If you don't have a shutter release you can always set your phone camera up preferably on a tripod, flip the camera to the front selfie mode with the screen facing you, switch it to video slowly walk to your animal... grip and grin and pose while you can see the screen. Then simply slow the...
Personally, I am never disappointed in Wyoming as a NR. Yeah sure, some years I don't draw squat. But when I do, I feel like I get great bang for the buck... you basically have numerous chances to fill with an additional option of archery season except for type 9 hunts. Antelope hunts are...
I heard they are only doing half of the elk draw today, and then the other half tomorrow.... antelope split between Monday and Tuesday...;)
Still waiting...
Understandable given the situation, I wish that this winter didn't happen myself, other than needed moisture... I think most people are trying to hope for the best out this, I would just really temper expectations... it's not great out there.
Winterkill started long before applications even opened, by the time apps were due it was fairly common knowledge it was going to be bad… Then it continued to snow for another month after that. There’s quite literally a ton of post through various forums on the matter…not trying to be...
Unfortunately people would rather complain than actually have to put some effort into being a participant in the process. Steamboat had a grand total of 4 people actually show up to voice their opinions.
I might have applied for the same unit... You could draw random though...;)
More seriously I think the odds are better to draw a resident sheep tag in my own state than any animal in Utah. I'm on a 30+ year drought on sheep for the record..:sick:
They would’ve released results today, however with all the people logging in the last couple days to check results, they’ve crashed the system, just like deadline day. Check back next week…
Sheep had 36k+ applicants, 330ish tags a year, 40-50 year window for sheep hunters physically.... 2/3 of us will die with sheep points, likely more with people jumping back into the pool... Fact.
I'm 32 years in... I'll apply as many places as I can in the hope of drawing 1...
This^^^^
It's hard to describe. I knew it was bad just seeing and living in it every day. When I flew over it a month ago I was in awe, hundreds of miles just like it, barren wasteland. I wished I had taken pictures... thanks for sharing these...
There's plenty of good bulls left in 61. 320-340 is realistically doable for those that put some serious effort, including scouting. Rifle season is tough because most of the big boys leave the cows and hole up. There's also a few bulls 350+ here and there, but you also have to weed through a...
