Must be nice, its already 94 down at lunchtime and heat index will be up near 115 today.

Has anyone here tried the Grizzly stik 650 arrows? Sounds like an interesting concept, I’m considering trying it for my Wyoming elk hunt this year.

It’s never premature!

My group drew general tags with 3.25 points, headed up for archery in September!

I’m guessing they already put my name on a sheep tag, but I’ll wait until Wednesday to put in my vacation dates.

Never tried Diamox, but I spend 49 weeks/year at home less than 1000’ above sea level and often very hot and humid. I Spend 2-3 weeks/year between 9000’ and 12,000’ in CO for the last 15 years. If I can stay hydrated I do very well hiking/hunting/biking for a chubby 41 year old. If I can...

At home I’m Medium rare on beef, closer to rare on grilled venison. In camp often the same steak can be all 5...

This year I put in for deer, elk and antelope in New Mexico, elk and sheep in Nevada, general elk in Wyoming and points everywhere else. I drew my third choice deer in NM, struck out on everything else. I expect to draw Wyoming general elk. My research for most units was a combination of...

Two trips could be a possibility, depending on how much (if any) vacation I use up this summer. Another thing that has come to mind is all the talk about a second wave of the Corona virus breaking out in the fall. Who knows if that will happen but if it does I would bet it will effect the...

Wow, that’s a great collection you have there! Thanks for sharing!

I’ve packed on a few Corona pounds the last two months. Time to start getting back in shape. Did 500 lunges in sets of 25 and sets of 50 over a 3 mile fast walk Monday. Jogged 1.5 miles yesterday evening and walked another 1.5 miles. A bit sore sore today. Upper body this evening &...

Thanks, we’ve killed a few elk in heavily pressured Colorado OTC units, all 2-3 miles in and 1500’ or more up from the trailhead. Sounds like WY general will be similar to escape crowds. One thing I’m sure of is we’ll have a great time; elk or not!

That’s funny stuff. I’m not a fan of electric fences, when I was a kid my grandpa rigged one up to some sheet metal to keep the raccoons out of a big peach tree. After feeding cows one rainy day I walked up and touched it, told my dad and grandpa it wasn’t working. Dad walked and put his...

That’s my concern, with archery being highly dependent on calling elk in, is archery worth the effort in a general unit if you can’t hunt the wilderness areas?

I fully understand it’s a general tag and there will be some pressure, my frame of reference for “high hunting pressure” is OTC Colorado units which can be a real zoo, though we have had success.
