My son is in Salt Lake, so we are looking close to there. Thinking about the Kamas unit. We have no points so that limits what we can get.

Just curious on thoughts. Want to take my younger son (16) to hunt with my older son in Utah, just a general deer tag. The unit I am looking at, they give out a few hundred tags, and the success rate is listed as around 15%. We are not picky at all, its about getting out, having fun, and...

Very cool!

Perfect, thx. They also mentioned something about extended season either sex?

So my son is going to school at the U in Salt Lake, and he wants to get into archery hunting. He established residency, and was wondering if there are any OTC archery tags for elk, or if they're all draw. We are new to Utah hunting other than 25 years ago I once hunted rifle mulies. His buddy...

Thanks Jim. That's a start. So it would be best for him to start grabbing a point this year to begin with?

So, just finished up touring U of Utah, my son is 100% committed to going. Now, I know it will take some figuring out in the big game book, but in general, are there places around where he can get an "over the counter" Tag for elk or deer, or get a tag with no points, whatever they call it in...

Hey, good to hear from you too. Still in CA, still doing well. Thanks for the advice, I'll look into that.

Hey everyone, recently talking to my Dad and hes brought up wanting to try an elk hunt sometime. I think he's half joking, given that he's 76, has mobility issues, etc, but I also thought maybe there are private land places that are guaranteed tags and cater to that kind of client. So, does...

Very nice! Congrats!

I think it means different things to different people. I grew up hunting in Vermont, where Whitetail success was about 10-12%, so unless you had your own large property, and multiple deer to choose from, you shot the first legal buck. And that was all the "trpphy" I needed. But, if you're...

I drew 62 second rifle, took 1-2 points last year. I drew with 2 points......

I saw the other day the drawings were from May 24-26, or something like that. Got the email yesterday.

Guess the point creep must not have been too bad, my credit card just got hit for $412.......;)

I am not totally sure how to read the tables, but it looks like everyone with 1 point that applied as a Non-Resident got a tag last year, and thats the cutoff. I have 2 points, so hopefully good.
