I've had some excellent help from hunttalkers over the last few years and try to limit my requests to help as I dont want to out stay my welcome! But if someone would be able to help with my sons AZ application that would be greatly appreciated. I've been to all western states except AZ and NM...
I'm 53 and no plans to retire. For the last 13 years I have 'slowed down' and worked 3 - 4 days a week in a normal office job, with 6-8 weeks holiday per year. So will keep working as long as I can but continue to make time to hunt or fish weekly and also do big regular longer trips.
Elk unit 80 (EE080O1A) is a now a draw unit for archery. This years non resident draw odds were 100% for 0 points.

I signed up to a half Ironman today, so my goal is to not get injured before the event (9 Dec 23) and enjoy the 'race'! I'm building a base by swimming 1.5 hrs, biking 3 hrs and running 3 hrs a week until I head over to WY Sept 23. Then plan to increase this training Oct - Nov to get race...
Logistics is a lot of work for sure. I spent many hours getting a plan together and it has worked out for me. My son and I have two WY tags in the same area and same season (gen elk and buck pronghorn). Got great flights to Jackson Hole and have hired a TURO truck that will get us into our...
I ran a 5km race today at Long Beach, California. Really enjoyed the race and meeting the other runners. Been a while since I’ve raced 5kms and actually forgot what a great distance it is to run. Next up it’s a 10km race on Saturday in Cerritos.
Interesting question. I’m no expect but believe you’ll either need to hire a professional outfitter or have a resident take you as a ‘guide’. There’s no cost for the resident option but believe they need to sign up at WY Fish and Game.
Well my planned trip just got way better. I drew a WY antelope tag! In my view, my son and I now have the dream combo of WY elk and antelope tags. Cant wait to spend two weeks in western WY this fall with these tags.
I drew an antelope tag! Had 7 points so was confident that I would draw but always nice to see Successful result. Wasn't sure about applying with the bad winter but the area I applied actually had an increase in tag numbers.
With my son drawing a elk tag we now have the prefect WY combo in my...
Thanks for all the advice. I probably wont make it to Yellowstone, or any national parks, as I normally hunt every day on my western hunt trips. I'm happy hunting 12 days straight.
