    10 days to decide

    I'm at 6 points and for 3 years I've been one point behind my unit.I put in for type 6 so hopefully I can hunt it without buying points and see if it's worth another year or two wait.Not going to bail on a general tag though.Ive been researching a handful of units I can draw or can within a year...

    WY Elk Inquiry - 5 pts

    In my research, your wasting you points in 41 if you want to archery hunt.Too much wilderness you can't hunt that will hold most of the elk in Sept.Dont know anything about 37.Id go with a type 1 tag,archery hunt last week and then try again in rifle hoping weather pushes more out of...

    NM keeping your hunting license $

    If you've ever drawn a tag and elk hunted NM, you won't have an issue with $63.I have more of an issue with colorado new game in making you buy a license to apply.Of all the states I hunt they have the least quality experience

    Thoughts on BRO guys?

    I watch their videos and agree that they now seem pressured into taking marginal shots.Hate the fact that they showed everybody how effective multiple callers are.Ive used that method for 10 years.I hope next season they relax a little and realize it's not great to show low percentage shots.I...

    Wyoming on 5 points

    Spend your points wisely.You may never catch the point creep on what's now 5-7 pt units.Forget about the max pt trophy units.Im a couple points behind those and will take forever to catch those.If I ever do

    Idaho Diamond Creek Tags

    Wanted to try that zone in Idaho this year.A week ago I tried to enter all my imfo on their website but couldn't get a customer id..Said I had to contact them,and I forgot.Think it had to do with Hunter safety imfo.Checked this morning to see zone sold out.Was planning to square everything away...

    GoHunt worth it?

    They don't offer up much Intel on the units.General areas but with as many subscribers you can't get too detailed.At least it wasn't 2 years ago when mine ran out.I don't get to use free trials to see if it's any better now They tell you about terrain, suggestions on how to hunt different...

    new mex private land elk tag december?

    Should be able to find plenty of cow tags.LO bull tags I'm sell for outrageous prices.The unit I drew this year isn't a trophy unit and they still wanted $4500 for just the tag If you just want meat and some fun do a cow hunt.Plenty of those under $1500 to be found in a search

    Unit 51 NM 1st rifle Elk

    Shot my bull in NM on the 6th.Got to my unit 2 days early finding mostly mule deer but an area of fresh elk sign.No talking from the elk at all during my scouting.Saturday morning got into a bull with cows 10-15 minutes after shooting light.Went to circle in front of them but ran into them...

    GoHunt worth it?

    I had it 2 years and it's decent,but alot of their description of the hunts are pretty bs.Not all so don't jump down my throat.I just use Toprut now,free imfo for all I need.It has draw odds,success rates,landownership percentages,map of unit I did like gohunts articles but not for $150.Bull/cow...

    Wyoming HMA's

    I've had great success hunting the HMAs.In archery,I have better luck putting up a piece of burlap on a fence within shooting range of a crawl under.Antelope go under fences and leave obvious trails.I have always got shots using this method and it's faster then setting up a blind.I never had...

    Wyo with 4 PP

    Take a look at unit 73 or 74 outside of Casper.I'm not sure points needed now,but when I deer hunted unit 34 I saw a monster antelope.Biggest I've ever laid eyes on.Its pretty country and has plenty of good size antrlope.Couple years ago you could draw it with 4 pts

    Colorado elk 15 points

    Unit 40 your pretty much stuck with using an outfitter.Not enough public land to make for a good diy hunt.Muzzleloader in unit 66 is another possible unit you may have some interest in

    Colorado elk 15 points

    First rifle season in unit 49.Doubtful you'll find a 350 class but a 300-320 is probable with some effort.Very few 1st season hunters in the unit.May have a better shot at a big bull in muzzleloader there

    Drew 1st rifle in unit 49 NM

    I've been trying a few years to draw New Mexico and this was my year.I've never been to New Mexico before,but did alot of research before applying.I drew unit 49 for the earliest rifle hunt,and I assume the bulls should be pretty vocal.There is alot of public in the unit,and wanted to hear from...

    40 Mile Air Lake Hunt

    One bit of advise is make sure you have 3-4 extra days of food.On these fly outs weather is a BIG deal.You can get stuck for days.A flex ticket on your airline is a good idea to.Have the BEST rain gear you can afford.It rains more then it shines in Ak so just be prepared for being wet alot
