    Lol, I'm not holding out hope for anything in NV, with my 0.001% odds! What/where are you looking for turkey info? I can help you with anything you need in Missouri and Kansas.

    2020 goals/desires

    My goal this year is to try to shoot a 300" bull. I have the points to draw a tag in Colorado - still trying to figure out exactly what I want out of the hunt, and where i want to go.. I'll also throw in some longshot attempts at AZ, NM, NV, UT and WY, and hope to get lucky. I normally take 2...

    More Colorado archery OTC units to move to draw only

    I'd support that. I'm guessing that there'd be little to no point creep, at least for quite a while, in most of those units. There's still quite a few units that are currently draw units that either go to leftovers, or only need a point to draw now.

    Something more to ponder during application periods

    $15 app fee for a 3-5% random chance of drawing a tag isnt really all that bad, you can buy a lot of raffle tickets for more money and worse odds.. I had 8 points and paid the special tag price to hunt elk in WY 2 years ago. Worth every single penny. I'll do it again, if they'll have me.

    Decided on Caliber - Now need to decide on Rifle

    Agree here, I recently bought the Ridgeline, seems to be a really nice rifle, not sure it's worth $600 more than the Mesa. I really liked the Mesa when I handled it, actually wish I would have bought it instead. If I didn't go Christensen, I'd go Weatherby.

    12 elk points. which unit?

    38 would be a really fun archery tag to have. I drove through the unit in the middle of the night, on my way home from my elk hunt a few years ago. Was shocked at the number of elk I saw. Lots of BIG bulls, herding their cows up and down the highway, and right of the roads. I'd love to have...

    WYOMING UNIT 75

    I hunted it a few years ago. Undecided on whether or not I’ll hunt it again. Not sure how good your chances are of shooting a big buck, but I was there the last week of the season, hunted for about 5 days, literally never saw another hunter. Shoot me a pm, I’ll share what I can.

    Idaho OTC

    I think my real point here, is that these particular units are already CAPPED. No more or no fewer guys (especially non residents) are going to hunt here. I simply think that a more fair allocation of these tags is a better approach. Rather than having 10,000 people crash a system, vying for...

    Something more to ponder during application periods

    While I much prefer to get the full allotment of non resident tags, and appreciate the later draw date to obtain those tags, I find it very annoying that the application deadline was not also moved back. Keeping peoples money for over four months is inconsiderate at best.. That being said...

    Looking to trade some whitetail information

    Are you committed to the early muzzleloader season? Are you looking for private ground, or are you sticking to state ground and WIHA's? The deer will be on the beans and alfalfa during that early muzzle loader hunt. Scouting that in January will be tricky. I'd want to know was going to be in...

    Idaho OTC

    They're certainly a good value!

    Idaho OTC

    Not all, just the couple that sell out in 4 hours every year..

    A good book

    I accidentally ready the opening few lines of The Stand again, a few weeks ago... Then, accidentally re-read the entire book, it is excellent. I think I may have enjoyed Swan Song better than the Stand, not sure. I'll have to check out Fire. I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned it, but the 3...

    Idaho OTC

    I wasn't in the market for an Idaho capped OTC tag this year, but follow along anyways. I see a few of the capped zones sold out in a matter of hours yet again. As much as I hate to see more tags go into a draw, it may be time for Idaho to move some of these capped OTC tags into a draw...

    Oh yes! I’ve been trying to get ivorytip to come down for a few years now!

    Need an Eastern Bird towards my slam

    Go to Kansas, hunt a WIHA. You'll have Rios in the far western and southern portions of the state. Everything east of Hays or so will be Easterns. I'm from Missouri, and have great ground here to hunt, but I'd rather hunt some of the WIHA's in Kansas than I would some of my own private access...
