Wyoming general region A or Y
Man, knowing you just are looking for a respectable muley, I would look at unit specific data in the harvest reports from last year and just go to where you see the higher success rates and higher numbers of bucks harvested, while also knowing not to look at those far NE units that have a lot of... -
Region B or Specific Unit Question
Great point. Defintiely have to read each rules. But there are also HMA's and WHMA's to check out on the Wyoming Game and Fish website. It's a great resource. -
Region B or Specific Unit Question
If you have the time to go check it out, I would go Region B for sure. Spend a lot of time on OnX finding access and habitat that looks good. Tons of Walk In Areas in that part of the state. Spend time here if you choose to go! https://wgfd.wyo.gov/Public-Access/Walk-In-Hunting -
Boot Comparison Spreadsheet: Thoughts?
Blemished stuff is always such a good deal, in my opinion! It usually has a blemish after the first trip to the mountain, so I figure why not get someone to put the first scratch in it for me. Lol.- Heyjbales

Boot Comparison Spreadsheet: Thoughts?
10000% agree with you hear! The spreadsheet omitted it for that exact sticky reason. I personally would never buy a boot unless I could put it on and walk around for a good amount of time. I wish more boot companies would post their lasts in mm on their sites. I could hardly find any, but I see...- Heyjbales

Boot Comparison Spreadsheet: Thoughts?
Yeah I was d I was debating how to classify it since it looked more synthetic than the Kenetrek or Schnee's, but obviously has the leather lowers and clearly isn't a full synthetic like the Sportiva. Have you had any experience with that bad boy?- Heyjbales

Boot Comparison Spreadsheet: Thoughts?
Thanks to all y'all for chiming in. This was super helpful. I probably should of mentioned my main goal with this comparison. I am hoping to use this to parse out one fairly stiff shanked waterproof boot that's a workhorse for everything from drift busting snow on Spring bear hunts to packing...- Heyjbales

Boot Comparison Spreadsheet: Thoughts?
I like the sounds of this. I should definitely do that instead of my stiffness rating to make it more data driven. Those other two are great data points, as well. I'd imagine the website of these boots should have all that you mentioned, so I'll add to my spreadsheet here in a bit.- Heyjbales

Boot Comparison Spreadsheet: Thoughts?
Sorry man. It's just a screenshot of some good mountain/hunting boots with different weights, flexes, material makeup and price points. Defintely not a perfect comparison of boots, but that's why I posted it so I could get some input on my gaps.- Heyjbales

Boot Comparison Spreadsheet: Thoughts?
All good info fellas! I had forgotten about Zamberlan. Do you think their 1996 Vioz Lux is kinda their flagship model for these styles of boots? If so, any idea on flex rating? As for the Crispis, that must be why I was able to blow them out so fast. Haha. Had no idea they didn't make all...- Heyjbales

Boot Comparison Spreadsheet: Thoughts?
Shoot! I know they're married to Fjallraven and if they're similar in quality as a brand, I'd imagine they're dang good boots! I'll go find a comparable model now. And yeah, fit is so dang important but tough to compare since each guy's foot is different with different stress tolerances. Just...- Heyjbales

Boot Comparison Spreadsheet: Thoughts?
After being a fly on the wall for a ton of conversations about gear, I been comparing some different stuff just with data to help filter through brand opinions. I've had my hands on most of these and feet in 2 of them and am kinda just able to put together specs from their website. Clearly...- Heyjbales

Bow Sling
I really dig my Solo Hntr sling for packing my bow. The neoprene cover keeps my cam and string from getting tangled up or collecting debris when beating brush, but is quick to take off once you get into your zone where you might be needing to use your bow. It's on sale right now, too so check it... -
FNG from NE OR
A little village outside of La Grande called Imbler. Where's the good fishing around Laramie? We visited a couple weeks ago and sounded like folks did a bunch of ice fishing out there, which sounds like a good way to down some brewskis when the weather get's frigid. :P Thanks for the welcomes! -
FNG from NE OR
Howdy All. I'm a farm kid from NE Oregon, but now have found myself driving a desk in Bend, OR. Luckily, I am moving to Laramie, WY come August. I know it's conveniently when I need to be scouting archery mule deer, but am still excited to check out a new state. Popped on here to find more...
