Do you use a stabilizer? Choose all that apply for you.

To wear or not to wear in snake country? also can't you get bit in the foot if only wearing gaiters/chaps? a snake pistol would be a nice addition, but I think I might almost feel "invincible" if I were wearing snake boots, like go ahead, bite my boot... is a rattler gonna bite above the...

may be public/private in 50/501, it's a maybe so far. also possibly units 8 or 191 near red feather lakes? this would be public only. I haven't been able to find much about them. It says elk isn't OTC which makes me wonder how many are even there? if any? Mule deer would be the focus...

Archery or Rifle is an option. Think I would prefer a rifle for mulies, but I'm open to encouragement and suggestions. Have 6pts in many states. Where would you go? A trophy mulie is the goal, 4x4 170"+ top thoughts off the top of my head would be to just buy a landowner tag in CO, or...

True statement? What do you say? If you want a trophy elk, 6x6 300"+ is CO near the bottom of your elk states list? Feel free to include some colorado elk sayings too. "In colorado we don't have elk, we have elk hunters" "The orange army"

I know whitetails but not elk... How old is a mature elk? What is the general rate of growth? ie.. a spike? is how old? then next year he'll be a what? 3x3? how old is a 4x4? 5x5? how old is a 6x6 300-320" elk? a 350"? let's not talk exceptions to rules here, but in general/decent/good...

Which of the NA Sheep do you want to hunt most? Desert BH Rocky Mountain BH/California BH Stone Dall Have to pick 1 of these 4 and can't pick for financial reasons, have to pick the one you want to hunt the most.

I can't help but correlate sports to hunting, particularly mental toughness. Spring turkey got the best of me this season, I gave up before the hunt was over and of course I went home empty handed. I remember reading an article once that you have to expect good things, ie that 6x6 elk is going...

When do NM refunds go out? my draw is over... anyone know? I'm waiting on $3k for desert bighorn sheep...

6th time's the charm for me! CO/CO/NM/MT/MT....MT! 3rd time's the charm for my father! NM/MT....MT! this will be both of ours first elk, and with the bow none the less! just getting the positivity started early! should start shooting the bow more often now that I think of it! how awesome...

I believe something like 1200 tags is issued for either my unit/season in the breaks for elk archery. The season is from 9/1 to 10/14. Wouldn't everyone benefit from splitting this entire season into sections kind of like NM does with their archery elk tags/seasons in the Gila/archery? They...

Hurry up NM, I can't wait to find out my dad and I drew our desert sheep tags! This is the year!

Any surprise? Are hunters voting with their wallets? ie..not willing to pay higher prices for the elk combo and big game combo tags? I wonder if prices will be any lower next year? if so I doubt by much.

Which animals have you shot with the classic 375 H&H? (other .375's could be included, say which one if not the H&H) include the bullet weight, animal, and result, ie...bang flop, 1 shot, 3shots, lost.

Do you have any of your own particular hunting goals? Do you have any deadlines to accomplish these goals? A few of my own I can think of off the top of my head are; 3 antelope, 1 from each of the trophy hot spots in the US in my eyes, Wyoming, (NV/OR/CA region), and the AZ/NM. 1 down, 2 to...

Let's rank the best goat states in the lower 48, I'm not even sure of all the states that have mtn goats/huntable populations? I almost never read anything on goats in the lower 48 other than this state has them, and here are the units. Perhaps none of the states really stand out over the...

I have 1 point for sheep, and everything I'm reading lately is of the horrible odds in WA and don't apply. I think I saw odds at 1 in 2500, and if that's just # of applicants and not referring to bonus points, true odds could be even worse!? How is the trophy potential? What's max points for...

I'm wondering the trophy potential in the best WY antelope units? I probably will be building points for a few years to come and won't be back to WY for antelope again for quite some time, so I'm considering putting in for the best units, top 3 units perhaps. I'm wondering what could a guy...

Why on earth did MT do this to us? MT why don't you fix your problems before you start creating more! I'm guessing so MT residents can draw more tags more easily.
