    Back from Wyoming

    I got the rough score 1.5" short of 80. Still way more than I was expecting. After hunting out West I now find it hard to sit in a tree stand waiting on a deer for hours. I seem to day dream about when I can get back to chasing antelope.

    Back from Wyoming

    I will get up some photos when I get caught up at work. Just wanted to say what a great hunting experience I had. I had no idea just how many antelope there are. Me and my buddy filled 7 of 8 tags for a total of 28 hoofs and could of filled them all but I held out for a better mule deer and...

    I plan on making my first ever trip to Wyoming this fall? Never being with in 500 miles of the state before and never hunting out West in my life. I would like to know what the things I should be expected not to do or do as a visitor to the state. I know this may sound like a strange...

    Cow elk

    I would like to hunt elk once in my life. After looking at options and a limited budget. It appears a bull tag in a limited area is out of the question with no current points. At age 51 I do not think I want to get in that game. I am not willing to spend money on a outfitter for access to...

    Good public acess areas

    I have spent a lot of time studying the point and draw system of the desired public access lands of Wyoming(maybe to much). If you are a nonresident it does not look very good. This goes for elk, mule deer, and antelope. When you look at the total number of applicants with points. Some areas...

    Harvest sucess listed

    Just a question about harvest % listed on the hunting areas. Reading the other post. I see you do not have to check an antelope. If you drive by a check station it appears they do not record information. So how accurate are success % listed. I see it listed like this. Active hunters - Buck...

    Helicopter acess to BLM

    I was just wondering if you could use a helicopter to drop hunters onto land locked BLM lands. Fly in your camp set up and hunt and when your done have the helicopter come pick you up and fly you out. The reason I was wondering is the fees for access and guide fees are getting so high. I...

    Scouting from 1229 miles away

    Just like some of your thoughts. I am a long ways from Wyoming and the closest I have been is about 600 miles. To top that off I have never hunted out West. I have been hunting for years. I know nothing is as good as feet on the ground scouting. My problem is the cost of trying to fly to...
