    Archery deer area 231 dates

    This is my first archery tag here and was wondering if I will be hurting myself by hunting the last week of the season? I could make the hunt anytime during the season but it works a little better for my schedule to go the first week of September. I will not be able to make a pre season...

    Baby girl joined the club today

    My 12 year old daughter drew the youth hunt on a WMA not far from our house. This was her first turkey hunt and the hunt is only for 1 day. Didn?t hear a peep all morning until about 9:30 while we were setup on a food plot. After an hour and a half I decided we needed to make a move on them...

    Camping location

    Wondering if anyone would recommend a good place to camp just northwest of Thermopolis. We will be chasing antelope and it is my wife?s first hunting trip in Wyoming. I would like to camp a few nights if it?s not too uncomfortable for her. A place to fish nearby would be great! Thanks...

    Thank You!!

    I wanted to take the time to thank all of the Eastman's Forum Members and Staff for helping me get started hunting the West. Truly, a childhood dream. Growing up in the south with ONE big game species to hunt, I could not even imagine how much longer the learning curve would be without your...

    First high country buck

    Watched this buck most of the day before the opener and woke up to zero visibility opening day. After sitting in the my tent until 4:00pm the fog lifted and we took off. Spotted him in his bed shortly after reaching our glassing spot. Got setup and waited him out. He finally stood and...

    Wondering if someone could tell me what I am doing wrong. I have tried to use the offline maps mode for the app with my iPhone 2 times in 2 different states and each time I lose phone service and switch to offline maps I can't view the map. I have saved the maps at the house as instructed with...

    WY turkey trespass

    Filled our SD turkey tags and still have a couple days left to hunt with WY tags. Wondering if anyone knows anywhere in northeast WY that would take a trespass fee for a turkey? We will probably hit some public land but thought I would see if we could get on some private with only a couple days...

    Late Rifle

    Anyone ever hunted with Chappell Guide Service? Thinking about using them for my late rifle elk hunt. Not sure which unit yet either 9 or 19A. He said they were confident in either unit. Seems like both are pretty tough during the late rifle hunt for different reasons so I think I'm going to...

    37 cow trespass

    Well I'm back from my general elk hunt with a tag still in my backpack. After returning to work and reviewing vacation, I may be able to take off the first week of November. Since the general tag in area 37 is any any elk tag and does not close until the 5th, I could return with 4 days to...
