    Best Day Ever!!! NM Oryx and Chiefs Super Bowl Win!!!

    .300 WM with 185gr Berger Hybrid bullet, 400yrds off shooting sticks. First shot hit him behind the shoulder, a good shot for a whitetail but a bit too far back for an oryx. Shot two more times on the move that hit him back as well. He went about 200yrds before going dow. These things are tough...

    Best Day Ever!!! NM Oryx and Chiefs Super Bowl Win!!!

    When I found out I drew the Rhodes Canyon broken horn Oryx tag I knew it was an experience I wanted to share with my daughter and dad. I figured this would be a good trip for her to tag along since she's only 7 and the hunt is not as physically demanding as most western big game hunts. She had...

    Outfitter/Resident for Wyoming Unit 98

    The general season closes on Oct. 15 our limited type 1 tag will be good until Oct. 31st. It's not pricey compared to other elk outfitters, its just hard to justify an extra $21,000 for 3 guys to have a little higher probability of taking an animal. I've talked to a few people that have hunted...

    Outfitter/Resident for Wyoming Unit 98

    Thanks for the reply, I have an outfitter that says they have availability, but its pricey. I thought maybe there's a resident that only hunts the general season that would be willing to go out in the field either before after the general and trade for a Kansas whitetail/turkey/waterfowl hunt...

    Outfitter/Resident for Wyoming Unit 98

    Does anyone have any outfitter or licensed resident referrals for unit 98 in Wyoming? I have a group of 3 that put in for the limited tag in this unit with enough points we should draw. I've contacted Thompson and Big Sandy and am waiting for more info. Are there any other outfitters or willing...

    Wyoming Lowlands Elk

    We've only ever archery hunted for elk, this will be our fist hunt with a rifle. In 4 years hunting Idaho public land we killed one small bull, missed some shots and had tons of opportunities. Decided to try something different this year. I figured there wouldn't much calling in the flat terrain...

    Wyoming Lowlands Elk

    I would be all for it if it didn't come with a $7500 price tag. I have a hard time paying that much for an elk hunt when I can take a trip to Alaska for the same price. Maybe some day I'll be in a spot financially to drop money on guided hunts every year but not right now. My dad is in pretty...

    Wyoming Lowlands Elk

    My Dad and I put in for a Wyoming unit (I'll leave the number out) that should be 100% draw odds. The unit has a small piece of the south side of the Wind River range and tons of open sage flat land and irrigated ag fields. Our tag if we draw will allow us to hunt from Sept. 20 until the end of...

    Daughters first turkey hunt

    I decided to break down and buy my 6yr old a crossbow for Christmas. I wanted to get her started turkey and deer hunting and thought that it would be less scary and no recoil compared to a shotgun or rifle. After countless hours of practicing I decided she was ready for her first turkey hunt...

    Unit 23 Success!!!

    Comparable to elk... I like it better than deer. We brought home all the meat off of two bull caribou which ended up being around 220lbs
