    WY antelope Unit 52-1 NR with 5 ppts? First timer.

    Any other suggestions? NR with 5 ppts. If I am not drawn, am I awarded a pref point or do I still have to buy it? In AZ we are awarded a point when not drawn. Do you only loose points if drawn for your 1st choice?

    WY antelope Unit 52-1 NR with 5 ppts? First timer.

    First time putting in for WY antelope. I've been researching for quite some time and it's kind of overwhelming choosing an area with decent public access and 5 points, not knowing the areas. Is there a decent chance this year, to draw unit 52-1 NR with an average of 5 ppts? (My brother and I...

    Friends, Firsts and Fun in Wyoming

    Great writeup! Really enjoyed the read. I too live in AZ and am planning to put in for my 1st WY antelope hunt with my brother who lives in IN. Another friend mentioned Lander. There seems to be a few units around Lander. Not sure if you care to mention/PM what unit you hunted? Can the nearby...

    Christenson Mesa... heavy-hard bold lift after firing round

    "Crap! I just bought a Ridgeline 6.5 PRC. I am doing the break in tomorrow. I pray it goes well. I did chamber/eject a round smoothly, but left scratches on the casing. Is this normal for a new rifle? " The break in went well. After cycling a few rounds, there were no more scratches on the...

    Another which pack thread... SG vs Exo vs Kuiu

    I went from Eberlestock to the Outdoorsman pack to Kuiu Icon Pro 3200. I like the light weight of it, the narrow profile and the fit. I wasn't sure I would like the large lumbar pad, but it really helps hold the rig in place. Half of the lumbar pad has a silicone surface, which helps as well...

    NIP Icon Pro 5200(bag only)Vias

    How much bigger is the 5200 compared to the 3200?...I mean does it look huge on your back? Going by pics in the catolog, it looks like the width difference is the side pockets and the height difference is the top lid. I have the 3200 and really like it so far. Haven't had a chance to hunt with...
