Anybody ever hunted blacktails way up in NW Oregon near Astoria? I guess this would be area 10 Saddle Mountain. I am interested in what quality of deer are in the area and what type of terrain is typical. I am an avid hunter from Iowa. Always wanted a Blacktail and just got wind from a friend...

I see G&F had their meetings to define quotas. Anybody know when they will be published? Before or after the application deadline May 31st?

Just want to verify I am doing this right. Just upgraded from an old analog to a Kestrel 2000. Not really a gun & ammo item, but I plan on using this for long range shooting. You need to hold the Kestrel with screen facing you but, with your face pointing directly into the wind. Is that...

Anticipating an 80" speed goat falls to my bullet this fall... Who do you all recommend for high end pronghorn taxidermy? My local taxidermist who did my last antelope is no longer taking new work I believe. Just exploring new options...

Anybody have one of these bags and how do you like it? What temps have you used it to and how did it perform. Have found a decent deal on one of these, and the performance on paper looks tough to be @ 2lbs10oz and a Sub $200 price.

Any body have PDF files of the regs with quotas for say the last 5 years for Wyoming antelope? Trying to plan a hunt/draw for this fall and would like to study the quota trends, other than the face that quotas are 'down'. Please drop me a PM if you happen to have them. Thanks.

I am looking for First Lite, Kuiu, Kifaru etc. type brands, and want to know where everybody goes to do their shopping and buying? Does Cabelas or Bass Pro have anything in store to try on? In particular I am looking for a First Lite Uncompahgre Puffy Jacket, XL, Realtree Max-1. Nowhere online...

Would like to get one of these puffy jackets, but have heard sizes run on the big side. I am stocky 5'10" 250#. I have read of guys 5'6" 240# wearing a large FL puffy. I am thinking XLarge, but would like some recommendations. Thanks

Are there specific units in Wyoming where antelope either move OUT or INTO during the October winter migrations? Looking to try somewhere new this fall, but don't want to pick a unit that has very few antelope remaining because they all went somewhere else. Would love to find a spot where they...

We hunted pronghorns in 47 in 2013. All 4 were successful with the best goats around 70". The drought was in full swing and we were just learning how to hunt them. We are planning to apply again this year, but its a whole new ball game as far as drawing odds go. Not only are quotas down for the...

Looking at Wyoming G&F webpage this morning. Is the deadline for non resident antelope applications really May 31 this year? I was thinking it was about March 15th when we applied in 2013.

Needing a new quality hunting pack, but these babies are not cheap! Want to make the right to choice the first time and end up with a back that will last a loooong time. Will be antelope hunting in 2015 (hopefully) and high country mule deer in 2017 or 18. I can see an elk in the future, maybe...

I pronghorn hunted south of Casper in 2013 with my dad, a buddy and his dad. We researched the units history and were pretty much guaranteed to draw the unit of choice with 1PP and the special pool. We easily drew and all harvested decent bucks. We took 2014 off in order to gain our 1PP again...

So here is a dumb question, how does one attempt to draw a lesser unit without using accumulated preference points? Do you leave the first choice blank and only fill in second choice? Collecting points for a western Wyoming high country deer hunt in 17 or 18. Pretty 'green' in the realm of...

Anybody on here ever hunt Region J for muleys in SE Wyoming? In particular, I am looking at the Medicine Bow National Forest areas of units 65, 64 and 73. Id be interested in hearing information regarding populations, access to the forest, success stories, terrain type etc. Considering...

Does anybody have the full list of what left over deer tags were available in Wyoming this year?

Why doesn't Savage make the 'long range hunter" in 7WSM? Would a 7 Rem Mag be a good substitute in the LRH? Anybody ever converted a 300WSM LRH to a 7WSM?

Looking for some insight regarding areas around Casper for possible mule deer opportunities in 2015. I am talking about things like general areas to consider, are there OTC or leftover buck tags available, whats the hunting pressure like... Maybe Regions E, B, D or J. We will be pronghorn...

Does anybody know if these offset inserts are made for 30mm scope tubes? I am seeing conflicting info on the MidwayUSA.com item listing. Desciption says not available for 30mm rings, tech specs says they come with inserts. Also, anybody have experience with Burris dovetail rings in std bases...

Anybody have, or know where I can find, a 1903 Springfield action that i can use as a donor for a nostalgic custom rifle build project? I need a safe action, meaning either double heat treated or nickel steel version. High numbered Springfield Armory, Rock Island Arsenal or Remington version...
