FYI I did get an email back that yes it is a possibility of the hunt being cancelled or postponed. Kinda sucks when vacation times etc have already been planned but I guess a hunt isn’t the most important issue on there thoughts. Although for a kid that has been excited since the draw came out...

Could the Government shutdown affect the on base Oryx hunts?

Again thank you. I appreciate the insight

Thank you all for the feedback. I booked flights and was given the choice of staying overnight in the “city hotel” they said is connected to the airport or the African Sky lodge (about 15 minutes away). I will have an agent meeting us at the gate and walking us through customs and gun permits...

I’m going on my first Africa trip this coming year and looking at booking flights. I’m looking at Delta from El Paso to Alanta then to JNB. First question, once I check in gun in El Paso does the luggage and gun transfer all the way through or do I need to recheck in Alanta for the international...

How does the moisture look in 16e right now

I’ll take it. How do you want to proceed

I have a brand new side x side enclosure for a 2019 Polaris Ranger. You can view the details of these at utvenclosure.com I paid a little over $600 for this last year and have never used it. I did install the installation velcro kit ( buyer will need to order one from them or just go to the...

Thank you all for the heads up.

How are the roads from 59 to 163. I was thinking about pulling a trailer for the hunt in a couple of weeks but I’ve heard mixed stories. Seems like some of the Gila is okay and some of it got hammered

I would love to give you some intel. Send me a pm with contact info and I’ll reach out to you

Thank you all for your input. FYI AA will let you fly up to 70lbs (no more than 5.5lbs of Dry Ice) and cooler no bigger than 62 linear inches. Im assuming I will be able to find dry ice in Jackson.

Does anyone have suggestions on flying or shipping meat/antlers from Jackson? Ive never had to do this so I don't know where to even start. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Just to clarify are the x bullets (barnes X or ELD X)

We are going on our first outfitted elk hunt this year and are not sure what proper tipping is. It is a Wilderness pack in where the outfitter is the guide and his wife is the cook. As far as I know I'm not sure who else will be in camp. There are three of us on the hunt and two of us are 2...

Prime Thanks for the intel

My group drew the Brunton Ranch rifle tags near the VLA. Any suggestions where to camp? Either dry or campground, we just want to be somewhat near our access to the ranch. Im somewhat familiar with the area, mostly passing through on HWY 60 or heading back into the Gila on county rd 52. Map...

Thanks ?

I saw you drew the Bruton ranch last year my buddy and I drew this year. Do you mind sharing how the hunt went.

I drew a antelope tag for the first time and I am seeing yours and others posts about the Ranches your on. How do you know what ranch your on? When I log in I see that we were successful but nothing else?

Im not a taxidermist but I will take you up on the offer!

There is a small area outside of the gate but when I was there it was filled with Taxidermist and meat coolers and there wasn't any space left to pull a camper. We ended up staying in Tularosa at a paid camp site.

Does anyone know what the "Reference Mark" refers to in the chronograph setting under the sight setup. Thanks Jason

So I was in 16D/A at the end of June and saw 4 wolves in 2 days. I saw approx. 200+ elk (all cows and calves) scattered throughout the Collins Park area the day we rolled in. I heard coyotes most the night then early in the morning there was a noticeably different howl. So we were all in...

I wondered the same thing. Also I guess you cant apply unless you put in on an app by yourself.

Horses would be nice , however if you go in decent shape you should be fine. My suggestion is to carb load with 8 or so beers before you start hiking and get after it. Be careful I heard there is a red headed leprechaun up there named ginger. Rumor is he likes men that smoke.

What hunt are you on? Archery, Muzzy or Rifle and which one?

That country is deceiving especially on google earth. To easily sum it up the Luerras have one "road" in and out and its a b**ch. I use the word road sparingly. The Pelonas do have a road that skirts it but it wont get you into any real good country. That country is really deceiving it looks...

I will be hunting 16B during the early archery hunt this year. I have hunted this hunt in the past and have spent a lot of time in the unit so I'm not asking for anything specific other than a pressure question. I didn't draw last year and haven't hunted this unit since it went to two seasons...

He summers in the White Mountains in Arizona. He has a lease up there so he can train more without the heat. I know this because he had my dog up there till August or September.

Try Terry Chandler at Rugerheim kennels. He is in Las Cruces and trained my dog a few years back and did a great job. He raises and trains gsp puppies.

I have hunted 16E several times. Whats your questions?

Sorry just had to.

What did the Ibex bring?

180 Grain Barnes Tipped Triple Shock. This was from an Elk shot at 525 yards. It was hit in vitals and went a few feet. I weighed the bullet again and it retained approx. 100% of its weight. To date I have never had an animal walk more than a couple of steps after this combo out of my 300RUM...

Not to be smart ass, but they are just about everywhere. I haven't had the tag for a few years but when I hunted it we saw deer everywhere. There was about a foot of crunchy snow on the ground andstalkimg was impossible. I never thought road hunting with a bow was possible till then.

Great Bull. I like the long neck celebration also.

Are you at liberty to say what outfitter they were with?
