Wyoming- Whats the difference in definition between antlerless elk and cow or calf?
Wyoming Antlerless elk hunts burn points and cost the same as an any elk tag. Cow calf elk tags cost less and don't burn points. Whats the difference between the two? -
This Should Be Interesting
I post this with some apprehension, but at least I get to control what I post here. Thanks for that Randy. Hind sight is 20-20. I am sorry to say that in my opinion, though Randy most likely provided some more worthwhile content, the show would have been better off without the Solving middle...- Goatshoes

Need some Wyoming elk hunt planning help
Does Wyoming publish elk population information by unit, and if so where can I find it? I'd like to know what a units elk population is and how it compares to the units population objective if that's available. Thanks, Steve -
Blaze Orange vs. Camo
No 12 abreast here and I've never seen a pheasant in the wild. Mostly valley quail and chukar in some tricky landscapes where you would be foolish to hunt alone. Chukar hunting is rough country. -
Blaze Orange vs. Camo
I haven't noticed any mention of wearing while upland bird hunting. That can be the most important time to wear it all the players in the field changing their positions frequently it sure helps avoid an accident. I wear it for everything except archery and duck hunting. -
Colorado fee changes - Pref Point Increase + $100 NR Bear Tags
I don't know which of your pooches they screwed (I hope it is recovering well) but I say it was smart forward thinking. They got a bunch of first timers invested in points and now they bump the price. Sounds like they learned a little from all their marijuana dealers. Haha. -
Greetings from Commiefornia!
Your not too far from the Pacific but if spearing doesn't suit you you may want to familiarize your self with San Jacinto Wildlife Area for some duck hunting. Its less than 30 minutes from March ARB (On the East Side of Lake Perris). I wish I could recommend something better, but where you... -
Greetings from Commiefornia!
Based on where your located, I would recommend that if you are looking for local hunting opportunities that you moth ball the firearm and take a short walk South West into the Pacific with a speargun. MUCH more opportunity and MUCH closer. -
Tight Spot Secondary Gripper
I use the tight spot and rage hypos and never had an issue with rattling or premature expansion. That may answer the question as to why not stock equipment. Glad you found a solution though and thanks for sharing. Good to know in case it becomes an issue. -
Swimming with a Labrador
My guess is that he isn't saving you so much as he was retrieving you, because everything that you have ever put into the pond was brought back to shore. He'll get over it and figure it out. In the mean time just don't let him swim with kids that can't handle him.- Goatshoes

Water proofing boots
Good points about using what the boot maker recommends but my boots were purchased about 20 years ago and are the Cabela's brand (Impressive how well they have held up). If it were recent I could probably find out who makes their boots but I think to much time has passed.- Goatshoes

Water proofing boots
Thanks for the recommendation. Looks like a high quality product, but the video I watched sells that it smells amazing. Is it a natural smell? Does it dissipate quickly?- Goatshoes

Water proofing boots
I intend to apply a waterproofing product to my leather boots for the first time. I imagine that they all probably have some odor to them that could be off-putting to game. Are there any products out there that I should avoid or that you recommend? Thanks- Goatshoes

Cow vs Rut Bull Elk - A question of challenge
Thanks for your input. I bet you still had a hell of a time. -
Ca Pronghorn!
Super smart move. I think antelope taste is more sensitive to heat than any other venison. You should have some fantastic eating there. Congratulations. -
Cow vs Rut Bull Elk - A question of challenge
I am trying to compare a non-rut cow hunt to a rut bull hunt. I made my first cow hunt this year with archery gear during late August and it just crossed my mind that considering the differences between the two hunts, a cow hunt may have the same level of difficulty, though different, as a rut... -
Cow vs Rut Bull Elk - A question of challenge
For those who have hunted both with the same weapon. Aside from drawing the tag, is taking a bull during the rut anymore difficult than taking a cow elk? On the one hand the cow elk hunter is probably dealing with a lot more ears, noses and eyes than the bull hunter (I suspect) and the rut... -
Quivalizer...dumb gadget or functional tool?
Sure. I have tried stabilizers at the range and have seen no change in my performance. I gave mine away. I have watched many others at the range using stabilizers who shoot no better than I do (I don't claim to be better than the average guy). I think that a lot of archers buy a lot of... -
Grizzly - How close is too close ?
A study led by BYU biologist and bear expert Tom S. Smith found that firing a gun is no more effective in keeping people from injury or death during bear attacks than not using a firearm. "People should consider carrying a non-lethal deterrent such as bear spray," said Smith, a gun owner... -
Quivalizer...dumb gadget or functional tool?
I think the whole concept of a stabilizer is ridiculous for use beyond the field of competitive target archery. My apologies in advance to all you emotionally sensitive archers sporting stabilizers who will be offended by this comment.
