I’d suggest calling all your businesses you frequent and explain what is happening. Like it has been stated residents don’t care, but I’m sure business owners and others who gain from out of state revenue would care. The fact they can say it’s illegal to look at wildlife is beyond me. I guess...

Go later in the season. Don’t worry about scouting. Have a gps or onx with the boundaries. It’s not about finding antelope, but more of which one. Numbers have been down but still should be a good hunt.

Anyone have some 180 grain Nosler Accubond and ballistic tip bullets for a .300 win mag they’d sell? Doesn’t have to be a full box. Just want to start reloading for it. Scratched out all the other components thinking I’d still find some bullets. Thanks

Where at was that?

I’m not going to be paying for someone else’s tag. Just figured maybe someone out there was tired of the point game and were cashing in. Guess it’ll be special draw for this year. I had never heard of the stories of outfitters or people offering to buy tags and pay for hunts just for other...

Yep. Edited it now to show.

Wondering if anyone is burning points on a general tag this year? I have 1 point, hoping to find someone else that I can increase my odds since they are already burning points. If not I’ll be putting in for the special tag. Just want to draw this year and hope someone is ready to burn points...

I’m looking for some H1000. Message me if you have any you’d sell.

What load do your shoot in your ridge? I just picked up the ridge wilderness in 300 win mag.

Pm sent. Thanks

Anyone have any IMR 4350 and H1000 powder they’d sell? Also looking for some CCI200 primers and federal large magnum rifle primers? Not looking for 1000s but a lb or 100 primers would get me a good start at least. Send me a private message of anyone has any. Thanks

If your familiar with the areas you know where both were. The one hunt you can pause the video and see what unit they had on the tag. Not sure why everyone thinks it’s all a secret. Still gotta draw the tag. I don’t think one or two video kills are gonna change the draw results for those two units.

Fires back in the day didn’t burn like they do today. More logging took place, with less environmental groups shutting it down. Extra fuels in the forest now cause many areas havent had a prescribed burn. Probably was a higher risk of dieing as a fire fighter back in the day as well. Your not...

You are gonna have a hard time hunting in the snowies. Most of it is under evacuations right now. Some of it isn’t so there’s gonna be a few people there. Better check out where your going and the “Mullen” fire before you go.

Just trying to figure out the random draw process. If you have 0 points do you basically have 1 chance in the hat and if you have 8 points do you have 8 chances? Or is it everybody has one chance in the hat? Thanks for the help.

Sent you a message earlier but not sure if you got it. How did your hunt go? Feel free to message me.

How did the hunt end up going? What time of the season did you go?

I can about guarantee most of that equipment is leased and not actually owned by them. Theres no way they own all of that stuff and they can write off the money they are leasing the equipment for a tax break. If they weren't making money I don't think there would be a show.

The only thing an expanded shed area will do is keep the honest people out and the law breakers will keep doing it. I would rather see more road closure areas in effect. At least If someone's gonna hike in a ways to get some antlers they will have earned it and I don't think it will affect the...

Just wondering if it's possible to get in some good hunting in unit 40 with a type 9 tag? A lot of people tell me it's mostly a horseback unit. Willing to work to get off the roads just want to make sure a guy can enjoy a hunt and possibly kill a bull without risking it spoiling. I won't be...

I'm also looking at unit40 for hunting this year. Looking for some information on where some good hunting is for a guy who's willing to walk. Is there a good resident herd of elk in there? Do most of them stay up in the mountains or do any of them venture down into the lower areas and plains?

LAST EDITED ON Jun-20-13 AT 06:07AM (MST)[p]Yea I'm a resident. Yea I drew my 3 first choices for antelope, elk, and deer. Was a little unsure of my choices cause I have heard both good and bad, and especially since I drew them all (like really who draws all 3 first choices). But you all made...

Got lucky and drew a 38 type 9 tag like everyone else in the country. Any areas to look into or steer clear. One thing I can't stand is being around other hunters so I'm ready to hike. Not looking for hot spots but some general idea on where most of the hunters go, where the elk move to...

Anyone ever draw this tag. Went on a friends advice and have never been to the unit and looking for some info to start doing some homework. Not afraid to get back in and work for it either instead of riding around in a truck or atv. Thanks for the help.

So I drew a unit 75 antelope tag and need to start doing my homework. Any good locations away from other hunters where some good size goats live?

LAST EDITED ON Jun-19-13 AT 03:39PM (MST)[p]I didn't realize the resident and non resident drawing were at the same time.

I would recommend starting around the 15th of April. The competition is heavy and for that article you can about imagine how many more people will be there. Of course now that article has made its rounds everyone will be out there and that group of elk will be so scattered from all the yahoos...

Here is a 200" whitetail. Shot a few days after the picture.

I liked the idea of the elk sheds I used on mine, but have intentions of putting another mount on it also. If thats something your wanting then plan for it, if not it might look funny standing alone. I would try and find a dried out cedar piece like a stump. My local taxi has one that hes...

I'm also curious at what area this is. If anyone knows or could some insight on what area in Utah would be good for a backcountry hunt like this. Never done a back country hunt and a buddy and I have been talking of going on such of a hunt. Looks like a blast.

Here is my mount and base that I just got back. I built the base and used some elk sheds I found this past spring as the support. The plan is to add another mount midway on the sheds, just below the antelope. Sorry about the dots, the lens is dirty. Heres a close up of the base. Still...

I don't disagree with the numbers aspect. There are lots of deer, but mostly in residential areas, or houses that are being put in the woods. The worst part of it all is noone can hunt them. The ones we can hunt the quality is terrible and hard to find something big and descent to shoot. 9...

I think your buddy is yanking your chain. I have been out and about shed hunting quite a bit and did not notice any areas that had a lot of dead ones. I may not have found the areas they were in but I have seen a lot of deer and they all look pretty healthy.

From what I have heard. A taxidermist friend said that a disease causes that antler configuration. The antlers are real porous. Its called EHD, eppozoic hemeragic disease (sp?) something like that. I got a few sheds like that. He got a whitetail in to mount this year that was the same way.

I live in SD, I would be willing to check it out if I had permission and was carrying my bow with me :-) Wheat fields are good choice for the november, providing there is some broken up ground or a place for them to bed.

Yea I would like to know where these big bucks are being taken. I hear of a few areas that they come from, but just about everyone I know hunts there. I would like to find an area where a guy can walk in miles and find some spots to his own. Congrats on a nice buck. I have been waiting 2...

I don't think you missed the rut. The rut usually is getting good around Thanksgiving. I shot my buck on thanksgiving and he was trailing a doe. I still saw good activity a few days into december. I have seen bucks chasing does around the 14th of December.

Wyo..PM me if you have some bigger horns your willing to get rid of. Thanks

Looking at maybe going on a DIY hunt in Montana. I have never shot a deer but I want to shoot one thats descent size. I'm primarily looking at the south east corner in the longpines. Anyone familiar with this area and deer potential, hunter numbers? Thanks for the help.

As a resident of south dakota it takes a preference point to draw a black hills tag. Basically your first year if your unsuccessful you get a point and have two chances for the next draw. Depending on the tag you draw it could be longer. West river is depends on what unit you are applying, some...
