    Saw this pretty bull last summer. Would love to turn him up again this year and see his growth.

    Yikes! I didn’t realize how often that happens until we were running to make our ferry just in time. Hope the weather improves enough soon to make it home.

    No, we were in the mountains northwest of the lodge; maybe an hour away. We did take the ladies to the property adjacent and they loved it.

    After seeing the beautiful country it was time for some hunting. I have always loved the way red stags crown at the top of their antlers. They have always seemed so regal to me, although I may need to attribute that to my wife’s love of Victorian English movies. Honestly, seeing some red stags...

    It is perhaps self apparent, but still deserves mentioning, that New Zealand hunting typically consists of estate hunting parcels with high fences. There is some incredible free range hunting there, though the caliber of animals differs. I knew that going into this hunt and accepted it. I found...

    Salt Lake City, Charleston, and D.C. without protestors come to mind. Honolulu is great but most everything is great when in Hawaii.

    Be honest about your Wyoming elk app!

    5 points regular general. Based on the results in this thread, I’m predicting that the price increase for special does not increase the draw odds one bit from what they have been the last couple years, with an error rate of 5-7%.
