    Cougar Rifle?

    Have a .243 win, and 300 mag, this is mostly hypothetical at the moment but do plan to hunt cougar sooner than later, and well any excuse for a new rifle isn't a bad reason right? Had planned to pick up a 270 or 280 type rifle eventually, and or possibly a 7mm-08. I have been thinking less...

    Colorado, to build points for Moose, Sheep, Goat? 0 currently.

    since CO doesn't take CC from non-res for S,M,G, for the first year in a while I have the ability to appy for 1-3 of these species and start building points. I kind of just assumed I'd hunt them in other states, since I have about 10pts for them in most of the other states. However I know CO...

    Bison, Big Bull vs. Tasty Cow?

    Which would you rather hunt/get? A big bull trophy, and wall mount? or a tasty cow and small head for the wall? Many of these free range hunts are once in a lifetime, so it's an either or, not both. I bet on some of these ranch hunts one could hunt a bull and trade out for some cow meat...

    WY, Goat Moose Sheep? Once in a lifetime?

    After a quick search I could not find any info on whether or not one could draw more than once goat, moose, or sheep tag in a lifetime in WY?

    Draw Tag.... General Formula for Guide/outiffter cost?

    Does anyone have a general idea what it would cost to get a guide/outfitter once you draw a certain tag? I'm sure there are many ins and outs with this. Like quality tag.... public land vs. private. Just seems like elk hunts are 2 options if guided/outfitted, expensive and really expensive...

    Bad / (good) hit and run!

    Got slammed by a drunk driver presumably early sat morning. I was going the speed limit of 60mph when out of nowhere this suv nails me from the back/side, estimate his speed was 70-100mph. His headlights went from visible to on me in what seemed like 2 seconds, and right as I'm saying to...

    EXTEND the MT Mule Deer Season by 1 week...

    I would like to see MT extend the mule deer season. Rather than ending the 1st Sunday after thanksgiving, I think the 2nd Sunday after thanksgiving would make much more sense. Not to mention the added $$$ revenue the state would see. The non-resident does not want to miss thanksgiving with...
