Lots of people would give up elk and deer tags for 10 years to just hunt Oryx once....never seen someone make it like a bad thing that they drew an Oryx tag haha
Zion is the best IMO but they haven’t gave out tags to non residents the last couple years. You get some big rams that stumble out of ZNP. Plus limited tags obviously creates some big ones.
Chad Mendes big ram a few years ago is from there.
Taking it back to 2023 when surprisingly I drew a Rocky Mountain Sheep Ewe tag. This was a new hunt (only been around for 3 years at the time) and my odds of drawing was less than 1%. Needless to say I was very happy with my successful email.
Not knowing anything about that unit I quickly began...
I've hunted it once before. A lot of the elk I was seeing were hanging out in the fields by Salida. I'd watch the elk to come out of the fields and onto BLM/FS land. That's how I tagged out. Hope this helps!
Me and my buddy drew this tag with hopes of getting our first whitetail bucks. What should we expect size wise? Shoot first whitetail buck you see type hunt or be more patient? Been hearing conflicting information from different people I have talked to about the units.
Also, our plan is too...
First time hunting Bull Elk in Nevada…glassed up this bull with a herd of about 100 cows and some rag horns. Since I was new to hunting branched antlered bulls I didn’t trust myself to field judge a bull elk on the hoof. I texted the first picture to a couple of my friends and most of them said...
Let’s see some WY Whitetail Pictures! Me and my buddy should be going on our first whitetail hunt in the fall. Would love too see some successful hunt pictures!
