If anyone is interested in back issues of the Journal, I have part of 1997 to 2012. Not sure why I saved them, but wife said they should go. If you're interested, send me a PM and we can work something out. Not looking to make a killing on these, but just spread around. I'll split them up or...

I know this is last minute, but does anyone have any experience in Unit 78? Hunted Unit 17 last year by Gillette, bought a leftover tag, access was horrible as expected, but my grandson did get a nice buck before he headed off to the Army. Looking to burn our points this year and go with...

Any info on these units, looks like you still can draw them with 6 points. Like the dates better and no general hunt...

Anyone got info or history on Wyoming Deer Unit 117? Biologist said Unit 119 was the best area in his region, but I don't have enough points to draw (according to last years statistics). With point creep, I'm just checking all options. Last week I thought point creep was like global warming...

My grandson got this elk last week in a controlled hunt in Idaho. DIY, Public Land, Non-Motorized, just him and I, can't get much better!!
