I am ok with them combining deer points, but only if they do basically the same with elk. Put the spike and any bull hunts into the draw. Wouldn't be fair to people with deer points to make them burn a bunch of points to hunt a general hunt. While allowing people in the elk pool to continue...

If we are going combine the deer hunt structures and basically eliminate general season. We need to do the same with elk at the same time. No building points and spike or anybull hunting at the same time.

Scroll to the side. 17 bonus points, 1 loyalty and 1 hunter Ed? Atleast that's the way mine reads

There was more like 1300 with 19+ NR points. That is why I applied for 12A West early. There were 15 people in just the 12AWest early hunt alone with more than 19. So maybe it will go faster than i figured

Did you draw?

I know I didn't draw with 19 NR points. I do know 2 people that did draw with 19.

I applied for the same hunts with 19. Still no charges.

Nothing yet for me. In with 19 NR points for 12A West early. I was pretty confident I would draw. Starting to get nervous now.

I have a 6.5x280ai. I neck down factory Nosler 280ai brass. I ordered a set of custom dies from Hornady. I have no problems with reloading. Shooting 3150 with 150 Bergers. 27" barrel

We also spent 5 days in 11/211. Saw plenty of deer, but no quality bucks. We had a spot that was out of the way about 30 does and 7-8 bucks. Watched it daily. Not much rut. Best buck was maybe 150". Warden told us 11 is their sacrificial lamb. Need places for the youth and elderly to shoot...

My 14 yr old daughter will be shooting my wife's LE bull here in UT via the mentoring program. I am trying to decide which gun/load to have her use. 6.5x284 using a 130gr accubond, or 6.5x280ai using a 140gr Berger. Both loads are very accurate. The best I have found with each gun.

LAST EDITED ON May-29-17 AT 07:16PM (MST)[p]I don't think UT averages preference points in the general season draw. They do average bonus points for the Limited entry draw. You would have went in the draw with the lowest individual point total.

My dad went to the bank and took a loan out to buy my 2 brothers, my brother in law and me one. We are in the 4040+.

Does UT still have a 5 round magazine capacity for rifles during the deer hunt. My primary magazine is only 4 rounds. But, I have a 10 round I would like to pack my extra shells in.

Creep is still happening. We didn't draw G with 5 in the regular draw

LAST EDITED ON Feb-21-16 AT 01:32PM (MST)[p]LAST EDITED ON Feb-21-16 AT 01:32?PM (MST) I bought a couple B&C Medalist Alaskan II stocks from Redhawk Rifles in Colorado. A little lighter and cheaper than HS Precision. I am happy with them. Redhawk rifles had the best price I could find.

Huntin Fool states that you now have the option to buy a "point guard" option for $5. The point guard allows you to return your tag within 24 hours of the start of a hunt and regain all bonus points plus the one for that year, you forfeit all tags fees. You can only use this option 1 time per...

LAST EDITED ON Jan-21-16 AT 04:45PM (MST)[p]I bought the 15Xs in the add. Offered to pay $40 for the Paypal fees. The seller had no problem using paypal gifts and services. Awesome pair of binoculars for under $1300 delivered.

MI Hunter, Personally I would not burn max points on Unit 7 again. The public land access is just too limited for my liking. I think you could have a good hunt if you can gain access to some private land.

The trip started out great. We watched my son's football team win the UT 2A State football championship. GO BEAVER. The 1st morning there we saw 9 bulls, all small 4 and 5 points. Didn't see anything the rest of the day. 2nd morning hiked up into a new spot. We saw a herd of 30 with just...

I am glad you guys talked me into going ack to WY to hunt elk. The weather sucked. Does the wind ever stop blowing? It was all worth it when I was able to spot this bull. He is not a giant by any means, but the best we saw.

LAST EDITED ON Nov-10-15 AT 02:32PM (MST)[p]Looking for a little advice here. We have 3 unit 7 elk tags. We spent a week in mid September archery hunting. We had a good time, were close on several occasions. Just couldn't quite get it done. I personally had 3 340 plus bulls within 50 yards...

LAST EDITED ON Oct-30-15 AT 12:28PM (MST)[p]I am ready to start a custom rifle build. It will be a lighter weight rifle for deer 95% of the time. 24 inch barrel. I had my heart set on a 6.5x06ai. I think it would be an awesome deer round. I have a 6.5 1 in 8 1/2 twist barrel on order from...

I had a bow emergency on Saturday. I needed a new string. Lbor day weekend is tough. I ended up calling Impact archery in Las Vegas. They were awesome. It was a 3 hour drive, but 2 hours after getting there they had made me a new string, and tuned my bow up. All for under $50. Great...

Look around WECCO.

I would also add increased predator control, (coyote Bounty) has had an impact .

We drew a permission slip to hunt elk on the Duncan Ranch in Unit 7. There are 75 slips given out. I can't find much info on the ranch. How is the hunting during mid Sept?

RE: what is the best bullet for big bull elk? Unless you are hunting CO, ID, or any state that prohibits sabots. Go to any decent sporting good store and buy some Barnes TMZ, or TEZ bullets. In 250gr and 290gr. I have killed bulls with both. Whichever one is more accurate in your gun shoot...

I have used a Knight Super DISC .45 for the last 15 years. I have also wondered why .45 have not taken off. The biggest downfall to shooting a 45 is bullet selection. I shoot Precision Rifles Deadcenters. They are extremely accurate. I see Parker is making a 45 caliber conical now. It...

I filled my bench bags with my used cob media out of my tumbler.

I bought my daughter a Remington 700 243. I chose to go with the regular sps with a 24" barrel. Then called Remington and ordered a youth stock for about $90. Now that she is older we put the regular size stock back on and the youth stock will go on her younger sisters new 700.

I have listened to a couple of Jay's podcast. All have been informative. I especially liked last weeks, that talked about the strip.

Huntin50, I agree. We have had about 4 inches of rain in Minersville (Southwest Desert) in the last 3 weeks. More scheduled off and on for the next 5 days. If the division is going to try and cut the elk herd in half, I hope the cattlemen follow suit and only run half of their cattle on the...

I think it is about time we as sportsman ban together and buy up the grazing rights on our good elk units. The BLM should put AUMs up for auction. Some are worth a lot more than the cattlemen are paying.

My dad drew a 21 muzz tag, and my son drew a 21 late rifle tag. I am really having a hard time finding any information on this unit. There seems to be very little info on elk. any help would be appreciated. thanks
