    2024 Colombian Blacktail Buck

    Rifle season for the area I live in opens super early in August, when its peak summer. I was fortunate to have a break in the hot weather early in the season. I knew this would be a good time to focus on. The morning started out slow. I didn't see any dear on the hike into my spot. I moved...

    Sporstmans Warehouse, What Happened?

    The store near me has tons of open space that used to be full. Not a good sign and little competition in my area.

    How long?

    I will be hunting Bull Elk on Sept 1st in NV with my smoke pool. Heading out August 2nd to do some scouting and confirm research. Still not sure when the peak of the rut typically happens in northern NV. Been thinking about nothing but elk since I drew. Can't wait to hear bugles!

    Anybody else muzzleloader hunting this year

    I pulled a NV bull elk tag during Sept with a MZ. Last time I drew a MZ tag I borrowed a rifle from a friend. I'm thinking of purchasing my own this time. Currently looking at a CVA Accura LR.

    throwing good app money after bad and repeat

    I've been applying in other states for over 15 years now. Many things have changed since I started and so has my outlook on the process. Back then I thought DIY hunting public land and learning all the different states was the only way to go. Even looked down on guided hunting at times. My...

    Muley Freak in trouble?

    I watched the video of his appeal case and he went into the same area multiple times even after being warned by a game Warden. He clearly knew he was trespassing.

    Neck shots.

    IMO neck shots are the best if you can do it. They drop and don't risk the shoulder meat. Many times when shooting in the boiler room the exit wound destroys the opposite shoulder. If there close and I feel good I will take a neck shot.

    Wyoming deer Special draw odds??

    The change in odds for deer and antelope will be much more significant. For me, I am in it for the meat and so are many others. There is just not enough meat on the bone to justify a $1,200 lope tag.

    2024 Nevada Draw Results

    Ive been applying in NV for 14 years and have 12 points for D A and E. When I first started applying it looked like I would be able to draw a upper level Antelope tag in 5-8 years. Those same tags for me now will be much longer if ever. Looking at lower end units and the best I can come up with...

    WY Price Hike Implications

    I believe no change in the top 1/3rd of units for all species, but their will be change in the middle tier of units and dramatic change in the lower units. Some of the lower units will be able to be drawn with little points as they are not worth the price hike of the special to most. And that...

    What was your first big game rifle, and do you still have it?

    I saved up money when I was 16 for a Rem model 700 in 30-06. The trigger came set at 9ibs. Once I had the trigger smoothed to 3ibs it shot sub moa. I still have it and use it. I have taken 19 big game animals with it.

    Unit 66, 67 or 55 for young buck

    What about unit 1? She has just enough points and its the NW most unit.

    New Vortex Spotter

    He's right, but its not all of it, just most of it. All the top razor stuff that is made in Japan is good and maybe some others but your money would be better spent elsewhere when it comes to vortex

    Deer age?

    In order to guess age look at the body. The chest and sway of the back. Also, knowledge of the deer heard in the area helps a tons as size and shape very. Altlers is a factor but the most important of all are the teeth. Did you look at the teeth or tack pictures of the wear?

    Blacktail Buck

    I was fortunate to harvest this columbian blacktail buck this last Friday. Its been a long season with many ups and downs. I did shoot at and wound a buck the week before and was unable to recover the buck after the better part of a day tracking a blood trail through the nastiest brush on the...

    Walk in cooler hang time

    I recently harvested a blacktail deer and I have it hanging in a friends walk-in. My question is, what is the recommended time for hanging a whole carcass? Also, how long could I let it hang if I had to before butchering?
