    Are we being realistic?

    There will be 5 for sure and possibly 6 of us making a trip to western Wyoming this fall. 2 of us have elk tags and the rest should draw general deer tags in the area with their points. This will be our 3rd trip to WY in as many years but the first time for a true backpack hunt. We had success...

    Altitude Advantage

    Anyone have any experience using Altitude Advantage from Wilderness Athlete? Since I live about as close to see level as you can get, I am thinking about trying it out on my elk hunt this fall. We will probably be around the 9-10.5K range but the elk will ultimately decide that. Vacation time...

    Hunt with my nephew

    I had the pleasure of being with my nephew this morning for his first buck. My brother is working 7/12's right now and could not hunt. Awesome kid and he has put a lot of time in this year. It finally came together on the last weekend he had to hunt.

    My daughter with her first

    They extended our youth hunt this year in La. to 1 week. Good thing for us. It's usually just a weekend but since I had to work the weekend, we didn't get to go. I was ready and waiting when she got off the bus yesterday afternoon. As soon as her homework was finished (my wife made us wait)...

    Refunds

    Does CO normally send a separate refund check for each species? I received my elk refund last week but nothing for deer. Was this a mistake or normal? I usually just put in for deer so I'm used to only getting one check.

    First trip success

    Well first of all I would like to thank all of you that helped me put this hunt together. First trip out west and this hunt most likely would not have been a success without the help of the people on this forum. Most of you know who your are but many may not even know how much you helped, so...

    Camping on BLM

    Has anyone ever experienced any problems with people stealing or messing with their camp while away hunting for antelope/mule deer for the day?

    Refunding tags

    We are planning a antelope/mule deer trip to WY this fall and I have a member of my hunting party that is uncertain of his work schedule in October. Basically he may be able to take vacation or he may not, depending on decisions the company makes in the next couple months. Can he still apply...

    Application question

    I am applying for antelope in WY and was wondering if you can combine a full price license and a reduced price license in the same choice? Or does my type 1 or 2 license have to be my first choice and type 6 or 7 my second choice? Basically I would like to apply for a buck and a doe tag in my...

    Changed my mind

    Was planning on trying to draw a muley tag in CO this year or hunt elk OTC if we didn't draw. But now we have decided to apply for antelope in WY 106 with 2 points. Might be able to pull these tags in the special draw. Also want to apply 2nd choice region E for mule deer and save our points...

    The North Face Snow Leopard

    I was wondering if any of you guys have this sleeping bag or know much about it? Its a good bit cheaper than the marmot, BA and WM bags I was looking at. It's pretty heavy at 4lbs but I think i can handle that weight and still make my benchmark. It also has a synthetic fill instead of down...

    Another newbie!

    Hello guys and gals, I have been a Eastmans subscriber for a couple years now but brand new to the forum. I am from Louisiana and been dreaming of making a trip west for as long as I can remember. Only big game I have ever hunted is whitetail here in LA for about 20 years and a trip each of...
