I gave away a truck load of both deer and elk antlers to a so called friend who was going to make a couple of knifes for me, he was using them as handle material. Needless to say he moved back east and took the antlers with him and I still haven't received 1 knife and that was 25 years ago...

that post came out weird

Unless the OTC tag has a draw involved it doesn't come into play. Only if that tag was involved in a draw before it went to OTC. The only big game tag that is over the counter in Utah are archery elk, spike elk, and any bull elk tags, and they have caps. Everything else is through the draw.

Utah is setting it to where if you purchase a OTC tag for what a draw was involved then you loose them. Lets take archery buck deer for a example. There are a couple of units in Utah that always have left over tags after the draw, this is because the units are mostly private and getting...

Utah has points for everything that involves a draw. Most of the points are bonus points where there are a few that have preference points. I have always said that a person needs a lawyer in the family to explain all of the draws in the western states.

The nice thing about Colorado's points is that there are only animal specific points. Elk points are just elk points, bull or cow they are the same points. Utah on the other hand has both bonus points and preference points. Cow tags are separate from bull tags and doe points are separate...

A trick to use with any rangefinder if you are having problems locking onto the animal at extended ranges is to use a rock near the animal. It will reflect the laser easier than a animals hide will.

It would be nice if most of the states would standardize the hunter safety requirements. Here in Colorado if you were born before 1949 you are exempt, other states if you are older that 18 you are exempt, others say that you plain need it if you are under 18 or so but after that you don't...

Actually the hunt itself along with a few other animals is the cheap part. All of which can be done for less than $10,000. Most outfitters in South Africa have specials with up to 8 or so animals on the list and then you can do a alacart type where if you see a animal that you want to shoot...

I have a friend up in Wyoming who is going on 2600 lbs of meat through a $100 Northern Tool 1/2 hp grinder in 8 years.

On hunter safety I think that they should ban the parents from the classes and test, both the written and range ones. The kids will never learn if their parents are answering the questions and I saw one instance where they allowed a parent to actually do the range shooting for the kid. On a...

I would be looking at Leupold or Vortex for under a grand. $500 will get you a nice pair of either. Then I suppose that you would like to know the power, and on this I would suggest a pair of 10x42's which is the most popular. Stay away from compacts and ones that you need someone to pack for...

Nice going, those are a couple of nice bucks.

For units 22 and 21 the migration kicked in way late since there were no storms up high until the start of second season. From what I have heard it was a very weird year trying to get into animals. My brother in law did tag out in 21 but we saw very few bucks.
