    Wyoming Randomness

    I am still trying to decide if I want to burn my 3 points on a General Unit or apply for a tag similar to Randy and Marcus' 2017 Wyoming tag and hunt elk with a rifle in mid-Sept. Either way I go, I fret about the non-wilderness area and my incessant need to find a lonely glassing ridge or...

    Points/ draw questions

    I work in Hamilton, right outside Liberty Township. Definitely a small world it seems. Kraftjd, You don't have to wait 10 years to hunt elk. You can hunt them next year. The opportunity is there........... but if you want to build points to hunt in a primo hunt location, then building...

    Any new fitness goals for the 2018 season?

    Congrats! I ran a few marathons. I would enjoy the event and qualify at another course somewhere. Good luck. For me, I just recently started doing an easier version of the Mike Murphy WOD 4-5 days a week. Run, pull ups, push ups, squats then run again. I like doing his workout as often as...

    Points/ draw questions

    Using Wyoming as an example, you can buy a PP for $50 each year and not hunt. You can build points year after year. Or you can put in for a really hard to get Limited Tag as your 1st choice and apply for an easier to get tag as your 2nd choice. If you are awarded that 2nd choice tag, you...

    Points/ draw questions

    Welcome, I am from Cincinnati too. Live in Southeast Indiana. You can hunt Colorado and Idaho every year on Over The Counter tags and build points elsewhere. Wyoming will probably take 2.5-3 points this year to hunt General Tag units.

    Wyoming Elk Second Choice

    One question I still have. How are Type 4's as a 2nd choice allocated? If the unit has 10 of them, and 8 are still available after all 1st choices are looked at, how do they dole out those 8 to the 2nd choice candidates? Is it random, or by PP?

    Wyoming Elk Second Choice

    Richard, I really appreciate that offer. Very generous of you. If my search takes me towards the Medicine Bow, I will be in touch.

    Wyoming Elk Second Choice

    Thanks! Everybody's replies have helped me tremendously. I have some thinking to do. The wind is blowing from the north today and today I feel like a General Tag in a unit with 95-100% public land is the direction I want to head in. The Limited Units with checkerboard access, private land...

    Wyoming Elk Second Choice

    You say I can't list a Type 6 as my 2nd Choice if I list a Type 1 as my 1st Choice. When, how, where do I apply for that Type 6 then? If the unit I want to hunt has a Type 4, I will shoot for that one. But if it doesn't and it only has a Type 6, then when do I apply for it?

    Wyoming Elk Second Choice

    Can somebody explain how Wyoming allocates non-resident elk Type 4 or Type 6 tags as the second choice in units that have those tags? I have 3 points and am torn between hunting a General Unit or keep building for a Limited Unit. I would like to hunt cows in the targeted Limited Unit for a few...

    OnX Chip & Garmin BaseCamp Issue

    I think its more of a BaseCamp issue. The chip works in the GPS, but won't connect to BaseCamp. I will reach out to both companies just in case though. Thanks!

    OnX Chip & Garmin BaseCamp Issue

    I plan on getting ahold of Garmin after Christmas, but thought I would ask here first. Has anybody ever run into an issue with your maps loading into Garmin Basecamp? BaseCamp gets halfway through loading my OnX Chip and then just stops and then doesn't recognize the chip. I have updated the...

    Foxpro Caller Recommendation

    I am looking to pick up a caller to start doing some coyote hunting on a few farms here in Indiana. I was looking at the Foxpro Fusion with a stand alone decoy or the Foxpro Hammerjack with built in decoy. Any opinions on having a decoy separate or attached to the caller? New to all this so...

    Exo Mountain 5500

    Don't think you can go wrong with it. I have a 3500 and use it out west, tree stand white tail and throw weight in it and walk around town. I love mine. It forces me to shed gear sometimes, but you should be ok with the 5500.

    Choosing Units...

    My first hunt west I took a list of things I wanted and prioritized them. First year....OTC, high country, glassing while drinking coffee (the little things) and we ended up in elk. I think the most important part of the work is asking yourself what you want. If you know what you want in a...

    Bucket list trade

    Heck of an offer! I wish you luck in your endeavor. I wish the access around here was like that in the west. If it were, I might have been able to offer something up. Tony
