Considering using my 5 points for a muzzy deer tag this year. Opportunity to find 160”+ bucks is my goal. Seems like I’m about to be in the spot where I’ve got more points than I need for a the easy tags and not nearly enough for the better tags. I see I’m a couple years away from 76 or 66...
I've been in the Florida?s a few times over the years and been able to go along on a hunt. Every time I've been there I've seen broken horn billies. Why isn't there a broken horn ibex hunt? Seems like guys with a once in a lifetime or even a muzzy tag are unlikely to want to shoot a billy with...
Posted him in the AZ forum but figured I'd post here also. Can't say enough how fortunate I felt to draw this tag and then take this ram. Being a wilderness area it was a lot of hard miles. Was everything you could hope for. Thanks to Chase for all the great pics.
Thought I'd share a few pics of my sheep hunt. I was fortunate enough to have a couple great friends along to help and provide info from last year. Even more fortunate to shoot a nice ram and get great pics and video of it all. Nothing wrong with going guided but I enjoyed doing it on our own...
Got a great surprise this morning. Checked "the card" and after years of waiting there's a charge for sheep! Could be the wife,daughter,or myself but somebody in our house has a desert bighorn tag. Will be a long wait for results to come out and see who drew and which unit. Wife and I both have...
Got hit for a sheep tag this morning. Now the long wait to see if it's the wife,daughter,or myself and which unit. Desert tag for sure but we applied for a few different units based on points and available time.
Looking for info on areas to try crane hunting in southeast New Mexico. We'll be hunting sheep in unit 30 and thought we might come over a few days early and bring our crane decoys. I've seen a lot around Artesia in the past. Any idea how difficult it is getting permission in that area from...
Looking for some suggestions. I'm starting to research where and when to do a DIY hunt for Columbian blacktail. I've been lucky enough to take the rest of the deer slam on DIY hunts and I'd like to try and finish it in the next year or 2. Outfitted/ranch hunts are out due to cost (5 kids and a...
It doesn't get any easier to send letters to your representatives about keeping your gun rights than this. Took me 3 minutes to fill in my info and it emailed the letter for me. Almost a million people have done it already.

Whats going on with the youth cow tags? I saw that they were going to sell the youth encouragement tags to nonresidents and now they suspended sales. My understanding was that nonresidents couldn't get cow tags anymore. Regulations don't even show an antlerless tag for nonresidents under the fee...
Hey guys I'm looking at a couple landowner deer tags in 143-145. Which time frame would you buy if you had the option of the muzzleloader season or the plains rifle? With access to a some private land and hunting the public ground also what would you expect for buck size? Thanks

Got home from 7 days of sheep hunting and when my 2 year old sees me he starts running around the house shouting AWESOME. Doesn't get much better than that. Love going hunting but getting home can be great too.
Can't wait for sheep season to get here. Don't think I'll get to hunt the opener since it's mid week. Maybe not til I can hunt a full week. Anybody gonna be out on the opener?
Wondering if anyone knows of an attachment to video through a spotting scope. I have a canon vixia with a 58mm thread at the lens and a swarovski ats 65. Looking for something to buy or build. Thx
Here are a few pics from this season. Something to look at while we wait on the draw results. I'm lucky enough to get to hunt with my nephews all the time so I get out on quite a few hunts. All public land diy. Some from New Mexico and some in AZ. Post up some of your season.
I know theres a hunt swap page but I thought I might have better luck here. Sitka blacktails are something I've wanted to hunt for a while and just wondering if anybody would be interested in a swap for a coues hunt in AZ. Its all public land here and the units we hunt are 100% draw. I'm not a...
Anybody else watch the King's ranch javelina hunt on Modern Rifle Adventures? ##### Metcalf shoots a javelina then explains that he's allowed 2 javelina in Texas. He then proceeds to take a unethical shot at a javelina in the front of a herd. As you would expect he passes through and hits...
Here a couple more pictures of my nephew Dylans antelope.Every year I try to take my kids and my nephews and neices hunting as much as possible. The opportunity to take them on some great youth hunts is something that my wife and I feel should be taken advantage of. Some of these tags are all...
Some of the other successful hunts the boys had this fall.Dylans first coues.
Brandons second coues. 3 brothers.
Brandons public land New Mexico muzzleloader antelope.
Big brothers muzzleloader coues.
Brandon shot his first cow elk this fall too but i cant get that pic to download for some...
Took the boys out today and Dylan got his first javelina. Chase was busy working so no video. Taking Brandon out in the morning and see if we can get him one. Chase is coming along so we might have another junior javelina video.
I just got my "gift" for renewing my NRA membership. It's a knife with the blade boldly stamped CHINA! Having a real hard time with the fact that the NRA doesnt support and promote American jobs. OUtsourcing for a cheaper product just makes the NRA look cheap. Does this disgust anybody else?
I'm looking for some ideas on which units produce decent moose with at least a reasonable chance at drawing a tag. Mainly looking for a rifle or muzzleloader hunt but would consider an archery hunt. Don't have any experience hunting Idaho or moose. Heard that moose tags draw odds are decent and...
These are 4 of 5 bucks we took on muzzleloader hunt this year. I'm not real fast at anything with these computers! Wifes buck is 16 2/8 long and right at 83".Its my nephews first antelope.g[/IMG]IMG]
