    WY 90/10 Deer/Elk/Antelope Question

    90/10 is long overdue for us residents. Overwhelming support amongst my hunting buddies that the TF comes up with something to benefit residents. I'm just waiting for Guy to come out with his next, cry me a river article, about how life isn't fair for non-residents...

    Wyoming Passes 90/10: The Worst Article You’ll Read This Year - by Guy Eastman

    Same here. Think I drew 9 or 10 resident tags last year. I probably spent 10 - 15 times more than what I paid for tags and that was just in gas. Have no idea what I spent on various local economies, but it was a bunch. Thanks for what you did do... On a side note, Guy comes across in that...

    Wyoming Elk Hunt

    A friend in Wheatland was talking to Dax as his kid has that tag. He was told they have a bunch of guided cow elk hunts to fill and weren't doing any type 2 hunts until the others are finished...

    Why the animosity?

    Why do they always bury a farmer/rancher with one arm sticking out of the ground. So they can still get their gov't handout...

    WHAT A MESS!

    If I'm not big game hunting on Sat, I'm hunting waterfowl much of the fall and winter, so not a big deal. However, I'd like it more if the NFL folded for the year...

    How much to tip?

    15% plus or minus is a good start for your guide. Regarding everyone else, I always ask the guide what an average tip is for the cook or wrangler and go from there.

    Best Dates and Outfitters for NW Wyoming Thorofare Region Elk Hunt

    I've hunted the Thorofare numerous times over the years. Several were guided, the rest DIY. I always shot bigger bulls the last week of the season, but had to deal with deep snows. You also have a good chance of hitting the deer migration later in the season. One year the deer migration was...

    hiking vs jogging to prepare

    I’d start hiking the ridge almost on a daily basis with yer pack and some weight. Get to 30lbs a couple weeks before you leave. Start adding in plyometrics and calf raises and you’ll be in good shape...
