    Chinese surveillance balloon over Montana?

    I imagine a glorious 2 minute charge before we all pulled a hamstring. This also loosely describes how I ended up with a child.

    Chinese surveillance balloon over Montana?

    The balloon makes total sense for these uses in a place where the locals have limited ability to detect or do anything about the balloon (e.g., Afghanistan). Doesn’t it seem odd to purposely send conspicuous surveillance equipment to the US and expect it to perform without detection or...

    Chinese surveillance balloon over Montana?

    I have a hard time believing any first-world military is spying with balloons in 2023. This was probably a Chinese fourth grader’s science project.

    Wyoming Unit 7

    I’ve drawn 7-4 in the leftover draw before (2022). You can buy them as leftovers after the second draw if they’re not drawn out. 7-6 has been all gone after the second draw in recent years.

    They don’t, but I knew he wouldn’t want to hear it from me.

    I said the type 4 is guaranteed in the leftover draw. Explain how you’d burn your points in the leftover draw. Whatever man. You clearly have it dialed in and no one is changing anyones mind here.

    The type 4 has been guaranteed in the leftover draw forever. We can agree to disagree.

    OTC cow tags will only increase road traffic, and a few more people will be complaining on Facebook and posting pictures of private cows they saw from the road. Same number of cows will die.

    Wyoming Unit 7

    I’ve killed 8 cows in 8 years in area 7, averaging 1-3 days of hunting per year on public land. People simply will not walk for cows in that unit. It’s windy, cold, and there are plenty of roads to drive and hope for low hanging fruit that most never find. I have no clue how going general for...

    What's yer total?

    Shot a bunch of stuff since i started in 2000. Aside from antlers and turkey spurs, the closest thing I have is a mason jar with all my elk ivories. I’ve shot an elk every year since I moved out west (8), and I hope to need a second jar before I give up.

    There’s no general season in 7 for youth or adult. This information is readily available. No need to rely on “I do believe…”.

    This isn’t true. In 2021, a youth could shoot any elk on 7-2. This was removed for 2022

    Wildife Task force 90-10, etc.

    If area quota = 40 NR total = 4 NR w pp = 3 NR random = 1 If that math is correct, 40 would be minimum quota. My assumption is your assumption is correct. No random NR tags unless quotas increase or they do some creative rounding.

    Onx will show the hunt area and county boundaries. It’s a fairly small part of area 7 and most of it is private land. It’s also only valid for bulls with 5 or fewer points on a side.

    The vast majority of “rifle” tags also allow you to archery hunt.

    Help me spend Wyoming points

    You must be looking at 2021. Area 2 went to general in 2022.

    If you don’t have many points and want to burn them this year, why not get a type 4 cow tag in a unit with lots of elk and good access? Lots of people are wrapped up in the “chance” to shoot a bull, but the low point bull tags are usually low point for a reason. That said, you may get extremely...

    See below, you can hunt with both weapons on gen. Only archery on type 9 FWIW. The parts of 36 I’ve been in are very rugged, tough access and lots of thick dark timber.
