Good day. Had the good fortune to draw the non-resident archery management buck tag in the Henry Mountains. That's the good news. Bad news, I'm going to miss the first week of season due to a coastal black bear hunt in Alaska. Still, that leaves two full weeks of hunting. Typically, I would...

Good day. Submitted all my NR Utah apps yesterday...so this thread is not about the 2019 hunting seasons...but beyond, possibly as soon as 2020...maybe later? The older I get, the worse my odds get of ever drawing a LE archery deer tag in Utah. Guess I can live with that reality, but I still...

Good day. I will be driving out from Indiana the 3rd weekend in September for a three species (antelope, moose and deer) combo bowhunt. Told the wife to expect me to be gone three weeks minimum. First leg of the hunt will be for antelope in the SW corner of the state. The remainder of the trip...

Good day. I will be archery moose hunting in Wyoming grizzly territory in about ten weeks. Have bowhunted among grizzlies before. I will be carrying bear spray...but intend to carry a handgun also. Everything I'm reading says I can carry the handgun in Wyoming while bowhunting. Given all the...

(Posted this on the Wyoming forum. Thought it might pick up some additional reads on this forum.) Good day. Paul Vice from Indiana here. I cashed in 13NR PPs for a moose tag in Unit 5. Talked with the local biologist and game warden. Putting a map order together as we speak. Since this is...

Good day. Paul Vice from Indiana here. I cashed in 13NR PPs for a moose tag in Unit 5. Talked with the local biologist and game warden. Putting a map order together as we speak. Since this is likely a once in a lifetime tag, I'm allowing at least three weeks for the hunt. Planning to drive...

Looking for some advice here. I'm the guy that lost a bull elk in the Books at the tail end of the archery season. The bull was located less than a week later during the rifle hunt. Utah F&G would not allow the individual to bring the head out for me. A game warden was supposed to retrieve the...

Never lost an elk before...and I realize this is a long shot, but thought it was worth a try. I arrowed a bull last Tuesday evening in the Book Cliffs Bittercreek unit on the ridge between Railroad and Dry Canyon. Shot placement looked good. Not a pass through, but penetration looked good...

Found out I drew a LE archery elk tag for the Book Cliffs Bitter Creek unit. Pretty excited to say the least! Having never laid eyes on the area, would love to hear some of your experiences in the Books. Thanks, Paul

Good day. Planning my second attempt at Colorado mule deer with a bow. Starting fresh with zero points and this unit is at the top of my list. Problem is, my list is derived from "on paper" research, not real world scouting. Would love to hear from those of you with experience in the unit...

Good day. I'll be flying to Colorado in late August to chase mule deer in Unit 61. First ever mule deer hunt for me. Have my maps ordered and been using Google Earth quite a bit since drawing the tag. Since I'll be flying in, camp will be on my back. It doesn't appear I can get very far off...

Good day. I'll be heading to Colorado for a DIY mule deer bowhunt in late August. My intent is to bivy in for 4-5 days at a time. Will be hunting at elevations fom 8,000'-9,500'. Question is, what is apprpriate clothing for such a hunt? My previous trips to Colorado have been a couple weeks...

Good day. Been considering a future mule deer archery hunt in Nevada. My research on particular areas to this point are nil. About all I've done so far is browse the NDOW website. The bonus point situation seems quite pricey at $142 per year just for a general hunting license. Looking at the...

Good day. Pretty well had my mind made up to apply for an archery mule deer tag in Unit 61 for early September. In the past week, I've had two different people tell me to consider Unit 21 instead. I have the points for both. 61 is actually a slightly tougher NR draw for archery. I like the...

Good day. Paul Vice from Indiana here....new guy on the site. Monstermuleys.com was recommended to me after posting a similar thread on the Bowsite. I've bowhunted Colorado three times for elk. All hunts were DIY on public land...so I do have some experience in the mountains. That said, I have...
