    Screwed Up in Wyoming Last Years Draw

    I didn't think to ask but I an sure that the answer would be no. As to why they did it that way, they told me that people were getting confused. I guess that the other states just have confused applicants. But it could be the way that they sell points after the draws, you would think that...

    Screwed Up in Wyoming Last Years Draw

    So how many screwed up like I did last year with the Wyoming draw? I put in for a preference point draw for antelope and didn't see that they don't give out a preference point anymore for a unsuccessful draw. You have to purchase a PP even if you put in for the draw. So I missed out on a...

    Knight DISC

    For elk the only bullet I consider out of a muzzle loader is the 300 grain Thor. You start out with a sizing pack to determine the exact bore diameter. You can purchase the sizing pack from Thor or Muzzleloader.com if you want to go with them. On my ML elk hunt in 2014 I hit the elk 3 times...

    Demographics of Eastmans Hunting Forum

    Right now if a person had some disposal income they could quite possibly make a killing on the stock market. On a African hunting forum that I am on there is a whole thread of what stocks people are buying while they are so low.

    COLORADO MULE DEER

    21 is a totally migration hunt. If you go up there in the summer or early archery hunt odds are you will not find a deer in 90% of the unit. Last year the migration started late and the deer just were not down. I had planned on taking my brother in law over to the Utah side of the unit but he...

    COLORADO MULE DEER

    Either unit is fairly good however unit 40 has a lot of private and unless you have access to it you may be limited on where you go. 22 would be a better unit in my opinion, a lot more BLM land with good access.

    Help with unit

    There are area that 3rd is just as good as 4th. There are units such as 21 that don't have a 4th season since the rut usually kicks in during the 3rd if not the 2nd. Unit 21 has lots of public land and if you hit the migration at the right time there should be quite a few bucks. I hunted it...

    Help with unit

    A few years ago I would of said unit 44 but my home unit has lost a lot of deer over the last few years. And while there are still some great bucks to be hunted they are not here like they used to be. I will have a unit 44 muzzle loader tag for this year and my hopes are not that good of...

    The problem comes up when you run out of fingers and toes and then have to start counting in tens. I do know that when I get asked how old I am anymore it usually catches me by surprise and I have to think a while. One strange thing here in Colorado is that I picked up a 6 pack of beer a few...

    Help with unit

    What state and what weapon? I presume Colorado. Here in Colorado the units that used to be quite good are having problems with the mule deer right now as afar as populations are concerned

    280AI or 28 Nosler

    For me I would look at the ballistics of both and go from there. Either round should be capable of pushing a bullet to the range that you want. Usually the rifle is a personal preference
