My daughter drew this tag. I don't know much about it, so it's gonna be a fun summer and fall learning! I haven't ever hunted Coues before, so I have some research to do. If anyone would like to offer help, I am all ears!
She also drew the youth elk tag as well! Lucky little bugger!
She...
My dad is a nonres and will be 77 this year. He has 8 points for elk. I am looking for ideas on possible units that would be a great experience for him. Hiking is difficult for him, and riding a horse is actually easier, but the last time I took him back in more than 5 miles was pretty hard on...
How did the rifle buck hunt go on the Henry's this year? Did any of you make it down there hunting or helping family and friends on their hunt? I hope everyone had a great hunt!
My 16 year old son has a management buck tag that opens up this Monday. I would love to hear any reports from anyone...
I am wanting to take a couple trips scouting this summer. I like to check out more remote type areas. Remote areas hold more trophy quality imo. I am going to pack a small camp in with my horses. I would like to go before the hunts start so I don't interfere with anyone's hunt. What units and...
My current setup is about 10 years old and it is way past time I upgrade!
Anyone have any that they want to part with? Or where should I be looking to find one? Thanks for your help.
I'm just going through my planning stages for this falls' hunts.
I am looking at New Mexico's draw odds from their website. I started out using some of the statistics that the huntin fool put out, but as I cross- check that with the actual numbers, I'm coming up with different percentages for...
The archery hunt this year was TOUGH!
We scouted 2 days prior to the season and hunted 8 days during the season. The easier access areas were loaded with people so we hunted back in the walk-in areas. We never saw what I would consider a "big" buck. I did not see much rutting activity either...
I need to find my son a left handed bow. I am hoping some of you left handed guys are looking to upgrade and have a good setup for him. He is 17 and the higher poundages are not a concern. Thanks
He currently has a Hoyt super slam. This bow is pushing 20 years old and we need to get him a...
Found this weird buck a couple weeks ago. He is a 13X12. He doesn't score well for those of you who like scores, but he has a lot of character. He looked like a really old deer.
Any of you guys have really weak ankles like me? I swear my ankles are the worst out there. I have to constantly watch myself on my hunts as to not have a sprain ruin my hunt. I curently am using Vasque boots and I still have problems. One other problem is that I tend to have "hot" feet.
I...
What is your oppinion on the changes made to the muzzy hunt this year?
Which units that used to be in the statewide muzzy draw are going to be the most difficult to draw?
I don't know much about the southwestern part of the state, but I bet there are some good units in there that will be hard...
LAST EDITED ON Jan-31-09 AT 09:23AM (MST)[p]My puter crashed again. This is the second time in a couple of months. I had to take it in to get fixed and each time it was about $50. They said I had picked up a virus on both occasions. WTH!!!
Where are the most likely spots that you pick up...
I'll be leaving tomorrow afternoon for New Mexico to hunt oryx on the White Sands MR - Stallion Range.
I'll be taking my two boys (13 and 10 yo). Should be a fun trip.
They have reported a 72% success rate so far this season.
Wish us luck!

I'm getting packed tonight and leaving tomorrow night for NM. My 2 day OIL hunt starts Saturday morning. Only game plan so far is to just use the optics. Hope that's enough!
I'm taking my two boys (13 and 10) with me. Should be a good time!
Wish me luck!

Does anyone have any brainstorms about how to thaw out the water tank in a camp trailer? Is there some sort of heater that I could buy to help with that?
Sageadvice????
Yep, I left the trailer full of water and the cold beat me to it!
Stupid, Stupid, Stupid!!!
Here's some pics from a week ago.
Gettin' some grub!
Cute little guy!
These last two are my favorites:
The lip curl
Chasing a ewe!
Finding these critters was a bonus to our trip. I hope you all enjoy the pics!
Here are some pics I took last weekend of some nice bucks.
These bucks were rutting pretty good as you can see
This was the biggest deer that I got a pic of:
I ran into the Three Amigos on one of our scouting trips. I watched the middle one scratch his head with a hind foot! Pretty handy if you ask me!
These three BOZOS remind me of the Denver Donkeys tonight!
Sorry I'm so late at showing some of these pics off, but I've just barely learned how to do it!
Hope you enjoy!
I have a few more that I'll try to post later. Good luck to all on the deer hunt this year!
My dad has a cow moose permit that he hasn't filled yet. We made one trip early when it was hot and dry and we were unsuccessful.
If anyone has any good tips, let me know. I thought we'd wait until after the first weekend of the deer hunt. So, if anyone sees anything, let me know.
Thanks...
I'm heading up that way in a few weeks for a moose hunt. Do you guys have any suggestions? I can't even remember the name of the one I used back when I lived in Logan.
Looks like someone in my family drew an anterless moose tag (either my mom or dad) for the cache. I hunted this area when I was at school at USU and saw plenty of moose but I haven't been in that area in quite a while. I have a few ideas on where to start looking, but I don't want to post them...
I thought some of you guys would like to see some elk on the Dutton. I took this pic yesterday. Hope you all enjoy! Oh, and PRO - can you see your bull in the pic? He's in the middle!
I talked to a fellow that said his credit card had already been hit for the Utah Draw a few days ago? Usually I see stuff all over this website talking about it. I'm calling BS on this one!
I would think that the end of next week sounds more like the time to watch. What do you all think of this?
Is there a way to put in for a point for the general area tags? Or do have to put in and hope I don't draw this year? I would like to try to do a DIY elk and deer trip in '09, but this year would be too soon. Any ideas?
I have a simple question.
If I want to put in for a moose point, do I do it now or wait until this summer? I know you put in later this year for deer, elk, and antelope points, but what about moose?
thanks in advance for your help,
Old Jake
Which ones are you guys's favorites?
Any show deer from Utah like the pauns and henries?
Any out there of deer from last year? (2007)
I'm going to get a couple and wanted to see what you guys liked.
Thanks
OldJake
I put my boys and I in for Javelina last year and we drew. So far during my research it looks as though it will be a tough hunt. Everyone that I have talked to says we drew the worst tag! It was JAV-1-100 and runs from 1/15 thru 3/31 '08. Everyone has said the Burro Mtns are the best but...
