    WY Price Hike Implications

    I hope you’re right. My strategy next year includes trying for a pronghorn tag in the special with no points if my earlier applications aren’t successful.

    WY Price Hike Implications

    $1700 seems like an absolute bargain compared to what is costs me very year :). But seriously I think many people treat hunting the west as a vacation like I do and assuming you plan to have a few weeks vacation a year the costs are budgeted annually on that basis.

    Idaho 2024- start %itching now

    It took all my will power but I resisted the temptation to buy an ID tag! Might apply in the controlled draw depending on how my other applications go. Good luck to all those that have a tag in their pocket.

    WY Price Hike Implications

    I am hopeless at making predictions on draw odds, so wont even try! But I do suspect there will be people like me that will scrape the money together and roll the dice in the special. I only hunt the west once a year and if I got a great tag in the special, due to a decent improvement in the...

    Idaho 2024- start %itching now

    Think youre right about no mans land with 4 or 5. It even took 4.5 points to be get 100% odds for WY elk tag in the standard preference point draw.

    Best Bang For The $ Hunt Of A Lifetime?

    Flights have been expensive since COVID but dropping slowly now with more airlines flying US - NZ. So maybe $US1500 depending on the normal variables. Car rental around the same as US.

    WY Deer?

    I’m not super experienced in WY but have hunted western WY a few times including this year with an H tag holder. We only saw a few smaller bucks and doe’s and noticeably less animals than in the past. I bet there are big bucks still around but seems like they’ll be hard to find.

    Rugby World Cup???

    The South Africa vs France was a great game to watch. The All Blacks vs Ireland was also great but a bit stressful! Hopping for SA vs NZ final.

    Artificial European Skulls

    For my Wyoming trip this year I ended up bringing my elk antlers and pronghorn sheaths back with me as checked in luggage. Was very easy and cost effective. Now I am looking to use a artificial european skulls to mount the antlers and sheaths. I see them for sale (Van Dykes for example) but...

    Quitters

    I quit an CO early season high country deer tag a couple of years ago. The altitude got to me and I didn't allow enough time to acclimatize, a lesson I have learnt. My buddy told me I needed to head to lower country and fortunately he didn't really give me a choice, not sure what would have...

    New Zealand Hunting Invasive Species

    I showed my work colleague my pronghorn I shot in WY last week. The response was ‘are they a pest’. Pretty much highlights the difference between the New Zealand and North American wild life management.

    Nice beer! Altitude bar is a favourite of mine and a short roll down the hill from my place.
