also i’m getting to hunt montana antelope NM mule deer and 3rd rifle CO deer and KS rifle deer this year. it’s probably my biggest year in the woods , knock on wood, of my life so far. if those guys who never get out have a great hunt and i don’t get a bull i’ll be ok this year.
lol. i hear you. it’s not my first elk hunt. they’re both great friends i’ve had for decades who’ve never hunted out west and have let themselves get out of shape. they’re married with younger kids than me. I’m trying to get them into western hunting the way i am. if i can get them into elk...
well obviously. work and Dad schedule will give me the days i get and that’s what i get. just trying to have a clue not expecting to have them tied to a tree as Big Fin would say
so if we do my plan i’d be going out by myself with an archery cow tag in september to scout for their lazy asses and you like my odds of having some good spots for first rifle after putting 50 miles on my boots in there?
Hi we drew this unit cluster for first rifle anyone know of anyone that allows access or does trespass fee in these units? the guys i’m hunting with are grumbling about my let’s go scout and hike the crap out of it approach
yeah i decided not to even try to draw this year. i’m going to break the bank for a unit wide landowner tag. i didn’t want to miss out on hunting this year in case the worst happens and the age class gets destroyed by these new later dates
I am hoping for at least an ok november NM rifle deer tag
waiting on first choice 3rd rifle deer in CO
and second choice CO Elk on a second choice first rifle tag i did well with last year
MT antelope 700 with 3 points
KS deer 91% with zero points
all pretty high % draws and yeah before...
having studied draw trends for a few different species in many units in several states for a while i will say that wyoming antelope fluctuates more than any other species in any other state. it’s seems like most of the units i look at do not have a classic creep trend instead you see units get...
it’s hilarious how plans evolve. how i get so psyched up for a hunt and then Utah decides to do their general deer dates on a different pattern than usual and now
