    Big horn scenic drive?

    I drive from Iowa to Sheridan 3-4 times a year. If it’s not the middle of the night I usually drive 14 from Gillette to Sheridan. Usually plenty to look at. When leaving Buffalo to meadowlark the South Fork is a decent place to stop and eat ( My wife and I got married there 10years ago) pretty...

    Daughters First Bear Hunt!!

    We took our time and got it all ready to go and didn’t end up any further down then we started!! It wasn’t a really far hike out but the first couple hundred yards were straight up. Kaylee packed out the hide on the pack frame and I got the rest out in my pack. Although it was a very quick...

    Daughters First Bear Hunt!!

    We got back to town and decided to load up the 4wheeler with snow tracks on and Kaylee and I headed up to go hunt for the evening. The ride back wasn’t too bad but we wouldn’t have gotten to far without the tracks. We arrived at 4:30 or so and I got a text that there was only 1 female left on...

    Potential Relocation Areas

    Well at least you’ve got to live in some different areas to know what you like and don’t like. Tennessee is pretty. I lived in eastern Kentucky after I got out of school for a few years that was an experience! Now all I think about is getting back to Wyoming!

    Deer Drives

    In Iowa that’s about how 50% of hunters hunt during shotgun season. I think it works well with an organized/responsible group but seems like most are shooting at the first thing that moves and gets pretty hairy quick. I don’t participate in the drives anymore as I don’t enjoy them personally...

    Average shot distance on pronghorn.

    We’ve been out west the last few years hunting antelope. Shot distance seems to vary for us on location and how much pressure. One place we hunt they’re pretty spooky I tell people going with us be ready for 250-350yards. I took my daughter and her friend this past fall (both 12 at the time) and...

    I wonder with Wyoming I think also having the same 14 day quarantine if they will follow suit and do the same as Montana. I did get an email they would refund your bear/turkey tag I think but didn’t see it was closed yet?
