    Wrestling a Grizz to the death

    How does that work? Will not be quick enough to draw, aim, shoot with a gun ; but will with spray? While stying upwind so I don’t get blow back in my own face? The rest of the advice makes sense - clean camp, aware of surroundings, extreme caution around carcass and kill site. Avoid the...

    E - Scouting - is grazing something to think about?

    Thanks guys. Not late season, opens October 1 Can’t go all the way high as that is designated wilderness and off limits to me. The non wilderness public has grazing permits - won’t over think it and see what we see in October

    E - Scouting - is grazing something to think about?

    So I got a cow elk tag in the WY leftover draw and am now doing my map research and e-scouting. Most of the public is NF, found 4+ trailheads that look like they lead to good areas, but will have to watch the GPS to make sure I stay on the correct side of wilderness boundaries. So I google...

    Hunting partners…Finding new ones, losing old ones.

    If Thorofare is the gold standard, bucket list hunt...

    Ya. I have 4 points for next years draw. So could probably draw for 2023. Haven't checked any outfitters yet, but my understanding is they fill up fast, may be full for 2023 already.

    What map would you trust more - BLM or OnX?

    I can't see your map image, so not sure what you are seeing. Last year in WY I came across some roads that turned off a designated county rd. and crossed mixed BLM and private. They were access roads for wells, pump pads and other oil infrastructure. They were not designated county roads per...

Use as a halter for trailering, tying, etc. Hang the bit and reins for riding. easy on/off if you need to tie or lead in the middle of a ride. Can also lead with the bid in, reins looped over horn, but using halter ring so...

    Question on WY NR License Types

    OK - got it. The big advantage of the limited tag is the migration traffic. That makes sense. The region F general tag appears to have decent draw odds. Is the region F general tag still a decent tag? are there some huntable resident deer? Just looking for a first mule deer hunt - no...

    Question on WY NR License Types

    So no luck on WY elk draw this year. Had a successful pronghorn hunt near Buffalo last year. Debating on doing Pronghorn again or trying for mule deer. I want to make sure I am understanding the General vs. Limited licenses. So I can apply for a General License, quota of 550 and then I can...

    Montana - Hunting American Prarie Reserve - PN Ranch Block Mgmt

    PN ranch block, north of Winifred, on the MO river, MO river breaks. Planning to hunt public land and then found about Block Mgmt areas - wondering if they are a good option as they would be additional acres in the area I plan to hunt anyway My (cow) tag is good in any 400 unit, except the CMR...

    Montana - Hunting American Prarie Reserve - PN Ranch Block Mgmt

    I think so? That is not something I want to make a mistake on. Their website says hunting in accordance with MT FWP regulations, I can find maps of the open areas, nothing says no elk or other species restrictions. Adjacent public areas are open. APR does have one block unit, Blue Ridge...
