How far do you normally shoot? (Rifle)
I shot my best buck at about 60 to 80 yards last year. My first one was 100 yards and one down in Wyoming was 150ish. Been on a couple shoots with some longer range stuff, but overall it seems as if 150-250 is about the 'norm' for quite a few people. -

Wyoming Sage Grouse mixed with Pronghorn?
Interesting observation for sure. I would love to have one mounted with a few of the other grouse (a Sharptail/Pheasant as well). Just something unique for me more than anything, and I'm sure will enjoy some other wingshooting on the trip as well.- Rackmastr

Wyoming Sage Grouse mixed with Pronghorn?
Very cool man!! I've done quite a bit of upland hunting in my life, just wasn't sure on the difficulty in locating Sage grouse or exactly how plentiful they are in certain areas. Decisions to be made about where we are hunting pronghorn, but the sage grouse bug has got me itching a bit...- Rackmastr

Wyoming Sage Grouse mixed with Pronghorn?
Hey all, Wife has a BUNCH of points for Pronghorn in Wyoming. She'll be at 12 for next year, and I'll be at 4 for a combined 8 if we decide to hunt both on the same year. Thinking that next year is the year for sure that we'll do a hunt, but on my radar as well is trying to find a decent day...- Rackmastr

wyoming point creep with increased tag prices?
All this talk about point creep on Wy antelope and my wife is sitting on 11 points and I'm sitting on 3 lol. We likely wont be able to make a hunt 'a go' this year due to some family trips, other tags up in Alberta and BC and a busy fall already. My hope is that we can do a big family trip... -
Antelope...Lets See Them!!!
My wife's and Dad's double-header from Alberta in September.... Posted a thread about it as well, was a pretty cool experience! -
Wyoming Pronghorn Numbers
Thanks for posting! Makes a guy think that we should be applying to burn up some of those points that are sitting there currently (wife is an 11 and I'm a 7). Tag numbers look positive and a few decent winters should mean some pretty good growth potential. Currently wrangling the ideas of... -
Got a plan
Sounds like a great plan!! Cant wait to get back to Wyoming again soon! -
Selecting a "Premium" Unit for 11 PP
Sure seems like the case Eli from any research a guy does it's obvious that there are hit and miss years in each and every zone. Even more evident is that obviously patience and putting time in on several days of searching and having the experience to pick apart bucks to know what you are... -
Selecting a "Premium" Unit for 11 PP
A lot of the threads I've read on 114 were on MonsterMuleys and Eastmans. Most of the posts in regards to private land, etc were actually from you on both sites. In the past you had said yourself you wouldn't waste points in that zone but that was 3 years ago and things obviously change year to... -
Selecting a "Premium" Unit for 11 PP
Funniest/weirdest experience at Riverton when we hunted 67 was at about 2AM when a giant of a man came into the room drunk/high and tried to crawl into bed with my buddy. Guy must have been 6'8" and about 300 lbs. He was like watching the Undertaker come in when we all woke up and realized... -
Selecting a "Premium" Unit for 11 PP
No doubt it's still a strong consideration to apply both of us together (which puts us at 7) and do a great hunt with both of us. Non resident license costs are one consideration vs spreading it out over two different hunts, but yep it's a consideration given the time, length of drive, etc to... -
Selecting a "Premium" Unit for 11 PP
Thanks for the summary Eli it's appreciated and thanks to everyone for the PMs. Been busy chasing cats but I'll respond when I'm back at work. Funny you mention 57 as it came up in my research as well. I do really enjoy the planning and the logistical side of hunt planning as much as the hunt... -
When do people have time to listen to podcasts...
I listen to podcasts when working in my garage, working on taxidermy, driving long distances by myself, or in the gym.- Rackmastr

Recommend a Canadian outfitter
I fished with Cree River Lodge in Northern SK and would do so again without hesitation. Amazing pike and some awesome walleye.- Rackmastr

Selecting a "Premium" Unit for 11 PP
Yep having 11 points is a pretty cool spot for sure. Wife had been applying with me since the beginning and then when I drew last time (with a group of friends) she kept applying since she wasn't able to come on that hunt. I've read a lot about 114 being a tough zone for private land access... -
Selecting a "Premium" Unit for 11 PP
Was pretty confident of that. My decision is going to come down to whether applying in one of those vs blending and applying in a zone like 67 (which I have hunted) will give as good a quality of hunt with both of us having tags, or if its just worth drawing a 'premium' unit for the one time it... -
Selecting a "Premium" Unit for 11 PP
Thanks LopeHunter for the insight, and ya I need to do some more looking into options really that give me a good idea about the draw odds for each zone and the number of years that it may take to draw some of the premium units vs picking a really good mid-tier zone for the number of tags. I...
