Third stalk and tag number 1 punched! Maybe the coolest stalk I've ever made. He was below a boulder field. I stalked onto the top which was flat. Popped up over the top and he was feeding at less than 45 yards. Ranged the rock behind him at 45, put my 40 on him and whamo. Quartered to me. He...
I don't have any flip flops. But I so antelope hunt in extremely thin soled black nikes :) .
Stalk number 2 yielded my first miss of the year and also the first feel of cactus in my knee. Jumped a for. She ran away but for some reason spooked some other to me....kinda. The buck chased after...
Just pulled in. It's 87 degrees and not a breath of wind which is very much unlike any part if this state...but especially this part. I can't tell if this jittery feeling is excitement or the 40 ounces of red bull I've downed in the last 3 hours. Changing out of my neon green shorts for some...
Got the truck pointed northeast. Had to work graveyards last night in southwest Wyoming and headed somewhere between Casper and Gillette :) . My third choice tag was available in the leftover draw but had good luck in this unit a couple years ago so decided to try it again. Picked up a leftover...
1 pointer I don't think I've ever seen white hair like that at the bases. Awesome looking colors on that goat.
SFC - shoot one that makes you happy. Look over 2 or look over 200...when you see one that makes you happy pull the trigger.
I guess I'm not an expert but spent all spring in the mountains hunting bears....and I haven't seen this many deer, and more importantly bucks, in a long time. In one evening I saw over a hundred deer and more than 25 were bucks. It was awesome to see.
Assuming his right prong is close to the same and not as small as it looks in the picture I would go with 74 as well. He's got length and prongs but his prongs are low and not a whole lot of mass going on above the prong. If I had a decent tag I wouldn't look twice at this buck.
Well...drew my first limited quota elk tag, and it's in the mountains west of Cody. I've packed more than my fair share of elk out but I want to be able to go on as far as I can without fear of not being able to get one out within reasonable time. Along with the whole grizzly bear thing. I want...
Either that or really go for it and backpack in. Could be a cool hunt if you want to pack in a couple miles from the road. Then again, you could do that and still not see anything...
I don't know how well the beetles get the inside of the nose, i would assume pretty good but no idea. Regardless, every time I do a euro I tear out all of that nasal cavity. You'd be shocked as to how much crap comes out of there.....plus I think it makes a better looking mount to have a hollow...
My last buck on a Wyoming leftover tag. Was able to buy TWO any antelope tags. Never had been in the area before and killed a doe with my bow on the second day, and went back and killed a buck with he rifle. That bow hunt served as a very important scouting mission for the rifle. Left my house...
My buddy spotted one from his house last week early in the morning. When the sun hit him he went into the trees. For what that's worth. He also has more than a few trail cam pics of early morning bears on the bait as the sun comes up.I haven't ever seen one bear bright and early but I also like...
