    Fishing SE WY

    Me and a buddy are headed to the Snowys in a couple weeks. We are backpacking and will be bringing our fly rods. Any Alpine lakes you recommend we hike to and fish? We are also going down into Saratoga to soak in the hot springs a couple times during the trip so we thought about fishing the...

    WY RP cow elk ?

    I tried for the 12-6 tag a little bit ago and they went fast, so I failed to get one. I was looking at the 37-6 left over tag. My questions are; In the WY G&F guide it list a * beside the 37-6 tag, why is that? There is a lot of NF land and only one corner of it is wilderness. Since the cow...

    Nice TN buck

    Just finished up this deer yesterday. He is a late October buck with a gorgeous cape and sweet rack. If I remember the story correctly; the hunters that brought him to me shot him on a Saturday morning but lost trail of him by mid morning. They called in a dog from KY and later that afternoon...

    AZ left over ??

    If I am able to purchase a leftover AZ gun deer tag will I loose my preference points? From my understanding I will but will NOT loose them if I purchase a OTC archery tag.

    Should I start applying???

    I am thinking about applying for UT, elk and deer. I know my chances of drawing a decent unit are very slim and I will be way behind on PP's. However, my thinking is that many years down the road I will have more money set aside for hunting and thought about trying to get good tags and using a...

    Whitetail in backyard, daughter goes for a ride!

    Check out this TN whitetail "hanging" out in the backyard. My daughter took advantage of the opportunity and hoped on, since she didn't like her first Santa visit I thought this was only fitting. Haha, this is a mount I just completed. It is a hard left turn wall pedestal, it really...

    SE Montana mule deer success

    Just got back and had a great trip! My grandfather killed his first mule deer and I tagged out on a nice buck too. The weather was brutal and we got hit with snow in Mitchell, SD on I-90 and had to travel 400 miles West in those conditions. The weather really made for a true adventure and added...

    GoPro3+ Black, First time lapse/taxidermy

    I purchased a GoPro3+ Black edition a few weeks ago. Right out of the bag I decided to try the time lapse feature while I was working on a deer. I used 5mp and 5 second intervals. I simply uploaded it to the GoPro studio and did 24fps output for the images. My battery died (forgot to charge...

    Tent, bivy sack or hammock?

    A hammock with a down underquilt and rainfly is nice if you have something to hang from, super comfortable, quick and easy to set up/tear down. They have their pros and cons, but they do have a place in your camping arsenal and once you learn to lay in them they are super comfortable, much so...

    Parking on a Interstate/Hwy, WY specific

    Logically I assume it is illegal to park on the Interstate to access public land, although I have been searching the WY laws and their "rules of the road" booklet with no luck finding a definite answer. One law enforcement person said they do not enforce such things and I have not contacted the...
