I had to help 3 families move from and into new houses on saturday. I hunted for chukar and Sage grouse on Sunday. We rode in on 4 wheelers to a area that is very rugged and not many people get to. Gretta pointed the first sage hen and Jacob in the wrong position to get a shot. The next point...
our hatch is looking very good. I hunt them a little in september, but i don't like snakes. I wait for the hard hunting for Oct, Nov, Dec, and Jan. Ron
I had some big plans for today. My 11 year old son Jacob, and I were going to camp last night. This would give us the ability to sleep in a couple of hours. When we got up it was raining! The area I picked is only accessable by ATV. Well the fog was thick and it was cold and nasty. We pulled out...
This was a interesting hunt. We went to the old chicken coop and tried our luck. We camped at over 9000 feet, and we drove in on a road so bad that every time I drive it I say it is my last time. We hunted Thursday, Friday, and half a day on Saturday. I got sick on Friday night. I think I am...
I am hearing a lot more reports on good hatch numbers for Chukar. I have went blue grouse scouting a couple of times. I am thinking they didn't do so well. Any Idea on Sharptail? Ron
The Island park area went to the spike only hunt years ago. What happened there was a increase in LARGE bulls. In fact when they started up a bow hunt there guys were killing a lot of bulls over 325.
Several other areas I hunt have seen the same thing. I am not familiar with your area but in...
The thing is he HAS a cow tag already. He is thinking that if he shoots a cow, then he can shoot the calf with the super tag, so it won't have to starve through the winter. :BLEEP:

Yep that is right he got a Idaho super tag for elk. He was talking about shooting a cow |oo
I don't think he will spend more than a couple of days hunting. To be honest I don't know why he even put in. Ron
even here in Idaho the rights to hunt Geese is expensive. The area around American falls is going for 800.00 per field. I think the field I hunted was 80 acres. A friend of mine and a few other guys went together and got it. They shoot a lot of geese.
I shoot a lot of chukars, I don't pay a...
Well that stinks for your chukar dog! Bonnie is going to quit hunting if you don't give her wild chukars once and a while.
BTW, A friend of mine saw a covey of chukar this weekend. Three adults he said and 14 babies! I didn't hear how big they were. That sounds pretty good at least for the...
I was told by the F&G that our peak hatch should be June 10th. Most of the wet weather was past us then if I remember right we had only one shower for about a three week period. I just have not had the time to go check out any chukar populations. Let me know if you hear anything. Ron
I was wondering what you are seeing with bird numbers so far. Our Quail are doing a second hatch right now and we have good numbers of them. I haven't been out to look at chukar have you? Ron
