Apparently the Feds and GTNP don't give a crap about hunting ethics, game management or the WGFD. For years they've fought the WGFD and resident hunters on the "elk reduction program" as well. They conveniently use the term "invasive species" to describe mountain goats, an animal that lives in...

I hear what your saying but they managed to net sheep from helicopters in the same area in the last couple of years.

Or relocate them.

Tomorrow, Grand Teton Nat'l Park will start the gunning of mountain goats from helicopters in an effort to completely eradicate all of the goats within the park. They consider the goats to be an invasive species and a threat to the struggling bighorn sheep population. I sure wish they had that...

You only live once....I think. I'm here for the hunting (definitely not the money) but I'd never leave. As my dad always said, "I wasn't born here but I got here as fast as I could." I guess the wind can be pretty bad in some parts of Wyoming but not everywhere. Winters can be really long and...

There's not enough information in that article for me to make a judgement.

My dad had neck surgery in the 1980's and it has bothered him ever since, he's now 85. He killed his first moose at 80. It is also his only B&C animal. I just got back from fishing in Alaska and one fella was 85 years young and planning his next trip in 2020. I'd say you're not done yet.

Just wondering if anyone might have some general pointers for area 34 deer. My daughter drew a tag but I've never stepped foot in that area and don't know squat about it. I'd just like to find her a nice 4 point, not looking for a monster. She's in college at Laramie so we're probably only...

We had a huge amount of snow in February in the Greys River area of Western WYO. This was what we still had in my yard last week before I left for a job Iowa where the weather here is in the 70's! I'm worried about the deer...again.

I shot this character this afternoon.

They are definitely open on the weekends. If no one is there call the after hours number on the door and someone will probably be there in 5 minutes. We're picking up my daughter's elk from them tonight.

Thanks WY-Tex Jason House (Creations In Antlers) in Greybull, WY did 2 elk and one bear skull for me. He's good. The antler has a copper coating that is then acid washed in the crevices for greenish highlights.

I don't get much shoulder mounted anymore because of the expense and amount of space they take up. My favorite skull mount is my daughter's 7x8 elk that we had "copperized" (if there is such a word).

He was 411 4/8" gross. 392 3/8" net. I heard a few folks at the auction claim there was no way that bull scored over 400". I think just the pictures say otherwise. Here's the other side view. Here's another one that didn't make it through winter. He's 383 1/8" gross, 354 2/8 net...

Here's a big winter kill that the Boy Scouts picked up this spring on the Nat'l Elk Refuge. He's the biggest winter kill I've scored for them since helping them for about the last 15 years.
