Due to the drought they are reducing tags in both of the units that have bison. They had a OTC tag in a unit where bison would migrate off of the Ute Tribal lands but the Ute Tribe has now installed a fence to keep them on their lands so that hunt might not even happen this year.

If you haven't been applying in multiple states for their OIL tags you might as well consider yourself out of luck for drawing a second one when you are starting at the bottom I have 24 Utah bison prints and am 68 years old and my chances of drawing are quite slim. But even if I draw this year...

I used to go through quite a bit. A elk would last a year with a deer thrown in along with ducks geese, upland birds and rabbits. The last dozen or more years a elk will last 2 or 3 years. I have deer from 3 years ago. A lot of it gets ground up for jerky. Anymore I am picky on what animals...

You will always find that a small group of vocal people who want a law passed or thing allowed will get their way before the silent majority will. Not saying that is what happened here but it happens every day.

Here is what I get to pick from:  1x Kudu  1x Gemsbuck  1x Blue -or- Black Wildebeest  1x Impala  1x Blesbuck  1x Duiker  1x Warthog  1x Cull Impala  1x Cull Blesbuck  Choose 3: Baboon, Jackal, Bushbuck, Mountain Reedbuck, Male -or- Female White Blesbuck, Ostrich, Cape Springbuck or...

Skulls and capes need to go through different processes. Skulls would need to be pretty much a finished euro with nothing left attached to it. Also since all African plains animals have horns and not antlers they also have to be processed. Capes get what is called dipped and packed, this is...

It's been that way for a long time. Just as a reference my African hunt this June is a 10 day hunt for 12 animals for $6400 Airfare $2000 Tips + - $1700, $100 day for the PH and $700 for camp staff and your tracker/skinner I'm using a pre approved rifle importing service with a meet and greet...

Outfitted hunts like everything are going up. The price of fuel for the outfitter to get out and scout, along with food prices to feed you on the hunt are up along with what they have to pay their help. Any sheep hunt has been out of my price range for a very long time.

Just about anywhere you have a contest where the entrant is on their honor and there is money or large prizes concerned you will have people trying to cheat the system. In Utah all the major sporting goods stores used to run big buck contest, and there was corruption in every one of them by...

That's sounds like standard practice on not giving a deposit back on something out of their controll and it sounds like they offered that you could use it in the future. I'm going to Africa in June and the first thing that I purchased after getting my airfare was trip insurance. Now if...

Go on over to the Arizona G&F site and sign up for a Portal Account. Then you can look and see what points you have left and decide if you want to continue on with them.

I've heard that roadrunner drumsticks are delicious

I've gotten to the point that all of the grind meat that I have off of wild game goes to jerky. I'll save the back straps for savory dinners but all the rest gets ground. Somehow that jerky disappears quite quickly between me and my friends..

Welcome to the site. Let us know where you are from along with where you plan to hunt. There is a lot of great knowledge on the site here and while most of it is for the sweater states we have quite a few from the east.

But then wouldn't the states laws apply as far as hunting time after a flight? I once read that you need to be able to occupy the area above your property before you can call trespassing over your property. Look at all the commercial airlines that cross over it every day. Granted you may not...

I gave up on that northwest corner 8 years ago when I realized that even being a resident I would have to wait another dozen or so years and that was when I had 17 elk points.

I drove past the FS office down in Glenwood Springs yesterday and they still have their covid signs on the doors. It has been interesting in dealing with governments during the last two years. I had to get my CC renewed last year and when I went in for a new picture and to drop off my...
