transplanted deer from Antelope island and that's one of the reasons the genetics have really improved.

INSANE!

Thank you blank, I have never run across that statement.

As far as B&C goes. If a bighorn sheep has a chunk of horn missing does that potentially make that horn “longer” because the tape goes down into the valley of the missing chunk and up the other side or does a measurer simply have the tape bridge the open gap as if the horn is there. It seems...

Bobcatbess, that's probably the best post I've seen from you on this website. Dax, thanks for the education. An understanding of science and methods never hurt anyone.

LAST EDITED ON Dec-06-19 AT 12:43PM (MST)[p]I saw that the State of Utah changed the wait period to 5 year after someone draws a LE deer permit. It used to be 2. Does anyone know if that rule is going forward, or is it looking back as well? I drew a LE deer permit 2 years ago and was planning on...

I wish you the best, but I'm not hearing good things about this unit. My buddy hunted it for 5 days at the beginning of the month w a high profile outfitter and the biggest buck they saw was a 1 1/2 year old 3 point. I'm sure the weather didn't help. They say the youth hunt is better . . .

I had a similar experience and asked a gun expert what was going on. He said, "Your barrel is clean even if it is still returning dark patches. The big thing is to get the copper fouling out."

nice write up. My experiences with Doyle have all been positive. I've heard a lot of first hand stories about him helping people out.

I saw 2-3 when I was on the unit 2 seasons ago.

Just curious if anyone hunted the new cactus buck season in UT and how it turned out?

I'm one of these guys who thinks fair is fair when it comes to wear and tear and I don't like to return stuff unless there is a true defect. That being said a lot of companies will advertise a lifetime guarantee--or even an unconditional lifetime guarantee in order to sell more products. If...

Wapitiwilly, do you remember how many total multi season permits were available? I know they sold out.

Based on the KPCW it sounds like part of the way they found him was because he posted about it on an anti hunting website. Is that right?

I emailed Black Diamond and this was their response Thank you for taking the time to write us. On September 10, 2018, Black Diamond released its brand ambassador Andrew McLean. McLean was arrested last week and faces charges after he removed hunter?s equipment in the Wasatch Mountains. Black...

Looks like Black Diamond has taken down his profile page on their website. . .

Major props!

Looks like a grizz almost!

I have the hammock version (no tent on top, just the triangle base). The family has a good time with it. Finding 3 trees that work for the shape of the equilateral triangle can be a bit of a challenge. There isn't a problem rolling toward the middle because each side of the triangle is like a...

Just tonight my buddy said he saw a herd of Mtn Goats at the top of Parley's on the North side of I-80. I peppered him with plenty of questions. His story seems to check out. The fact some of you are saying they have crossed over to Farmington and the DWR wants a herd in East Canyon seems to...

my buddy requested the ballistics from them 3 times for a brand new rifle so he could build a chart to tape to his stock. They never gave him one.

I don't think it will take more than a few points to draw. Def interesting to see.

Little fin, that buck has quite the story behind it. If I'm not mistaken it scores over 330 SCI.

I think top rut is one of 2 companies that "get" the stats. The other is gohunt.com I give the edge to toprut at this point. I've been intrigued to know what toprut is trying to do. It's free info and it is very good.

lets see the underside of the burrs. Curious how you handled that

very cool. Let us know when they sell and for how much

this discussion would be more interesting if a stats expert would run some models.

How'd your hunt go?

very cool!

The Forest service topo maps clearly show the boundary. The short story is you can't hunt up there from S ridgeline to N ridgeline. If you really want to get technical there are a few places on the North ridgeline and at the very back where the boundary would allow you to hunt down into the...

Quality stuff. Really like the caribou
