I know everyone has to apply for exactly the same animal & type, but I can't find anything about quantity. We are planning on type 6 Antelope tags, but one of us only want 1doe, the other 2 want 2 does. Can we apply together?

If you read my other post, you know I just got my Swaro back from repair. The shoulder harness is 12 years old and the elastic is shot.I am getting a new one and there are lots of them with a case attached. Who uses the case and do you like it? Seems like it would be a little clumsy to me. I...

I just received my Swaro Laser Guide range finder/bino combo back from repair. All that was wrong was a broken neck strap fitting. I have had these for about 10 years and have had no other problems with them . They also replaced the eye cup, receiver lens and various small parts and aligned the...

The story entitled "We are Trophy Hunters" n the latest February issue really got my blood boiling. The author Joe Coogan obviously has lots of Africa hunting ties. His whole story never once mentions the aspect of killing a game animal for eating purposes. All he talks about is horns, claws &...

We finally got some much needed snow. We got about 6" at my place (6800') and the local mountains got a lot more. I got to use the snow blade I bought for my Yamaha Rhino utv and it worked slick.

CNN has produced a new film called "Trophy" which according to their website is about trophy hunting. It premiers on Sunday January 14th on CNN. I can imagine what the message will be....ANTI HUNTING! According to their writeup and release on the film it is about trophy hunting in Africa for...

I just read the sticky and unfortunately the articles are not there. I am getting out of the dark ages and getting a smart phone, my current send/receive cell is being retired. What is suggested (smart phones) for the best picture quality?

Snowed a little last night, our first snow on this winter. Can't see the mountains, but I'm sure they got quite a bit. Need more for sure. Yes...Bigfoot was here too! LOL

Just got back from a quick road trip to Salt Lake City, Rawlings Cheyenne and Denver. My son relocated his trucking business from Denver to SLC and I helped him move some stuff. I have never seen it so dry in southern Wyoming and from Denver to Alamosa/Wolf Creek Pass. Almost no snow along I-80...

Been getting a lot of PMs from people not registered and no posts on the Forum asking for information. I usually won't give them anything until they are officially a Forum member and have introduced themselves. Even then I keep pretty closed mouth, it just kinda irritates me. Just wondering...

Just returned from a scouting trip for 4th season elk in SW Co & SE Ut. Condition have sure changed a lot since I was there in mid July. Most of the snow from a couple of weeks ago is gone and it is pretty dry. What is the most shocking thing is the lack of feed. Grass is gone, there are no...

5 years ago today, I lost my Dad. He was 94 and lived a full, productive life. I miss him a lot, especially in the fall during hunting seasons. We hunted and fished together all his life from Canada to Mexico. He taught me how to be a man and all of the values and responsibilities that came with...

I was just checking the published drawing odds listed for antelope (doe/fawn) on the Wyoming G & F website. I was really shocked at the number of tags listed as sold for the unit I want to hunt. here are the numbers: year-2010-200 tags;2011-287 tags; 2012-219 tags; 2013-5t tags; 2105-5 tags...

Been hunting Wyoming for years and have never done this: Apply for reduced price Doe/fawn antelope tags WITHOUT applying for a buck tag. I have always added them to my buck tag application. I know you can do it, but will they take my pref points that I have accumulated for antelope? I am...

Saw lots of hunters coming in the last few days. Today was opening of Archery and no one I know did much....too hot! It was 90 today and is forecast to be that or 88/90 all next week and just some clouds, no rain. Pretty damn hot here for sure!

I remember in high school science class we looked at the sun using exposed film. I got out some exposed 35mm film strips and doubled them up. WOW...really got a great view of the eclipse here in SW Colorado. Probably 80 to 85%, definitely got darker and cooler. Pretty cool..............

Don't know how many of you use Google earth for research, but some of my general observations. I do use it, but only for an overview of the country. I just got back from a scouting trip to a unit here in SW Colorado that I have never hunted or even been in before. I looked at Google Earth...

Just bought my point for deer and antelope, now have 12 for deer and 5 for antelope. I think I'll be able to get tags for both next year for a combo hunt. Been sitting on the deer points since the points started, so now I'll use them.

Here in SW Colorado our Monsoons have started. The last 4 days have had thunderstorms in the afternoons. Been pretty hot too, in the low 90's. We have had some isolated lightning strike fires too. One west of Durango (Leightner Creek area) was big enough to need a lot of manpower. I am going to...

Just found out a friend of mine's son drew a Unit 10 elk tag with 7 points. Obviously a hybrid tag, pays to apply!!! Lucky kid.
