    Finally! After 21 years of applying

    Well, I didn't take too long to make a decision. Opening morning, we found this very good bull and I decided he would be exactly what I wanted and hoped to have in my home. Such a great adventure leading up to the hunt, time spent with friends, and an amazing animal to bless our bellies.

    NOSLER wants to see your success

    I have used Nosler bullets exclusively for several years. I haven't bought a factory box of ammo in at least 10 years, shy of some AR-15 stuff for my son's rifle and some 9mm practice ammo. Lots of great experiences with the 140 Accubond in a couple 7mm-08, 140 Ballistic Tips as well, 160...

    Hunter Orange requirement?

    Good morning! I am a lucky hunter who drew the Utah Pilot Mountain/Nevada 091 LE elk tag this year. I know that I can hunt the Nevada side of this unit and have scouted it quite a bit now. One of the rules of hunting both states on this reciprocating tag is that the hunter must follow the...

    Like New Salomon Quest 4D 3 GTX size 9.5

    For Sale, size 9.5 Men's Salomon Quest 4D 3 GTX boot in Phantom Black/Quiet Shade color. I picked these up a couple of years ago but never wore them. They sat in my closet until I finally wore them on a hike a month or so ago. Literally have 5miles on them at most. I have other boots that I...

    Book cliffs elk

    Congrats! I spent a week last September there with my brother hunting ML Deer. It was a total blast. Saw a bunch of elk, but weren't really looking for them. One long tined 6 point that was really narrow, but great long tines. It was awesome and it was fun to hear them bugling a little bit...

    Finally! After 21 years of applying

    Made a trip a few weeks ago and mainly used it as a way to get to know the layout a little better. Saw several large groups of elk which got my blood pumping. Hope to make it out again in the next couple of weeks and spend more time exploring away from the roads, specifically looking at water...

    15x Binos

    I am with Bluffgruff as well. I am quite jealous that people can hold a 15x steady enough to look through them without a tripod. I can't even hold a 10x steady enough and have gone to the 8x and now 9x route to get away from the ever apparent shakiness that I must possess. I suppose that an...

    Finally! After 21 years of applying

    Thank you 1 Pointer! Yes the Roudy family I think. Turns out these Cutthroat are a pure strain of Cutthroat that has helped rehabilitate Pyramid Lake in Nevada. Seems some folks took fish from Pyramid Lake and had transplanted them in the Pilot range many many moons ago. Watch this video...

    Finally! After 21 years of applying

    As far as I know, this is the only one. Utah and Wyoming do something similar for fishing on Flaming Gorge too, but as far as hunts go, this is the only one I know of.

    Finally! After 21 years of applying

    Thank you for the Congrats! Yes, my Utah tag works for my side of the state line (Pilot Range) and the Nevada side of that range (Unit 091). It is a joint program between the states. Nevada hunters who draw that tag can hunt on the Utah side too. It will be about 10 tags in Utah and 10 in...

    Finally! After 21 years of applying

    Well, 21 years of applying to hunt a LE bull elk in Utah, I have drawn a tag. I had been applying for a unit where Point Creep has gotten out of hand. In fact, I had better odds 5 years ago to draw that tag then I did the past two years. So...I decided I really wanted to hunt and have a good...

    Another entry level alpha bino ?

    I get that "pop" from my Maven B2 9x45 bino. Have heard that the B1 bino from Maven is very similar, but I haven't tried them enough to say. I definitely get it with the B2. I think a Zeiss HT would be an awesome choice. Nice grab!
