hey, fng from Vegas....been on the site before and no longer lurking =).

aspiring hunter, lifelong outdoors guy...

Hunted on a spike elk rifle tag in UT - nope! Wrong tag...sadly

Hunted antelope in WY on a rifle tag - success!

Hunting this season on an archery tag(s) - Unit 171-3 in NV and an AZ archery tag this season. So far....no luck and the monsoons in AZ are wreaking havoc on my hunting trip plan (as in I was supposed to be there hunting TODAY...grr).

Anyways, new. Learning. And wish I knew more hunting folks to learn from...Thanks!

As the self-appointed chairman of the welcoming committee, it is my privilege to extend a laurel, and hearty handshake (virtual, of course) to our new member.

P.S. I try to make this post for all FNG's but given your location and my screen name, it is incumbent on me to do. :D

I found Werner Family Taxidermy to be a wonderful place to learn about hunting near Vegas and participate in the critical political challenges facing the state. They are trying to pull some real dirty shit there. I've even gone predator calling with these folks and managed to call in a herd of mustangs once...crazy ass stuff! You'll find networking with taxidermists, horse packers, meat processors, outfitters and other hunters to be hugely helpful. get to know your local Game Wardens too. There is no substitute for local knowledge & experience...people with boots on the ground in the areas you intend to hunt. Good luck out there and be careful of the cougars, they are in every casino.

Thanks a lot Eddie, much appreciated! If anyone out in Vegas land is looking for hunting partners or doesn't mind a noob coming along - let me know. Spent a lot of years outdoors, just never hunted and probably should have been...but am learning now!

I'm just over the hill from you in Pahrump. I'm in a similar boat to you. Been outdoors most of my life, but still new to hunting.

Sorry mdx. Just saw this. Don’t know if you pulled tags this season or not? My only NV tag was archery and it’s since come and gone. Got in Muleys twice but never got a shot in them. Still really cool tho.
