Weds night we were beat after another long day of hiking. Simple supper, and then a plan to sleep in. With some much needed rest, and a hearty meal of camp breakfast burritos, courtesy of Nate, we drove back to my unit. We were cautiously optimistic to fill both my tags on the last 1/2 day of...
I foolishly took my eyes off the herd and it took us several hours to relocate them. Getting ready to put on a stalk!
Sun shining, wind died down - back to “base layer” hunting.
Bucks spotted, uwah ha ha! Still snowing and foggy but I got up high to glass, and found them headed into our unit. Time to put a plan together.
Here’s Nate hoping to intercept them this AM - animals decided to move up the next valley over.
With the storm rolling in Monday night we packed up camp and headed to Nate’s unit. Got to bed late and slept hard, and woke up to a blanket of wet snow this morning.
The first half of the day we spent scouting, checking off wet/impassible roads and making notes of where to glass once the fog...
Waited an hour, but antelope never crossed back to public. We did a ton more hiking, but pretty uneventful. 20 antelope in an island of private…if they move they cross on public and are fair game. We guess where they will cross and drive a huge loop around to intercept them. They ended up...
Sun AM no alarm set, so we can catch up on sleep. I got up before sunrise to catch a little walk.
I got several panorama photos that are better, but the file size is too large to upload.
Sun AM slow start as planned. About 9 AM we leave camp to try and relocate the group of animals from the...
Friday afternoon, drive up to my folks place to visit with them and my sister, and then crash for the night.
Sat I’m up an hour early at 3 AM like a kid on Christmas morning, and can’t get back to sleep. Make the short drive to Nate’s to load up his gear in the dark. I’m greeted by his wife...
Wy, mt, Co, NE, sd, and if you’ve got a little extra pocket change, ID. If you are willing to hunt females, archery, and tough public access, you can realistically hunt 3+ tags every year. Shelling out more $ opens up much more quality annual hunts (WY, NV, NM, NE, CO), but costs rack up...
Heading to WY and MT with @Bowmannate2000 in a few days to catch the tail end of the antelope season. Four units, three weapons, and hopefully a big cooler full of meat here soon!
I consider GoHunt to be THE most important factor in my ability to draw tags. Year after year it continues proves its value to me.
I have never purchased, owned, or even seen the app.
However, I watched Randy’s YT videos on how the app works. As @Khunter alluded to, the GH presentation format...
