Hey Falcon, I have lots of experience with hunting daughters. Mine are grown and married now and one is expecting her first child in Sept. - With that said my vote is to take your daughter on any hunt or for that matter any vacation that you can while you can and as soon as you can. Time goes by...
yep, looking at easier terrain for the wife and one daughter. They also will be satisfied with a mediocre 4 pt. We can camp in our camper or hard sided fishshack. Although the youngest daughter would love hotel lodging on a hunt, thats not necessary. Thanks for the replies guys!
Yep, that's what I usually do. The girls get tags in WY and SD and occasionally other states and I just go along. We don't have to burn all 11 points, if I find a good enough area that I like that is a 5 point unit I'm ok with that too, wasting a few points isn't a big deal. Lots of research...
My personal theory is that we aren't getting any younger and wyoming keeps requiring us to buy points or loose them while raising tag prices and cutting tags. It's time for me to go enjoy a hunt and get out of their game. I also think all of us waiting for populations to come back is going to...
If I could leave my WY points sit and use them in 5-8 years I might just do that Buzz buy WY has such a greedy system of making us buy more points every two years so many people like myself just buy them so that we don't lose our previous crappy investments.
oh ya, we do that often. Last year I did an elk hunt with both of them. It didn't turn out well, we learned the one daughters limitations and only scouted two days and hunted one day but we still had a memorable trip together. The good thing is daughter 1 will go along when daughter 2 has a tag...
Probably a not so common "problem". Yes, I know I shouldn't have accrued so many points and gotten into what many call "no-man's land". Here's the deal, 4 of us have 11 points each for WY deer. Wife and one daughter want nothing to do with a high country excruciating deer hunt. They love...
As Larry Potterfield says,...Only accurate rifles are interesting. I wouldn't care what it looked like, give me the one you think will be the most accurate out of the gate. I bought a pretty high priced stock gun thinking it would be more accurate. It was not. A chit ton of ammo later and a...
I'm wondering if anyone has any links to free satellite images that are fairly current or even live? I'd like to be able to look at images of lakes in the upper midwest to see amounts of ice vs. open water. Thanks for any help!
Rich guy buys a crap-ton of raffle tickets and gets a tag everyone would love to have. Good for him, someone was gonna get it. If you don't like it get the system changed so each person can only buy one tag and raise less money. I have no doubt he can fill tags on OTC units WAY better than most...
A very good friend and I decided to finally attempt archery elk hunting 10-12 years ago. Both rookies so we both wanted the shot of course. Each year we learned more. I had a couple of opportunities and missed a cow and a bull over the first 4 years. I also learned a lot about my friend. I...
Ive always dreamed of doing this in the Amazon. May have to settle for FL also. Can some of you guys expand on general types of fishing techniques? Topwater, live bait, jerkbaits, spinnerbaits, wacky wormn? And what months to go?
Thankful for this place that has helped me make some wonderful new friends over the years that I've been fortunate enough to share camps and meals with. God bless you all !
