I have harvested pronghorn in OR, WY, MT, NM, UT, NV and TX. I have enough points in AZ and CO to get a tag for a pronghorn buck there when the itch needs scratched.
NM was the most challenging place to hunt pronghorn due to the relatively short season. WY was, until a few years back, the...
I recall a few years back one of the guys on here was packing up his truck and trailer to head out before sunrise on a big hunt but decided to check the straps on the trailer one last time and as went to jump down to the ground his hunt ended before he got out of the driveway. Sorry this...
Below is concerning recreational use.
A bit of wine has been shown in medical studies to be a plus for non-alcoholics and those without compromised livers and kidneys. I recall red wine had a stronger positive correlation than white wine. Someone early in the thread mentioned they could not...
I enjoyed the write up and it reminds me that I have often woken up in a dark tent, usually on a solo hunt, to get moving so am in position when the first light begins painting the sky. Those first rays of light are when I try take a few seconds to admire the moment knowing the unfolding sunrise...
I like this and am a NR for the next 4 years. The "land rush" rewarding those with idle time and a fast internet connection is asinine. Hold a real draw. Points are at risk.
I have tucked my tail and headed home with tag soup and days left on the tag. I recall the MT mountain goat tag in 2020, WA archery elk tag in 2010ish and a NM Coues buck tag in 2008ish. All were solo hunts.
My body gave out in MT on what ended up being the first trip then returned to see...
I have. Parking is quite a bit, up to $100 and I did not type that incorrectly. Smart fans that typically do not boo a good though inconvenient call by the referees. If you are not wearing SeaHawk colors then you are better off not entering the stadium or nearby sports bars. That is my advice...
My mother ate horse she would buy from the butcher when was living in West Germany in the early 1950s. I will not be asking her if she also ate ass. First rule of being a kid is to not ask your parent a question for which you do not want to hear each of the possible responses.
I have no issue with encountering critters in places which they are expected to appear such as along the hiking trail. Snake? Hello, don't mind me as I veer out of the way to go around on my hike. Spiders. Scorpions. Squirrels. Bears. Good afternoon, I am not here to bother you. But, I do not...
Largest bull elk and largest Coues buck is the goal. Time will tell. Both hunts have that potential though I have not been very picky in the past. This year....I am letting the darkness out...
If you are Joe SixPack and want to hunt a Bighorn Ram then you can spend around $2,000 a year on applications plus the co-requisite hunting licenses, etc, to get a few balls in a handful of state sheep draws though your odds will be 1 in 1000 cumulatively in Year One and not improve much the...

Retire on Friday. Die next week. The Morley Safer Bucket List had one item left: Retire.
Big Fin - Agreed re Eva. Anyone making a name in the hunting industry as a female has far too many hurdles to overcome compared to the men. I do not recall anyone commenting on Jim Zumbo's physique. No one man-splained over Zumbo at a trade show when he would discuss his preference for a cow elk...
Your body lets you know when you are hydrated at altitude. You will need to urinate ever 20 minutes with the urine nearly clear. I hydrate all day then cut back so can sleep a bit overnight but keep a gallon ziploc in my sleeping bag so can take a whiz without having to deal with dressing...
I have so little faith that F&G cares about non-landowners. Non-residents are further down the list of gives a whit other than when is time to get more revenues for the budget. Guides and outfitters are favored sons as well. If someone shows you who there are, you should pay attention. WY is for...
Age discrimination is inherent in every preference point system resulting in the Max Point class gifted with unearned out-sized odds over subsequent participants prevented by law from earning points in Year One of the system due to age or not even being born.
Those out-sized odds continue year...
