    Winter range report

    This is my non-professional view of the Grey's River deer herd. I took a trip Monday to see if any more deer had arrived on the winter range since the last storm. I was glad to see that more deer have shown up and seem to be occupying the usual places. Just not very many. I was concerned that in...

    Deer tag surrender

    I drew the early 12AW rifle tag this year. I may not (probably not) be able to make the hunt due to health issues. I have point guard. I hate to wait until the last minute to turn the tag back in, but I don't think I will be able to physically endure this hunt. I had a "medium" surgery...

    Leon Parson No-Tellum series for sale

    I have Crest of No Tellum Ridge, Slippin' Away on No Tellum Ridge, Buck Fever on No Tellum Ridge, and 2&1/2 Seconds on No Tellum Ridge. I also have Lord of the Rimrock (mtn lion print). I'm not including pics because I figure anyone interested in them already knows what they look like. They are...

    .28 Nosler?

    I've been shooting the 162 gr Hornady Precision Ammo. Well, I was until it can no longer be found for sale. So..I guess I'm going to have to get my lazy butt back to reloading. Anyone have any ideas? I would like to keep the bullet on the light side. Thoughts? Thanks guys

    12AW early

    I'm 71. Be 72 in November. 24 deer points. I doubt if I'll ever see a late Kaibab tag; let alone the Strip (impossible). So..I guess I'm applying for 12AW early. I don't get around as good as I once did, but still do okay as long as it's not super steep. I'm thinking DIY. More interested in a...

    How about this one?

    Saw him in the winter of '20-'21 for the first time. Way cool buck. 190? First 3 pics are from 2 winters ago. Next series are from last winter. Didn't see him this winter.

    What do you think would be the best setup?

    I currently use a Canon SX50. It's a point and shoot and I get some decent pics, just not what I would consider calendar quality unless I'm super close to the subject (which rarely happens with wildlife). I also own a Canon Rebel T5 for which I have two lenses: EF 80-200mm 2.8 and an EF...

    You shootin'?

    Last morning of your limited draw muley hunt. It took you 12 years to draw this tag. You've scouted 3 bucks you figure are 190+, but haven't laid eyes on them all season. Suddenly, this guy shows up. You've never seen him before. You shootin'??

    SD card erasing?

    I have 6 sd cards that I'm not able to erase. In the past, I have put them into my regular camera to erase. For some reason, this method no longer works for me. Any ideas how to erase the cards? Thanks

    Flaming Gorge

    Sometimes you can catch a big mack off the bank while fishing for bows and cutts at the Gorge. My brother came for a visit from Colorado a couple weeks ago and managed to crank in this 17 lber after a 20 minute battle. He's 38" long and waiting for you to catch him again!! He could be a 20 lber...

    Archery antelope

    I was able to stalk this goat to within 30 yds for a perfect broadside shot! Went though his right shoulder and lodged in the left. For some reason I missed vitals and had to put another in him quartering away at 51. Both broadheads ended up 1" away from each other. Opening day archery in Wyoming.

    My 2019 Bighorn hunt pt.3

    Onward to rifle season. My buddy from before was not able to come. He was hunting elk, so another buddy of mine came along for the adventure. This unit has a fast-growing, flourishing herd of sheep that roam from the top down to the river bottom constantly. You really never know where you will...

    My 2019 Bighorn hunt pt.2

    Fast forward to 2019. I applied in 2017 and 2018, but struck out. Finally I was successful after 30+ years of applying for a sheep tag! My buddy from the 2016 hunt and I headed to the unit for a scouting trip in June. Right after we arrived to out glassing spot, we immediately glassed a band of...

    My 2019 Bighorn hunt pt. 1

    Actually began in 2016 when a friend of mine drew a sheep tag. He scouted hard and hunted with his traditional bow but came up empty, although having some opportunities that didn't work out. After returning from an archery elk hunt in Nevada, I joined him for the rifle hunt. His rams had all...

    Shipping an untanned frozen cape?

    Anyone ever done this? I'd like to ship a cape that is in my freezer to my taxidermist. Never done it before, but I once shipped a frozen fish to be mounted to a taxidermist. Any ideas? Thanks guys.

    SW Wy meat processor?

    Anyone know of a decent one? I'm willing to travel 100 miles or so. I live in Rock Springs. Not happy with R&B. I used Henderson's for years. They made awesome jalapeno/cheese salami and great snack sticks. Last year I decided to have a bunch of that stuff made so I could have plenty to last and...

    Winter!

    How're the deer doing in northern Colorado? I know it's bad in the Gunnison Basin. Just curious on what you guys think the winterkill is going to be around Craig.

    Unit 70 4th deer

    It would appear that I should draw this tag with 12 nr pts. Any info on this hunt would be greatly appreciated. I would be glad to return the favor with info on SW Wyoming or anything else I could help with. Thanks Cliff

    Adenovirus

    Anyone ever heard of this disease? The Wyoming Range mule deer study has found out this disease is a major reason for fawn mortality in the Wyoming Range deer herd. This study is being performed by WGFD/UW and is currently in it's 3rd or 4th(5th?) year. Due to last year's mild winter along...

    Landowner tags

    I think it's time the landowner tag allocation system was changed in Wyoming. At the present time, 160 acres will get you a landowner tag for deer, elk, or antelope; providing that you can prove a certain amount of usage by whatever species throughout the year. These tags come out of the total...

    History lesson, anyone?

    For all you guys interested in deer units 101 and 102, here is some data that I have collected since 1988. Anything prior to that is just going from memory( which ain't all that good!). 101 and 102 were both antlered deer 4-pt or better before I started keeping records. I seem to recall 1200 or...

    New National Monument??

    Anyone know the current status of this proposal?

Haven't seen anything posted up here about it. Must not...
