    Let the gov't goat slaughter begin!

    From my talks with the main biologists when i checked my goat in, most the goats inside the park, never leave the park. The stay there all winter in deep snow etc. So the ones getting shot in the main areas inside the park are most likely ones that would never set foot into the hunting area...

    Let the gov't goat slaughter begin!

    They are trying to allow hunters to be part of this, but couldn't get any legislation passed for this year for that to happen. The game and fish has pushed hard for the national park to allow hunters to be in this. But it's not their world so they get no official say. Wygf gave away 48 new...

    2019 season

    I should also include my good friend/ roommate and his giant general tag bull taken on a solo morning hunt in the national forest. And yes that's an 11" dropper. Needless to say, our house is filling up fast. Dining room might become game room. Not a bad problem to have though

    2019 season

    Quick photo recap of my season so far. Archery mountain goat in August, connected on one of my top 3 scouted bucks in September, and my late season wilderness elk hunt ended in the bull of my dreams. All hunts wilderness, DIY. I still have a late season December Idaho bull tag that I'll try to...

    Crispi or kennatrec?

    I cant complain about any kenetreks ive owned over the years. That being said, ive been wearing Crispi boots for the past 3 seasons and have no plans to change brands. Top notch in all versions ive tried, both non insulated and insulated.

    Altitude Sickness- who has gotten it?

    Ive seen it numerous times. Twice in severe circumstance. 1 was a pack trip guest who had never been above sea level in life basically and flew in day before and was at 8000' by that night after 7 hours horseback. I noticed the signs quickly as her headache grew immensely and fast, and by day 2...

Went into it hoping to harvest a mature Billy as the biologists said would be very hard to do, so im very happy to have accomplished my...

    Elk units 86, 92, 94

    I think your data on 86 is a bit off... Cliff creek area is loaded with trucks and trailers all summer and fall long. Non stop people. Horses, trucks and 5th wheelers you name it they are plentiful in there. You can get away from people, but you would need to go more than a couple miles

    What Makes A Big Mule Deer?????

    Big is big.. you know it when you see them. I am a big fan of big framed deer. I don't care if they are 30"+ width or 26".. I've seen big deer that are both. But for me, like mentioned above, it's the WOW factor that means the most to me over score. But i do prefer to let 180" deer grow if they...

    Preliminary reports aren't good...

    Preliminary reports of the brutal winter effects on the mule deer in western Wyoming are starting to unfortunately come to truth like I have been expecting. I only think it will get worse the more we see the results. People who think older bucks are the ones who survive seem to forget that the...

    Wyoming wolves finally!!

    Today is a great day! US district court of appeals overruled the previous ruling from 5 years ago. We will be hunting wolves again in Wyoming soon hopefully!! https://www.cadc.uscourts.gov/internet/opinions.nsf/E2381C96826F09F4852580D80057B29F/$file/14-5300-1664135.pdf Sent from my SM-G930V...
