I just got my email... They should start trickling out. Seemed like the regular draw took a lot more days this year to get all the emails out.

Thompsons Smoke House in Erda. https://thompsonssmokehouse.com/ I've only eaten the jerky and sticks they sell and it's good stuff. Never taken anything there because I process my own, but it's worth a shot!

Hell of a bull! Thanks for sharing. Got a story to go along with the awesome photos?

Great bull, really like those double devil tines! Congrats! PM Sent.

I feel sorry for the guy sitting at home feeling sorry for the guys who are out in the beautiful mountains of WY doing what they love. Not sure I understand your motive to start such a whiny thread?

Having never hunted elk before, I'd recommend you participate in the spike hunt instead of the any bull. It puts you on a LE unit where you will have better odds of SEEING elk (which would make your wife happy). Spike elk only consist of about 8% of the elk population, but seeing elk is more...

Good luck to all the archers going out in the field this weekend!

As with any legal issue, I'd go straight to the source... CALL A FISH COP!

I would stay away from anything bow mounted. As soon as you release the arrow, the bow has so much vibration in it that you will not be able to see the shot. Last year I mounted a GoPro to my stabilizer and shot a grouse to try it out. You could barely see the grouse at 20 yards. And as soon as...

I like that you can customize shelving and storage, keep things out of the wind/rain/snow, and the setup time is minimal. You'll need to have a heating system if it's going to be chilly, they do not retain any heat. Also, bring some earplugs. The rain will be heavily amplified inside, like being...

Tough to choose between 2 & 3, but I'd probably go with 2. Those bases are nuts! Do you have a side/profile shot of him?

Great read MH. I look forward to living vicariously through your trips as it will be a long time before I get to go sheep hunting! Regarding the GPS; I use my phone. I used a Garmin for a trip and the screens on those things hurt my eyes. They are a little frustrating too. For the phone, I...

I'm ready to hunt!

Agree with the above, hunt now. 4 points will basically get you any hunt. I've never done a CWMU either, but that would be the route I would go with that many points.

Thanks Bobcat! While you're scouting your elk tag down there, let me know if you see any pisscutters on the Blues you think she should cull out of the herd!

Well, we were able to pull her a SJ rifle tag! Pretty excited for her, hopefully we can have a successful hunt! I'm thinking about heading down there in a few weeks just to put eyes on the unit and maybe pick out a campsite for the fall. How are the road conditions in early June? Also, I've...

General deer tag so far, hoping it's for my wife though!

What a beautiful mount. Thanks for sharing!

camofire.com has cams on there all the time. Some are new, some are refurbs. I don't have experience with any of them, but if you're patient I think you can find a good deal? Good luck!

I can shoot!

It's elk caul and it is the sac that hold all the intestines together. You can't miss it, next time you open up the gut cavity delicately roll the intestines out of it. It shears easily so be gentle! I bet it would be better coming from a pig, I think I changed the brine 3 or 4 times and it...
