Lead Shot Ban
"Furthermore, each year,∼20% of free-flying birds have blood lead levels (≥450 ng/mL) that indicate the need for clinical intervention to avert morbidity and mortality. Lead isotopic analysis shows that lead-based ammunition is the principle source of lead poisoning in condors. Finally...- Perlodid

Hornady ELX - No Good for Hunting Elk???
I used ELD-X 145 grain bullets (270 win) for my Montana hunt last year and the damage was pretty ridiculous. Shot distance was about 50 yards, slight quartering away. I was behind the shoulder and a bit low, I didn't inspect it fully as it was already 70 degrees out and I needed all the time I...- Perlodid

Wyoming deadline clarity
Pretty sure June 1st is the app deadline for Montana, not the results date. Results are supposed to be August 6 this year according to gohunt.- Perlodid

De-publicize, De-glorify and De-monetize Western State Hunting
I don't think they are suggesting that there's an easy fix to all of the problems ungulates face in the West today. I took it to say that there is a clear distinction between conservation and wildlife focused advocacy versus advocacy based around personal interests in tag allocation, nonresident...- Perlodid

Tom's finding hens
For some MI specific advice (I hunt SE MI turkeys) - as long as you are seeing them in both areas either is totally fine but it's worth spending a bit of extra time upland in the late mornings/afternoons because you're more likely to find sandy soil for dustbaths/scratching + extra visibility...- Perlodid

Montana D & E this week??
NR Deer Combo successful with 2 points - just updated a few minutes ago. Maybe this year I'll actually be able to hold out for a muley and not shoot the first whitetail buck I see- Perlodid

What were your worst caliber/rifle choices
I got a savage 93 17hmr when I was younger and you couldn't pay me to have another one. Extremely accurate, one of the most accurate guns I have shot but constant magazine/feeding issues. Also had a savage 220 that misfired often, gunsmith could never figure it out. Misfired on 3 separate bucks... -

Case Against R3
It really doesn't take any imagination at all. Matt ends his article with this: This sounds nice on paper to someone who already hunts. This model has worked, but it hasn't worked for everyone. Like a lot of people here, I grew up hunting because my dad did, and his dad did, etc. But you have...- Perlodid

WY whitetail advice
I have not hunted whitetail in wyoming, but if you want to hunt whitetails specifically you should definitely look into the type 3 (any whitetail) licenses. Quite a few of those have historically been available as a second choice, so you wouldn't even need to burn points. Usually not a lot of... -
I'm not buying points for Colorado anymore, tell me I'm wrong.
I agree with most of the sentiment expressed in this thread overall, it's a tough situation to be in at this point. I think it's worth building points to hunt specific units and to be able to push past point creep in years like this one. It really depends on your attitude towards point-building...- Perlodid

Arizona CC Hits
Checked my account and had a lower balance than I expected. Got excited for a second and then had my hopes immediately dashed because my card just got compomised. Wonderful. Well that's one way to find out I guess- Perlodid

Arizona CC Hits
I have to believe it will happen tomorrow, but I think if people don't get hit by the end of the day Monday I'm gonna have to gamble on New Mexico. This is already a little close for comfort to the deadline for me.- Perlodid

Second guessing
+1 on going to Montana. I went to Montana for the first time this year - I had a great time and I shot my biggest whitetail to date thus far. I also agree with going as early as you can to keep conditions a little closer to Wyoming. Even though a lot of information won't carry over from state to...
