    HMA question

    And if you're not wanting to "drive" after it, obviously if there is unrestricted public access between the road you're on and the HMA (or if the road borders the HMA), you can always just get out and go on foot into the HMA. A lot of HMAs abut other public non-HMA lands so you may find yourself...

    Best place to find a guide?

    If you're going guided, you may also at least consider applying in New Mexico, because New Mexico rewards people who hunt with guides by allocating more tags to them than the random NR draw.

    Poacher caught

    Seems like "revoking" his hunting and trapping privileges is meaningless. It's not like he was hunting and trapping legally before...

    2020 Texas controlled hunts

    Don’t get me wrong, LopeHunter. I apply for a ton every year because it’s cheap to do so. But I still reserve the right to wish for a better system, one that acknowledges a distinction between residents and non-residents. You’ll never hear me complain about non-resident allocations in states I...

    What’s a good 2-5 point Wyoming Elk unit for bow or rifle?

    General is the way I'm going next year if point creep doesn't get me. But I fear this was the last year where three points guaranteed you a general tag.

    a non US citizen and i would like to hunt in the future

    Just remember that each State is different, so probably best to pick a state or two or three and focus on those. But as a practical matter, there is no difference between someone from outside of the US and someone from a different state within the US when it comes to hunting—the rules that will...

    Bear Head Taken from Colorado Road Kill

    Oh, I hear you, Doug, no excuses—definitely a problem. I’m still just sort of trying to understand the mentality behind it (once you get past the fact that it’s illegal).

    Bear Head Taken from Colorado Road Kill

    Weird. Who sees a roadkill bear and thinks, I know. I’ll take its head.

    Summer Desert Bull Pics

    Great pics. I didn’t pull that tag either (and I don’t even know which one it is).

    Colorado, Good On Ya!

    I definitely agree with this sentiment. One would hope that more people will realize that it's the hunters and fishers that have been subsidizing (to some degree) their outdoor enjoyment areas.

    WY points are open.

    Did buy a deer point for the first time this year (in addition to antelope and Elk). I understand the Wyoming deer point to be a pretty long-term investment, too.

    Welcome from Houston and good luck! Stick around long enough and you'll learn quite a bit, I'm sure.

    Cow Elk Hunting Tactics

    One thing I found interesting about that podcast was the idea that, if you only have a couple days to hunt, you might be better off sitting over water or next to a well-worn trail, even if that means sitting still for 10 hours. I'm giving myself a week, first archery cow hunt, but I admit if I...

    2020 Texas controlled hunts

    "Luck" being the operative term here. The draw odds for the Texas public hunts are pretty horrific. I'm from Texas and can't for the life of me understand why we don't do a resident/non-resident draw like every other state. I mean, there are very few tags to go around anyway because of the lack...

    WY points are open.

    Yeah, that's a better friend than I have. And that's an expensive mistake on his part...
