    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.

    Draw Results

    TIC TIC....TIC....TIC. I should be on board for an antelope tag, but I have been in the "sure to draw" column a number of times in the past and ended up butt bit. So, good luck to all, and to me also.

    Big Whitetail From Illinois in Basement over 30YRS

    Odd timing, but my sister just called me from So. Carolina asking if I wanted a Boone & Crocket white-tail rack. A widowed friend of hers has inherited it after the family member who had it in his basement for years had passed on. I was offered the rack because no one else wanted it. Family...

    Hey there Marcus. I should have a couple hunts in WY this year, and am only waiting on the antelope draw next week. I just returned from a fly-in fishing trip out of Armstrong Ontario, and though we had mostly crappy weather all week, the fishing for northerns and walleyes was off the charts...

    Wy general elk tag

    I used my points to full effect in 2022, so after buying a point this year will be chasing the dog's tail with 2 points. Fortunately, my hunting partner will have 8 pts. going into next years draw, giving us a 5 avg. The NR GEN area W was 100% with 5 pts., so barring too big a jump, we may...

    Elk Results

    Tick, Tick, Tick. I much preferred it when the results were out in Feb. It allowed for other options/applications in other states. But, I have to say that this later drawing makes much more sense from a management perspective. I'm only in for a type 6 (cow/calf) tag. I may get one more GEN...

    Region H WY deer 2024??

    I have hunted H 5 times as a NR since 2009. Twice guided, and 3x DIY. I saw quite a few bucks, and shot some decent 4x4s, but had decided that I made my last hunt there after the last trip in, mostly due to my age (71), and the increasing impact of competition with other hunters. I spent 6...

    Pistol case - harbor freight

    Buy one if it makes you feel good, but look for the "Made in China" sticker. I admit to buying some stuff at HF, but now try my best to support products made in the U.S.

    Where would you move to if you had your choice of any western State to live in?

    I agree with you totally CC....land and home prices are completely nutso everywhere. The affordable RE taxes that you pay will be significantly higher for whoever buys your estate and establishes a new "value". I bought raw land on a lake for $10K in 1989, and built everything myself, but...

    Ultimate sheep or backcountry rifle set up.

    I am totally in agreement with CC....though I will likely not be buying any more rifles at this stage of my life. If I were, I would give serious to the 6.5PRC in a Savage 110 Ultralight. I'm not sure if they come with a threaded barrel.
