    On my previous elk hunts, my group of hunters has always agreed to evenly distribute meat between everyone in the group. If 6 of us go out and we harvest 3 elk, everyone gets a half of an elk for the freezer. I'm curious to hear if many more guys split up their meat and how they go about it. I...

    Nasty Weather

    Southern Wyoming really got pounded with snow the last 36 hours according to the news. The interstate is still closed. This is really bad news for all big game in the region as this is the time of year animals are weak from winter and many new fawns and calves are born. Hope it isn't as bad...
