    November/December issue of Bugle Magazine

    I found my copy in the mailbox yesterday. Good hunting Scott. I shot a spike with my crossbow in Wyoming in 2022, and it was without a doubt the best eating elk that I have ever killed. You will love every bite.

    Broken Stuff

    Well the travel part of my antelope hunt turned into an absolute shit show. Only 50 miles from home (for a 2,200 mile round trip), I hit a hard rubble spot coming out of a tunnel in a construction area. The rear axel on my trailer broke completely off and it bounced into the other lane on the...

    2024 Hunting With Heroes Wyoming Antelope

    Woah!! That second angle shows just about everything. It looks like besides some great genetics, there was good winter growth for the uppers and spring growth for the bases. Pronghorn are a unique animal, especially their "horns". You really should consider having a shoulder mount made, but...

    2024 Hunting With Heroes Wyoming Antelope

    I agree with the gallery..that is an excellent pronghorn. My hunting partner would be elated if he can get one like yours.

    Broken Stuff

    I get you C.C. I just brought my snowmobile trailer to my 85 year old mechanic to replace the hubs. It is getting almost impossible to find people who can still fix stuff, especially appliances.....throw it away and get a new one (that doesn't last.) Now my John Deere tractor has a fuel...

    Broken Stuff

    Good score on the freezer Jim. I looked at replacing mine a couple years ago when I had two elk tags. I can check to freezer daily when I am home, but hate to risk losing everything if the 36 year old unit were to crap out while we are gone. I have had some bad experiences with some of the...

    Beautiful pronghorn. The rifle season starts early in Nevada.

    Wyoming taxidermist

    You guys got it right...since antelope aren't cervids, CWD is not a concern and their import is not banned in MN. Also, I got the updated rules from the MN DNR and the taxidermist that cervid intact skulls may be brought into the state as long as they are brought to a taxidermist within 48...

    Thanks everyone for the input. I will check with my local taxi about the antelope rules.

    Wyoming taxidermist

    Any recommendations on an eastern Wyoming taxidermist. Two of us will be hunting south of Tensleep for antelope, and we are not allowed to being intact skulls back to MN. I have a good antelope mount already, and don't plan on another one, but my partner would like to get a shoulder mount...

    Who else is...

    I just returned from my 9 day canoe trip in the Quetico Wilderness of Ontario. 113 miles of paddling and portaging. OOF DAH!!! This trip was very difficult for me, and I think that it may well be my last one. I am in good shape and did about as much prep as possible, but the years are...

    Who else is...

    I've picked up the pace after returning home a couple weeks ago, and was able to shed the few pounds that I gained while traveling. The AM exercises and hour in the kayak, followed by getting chores done have prepped me pretty well for the upcoming canoe trip. I almost screwed it all up...

    High Mountain Lake Trout

    Nice lakers Slugz. I've caught a lot of them out of a canoe on Siskowet Lake on Isle Royale National Park. Folks who say that they don't give you much of a fight have never caught them out of a small boat using light tackle. Fine dining too. Is that a Pak boat?

    Who else is...

    I have been walking quite a bit while visiting my wife's relatives in Washington state. Back home, the catch-up chores have kept me busy, but am still making time for a regular routine of morning exercises. I am guiding a 10 day canoe trip in Ontario's Quetico wilderness at the end of the...

    Draw Results

    WY had the elk draw results posted at 5:30am (CST) on the stated release date (May 15th), so my guess is that they will follow suit for the deer/antelope draw on June 18th. Don't tell my wife, but I delayed a family trip so that I can get the results before we leave.
