One call for deer and once call for elk for me. I also answered questions for my son about deer.
It's ridiculous that they call once for each species, especially when it is months later as was the case for elk for me this year (I don't hunt the shoulder season). I know the reason they call...
All of this is just overly complicated. It needs to be simplified. All these special programs need to go away. Make it simple.
I read the regs and pay attention as much as I can and things still surprise me. Among my group of friends I am always the one that has to explain the regulations...
So you are telling me that Block Management areas get a free either sex tag for elk or deer? What about when they are in permit areas?
I hunted a block management area in the Elkhorns this year that was also a bulls for billionaires participant. So they gave me access to land that I...
Just noticed today that the tooth analysis on my goat was entered into FWP. They analyzed it as 11 years old, which is the same age I get when I count the rings. Haven't received anything from them, not sure they will send anything or not, but it shows up on MyFWP in the tooth analysis...

I will be curious to get the results back on the teeth for the age. Supposed to get them back by May.
After a season chasing elk in this district here is my evaluation of it:
This is a fantastic district if you are looking for a decent 6 point that you won't necessarily have to pack in...
So then the work started. I started working on getting him broke down. Truck was about a mile off so my plan was to mostly quarter this one. Usually I don't like to pack out bones but this wouldn't be too bad. After working on him a while I decided to get one of the back legs out with my...
I sent out my Garmin Mini report to some friends and family and got ready to start the long day of breaking down and getting this animal back home. I tell people all the time that any serious hunter should break down and pack out an elk by himself at least once. You don't realize how much work...
