    NR Antelope Tag and ATV regs

    Hey everyone... this is my first NV tag (Antelope 141, 143, 151-155) and I'm trying to find info on using my 4-wheeler during the hunt. Is there a required sticker or something for out of state ATV's in Nevada? I called fish and game and the gal that answered wasnt sure if I needed anything...

    Question on 900 series antelope tags

    Hey everyone! I'm looking for a backup plan for my son and I should we not draw any LE tags for antelope this year, and he would like to try MT for some archery goat. I have a couple questions though. First, with the Block Managment contracts/book not coming out until around the time the archery...

    Elite Energy 35

    Now I've done it. I went and tried the Elite Energy 35 before I pulled the string on upgrading to the new Prime Alloy... ooops, I guess I am going to have to get on the Elite bandwagon this year (One of the few bow companies I guess I haven't actually owned in the last 40 years). I have to say...

    Drew a tag... 6B

    My 15 year old son and I drew our 2nd choice, Archery Cow tag, for 6B. This is his first Elk bow hunt, he has killed one cow with a gun, so I am actually ok with the cow tag. It will be a great chance for him to get in the back country a bit with his bow, while we are still building points for a...

    Picked up my "Free" Rifle today...

    The Cabelas Card finally indicated enough points for a "Free" gun so I made my selection today. Savage Long Range Hunter in .300 Winny. I'm not usually a fan of being beat to death by "big calibers" (I know, call me a wuss) but I have been wanting to try the new Accubrake personally. I had...

    What to build, any ideas?

    So I have an "extra" Savage Weather Warrior in .243 (stainless, with accu-trigger and blind mag). I already have one in .243 (plus a .270 and a .300 win), that belongs to my son. This one is just taking up space, so I'm thinking I'll turn it in to something else. Any suggestions? I'm thinking a...

    Unit 27 Elk Question

    Anyone have an update on how unit 27 looks after the fires? Wondering if it's usual number one position on my Elk apps yet or if it is still to early for it to green up and return to it's former glory ...

    It's official!

    I posted this picture up on the Antelope forum back in September, but thought I would give a follow-up here. This was my son's first Antelope hunt, at 14 years old, and with 2 points we drew a tag in NW Wyoming. He shot this goat the second day. Well, yesterday the official B&C Scorer called and...

    2012 Antelope.... Son's first goat.

    We hung out a day waiting for our meat to freeze, so to pass the time we bought a Daily Upland bird license and did some Sage Grouse hunting with a 'friend of a friend and his dog'. Shot two each! All and all, an incredible hunt. It surpassed my wildest dreams. I dropped his Antelope off with...

    2012 Antelope.... Son's first goat.

    He shot my .270, which I don't think he plans on giving back! He also shot his first Elk (cow). We are driving home tonight, I promise a story of the hunt will follow. Until then... here is his cow (sorry it is a little bloody it was getting dark fast and I had to rush the pictures a bit), my...

    Legal CC permit holder gunned down by Costco employee.

    As much as I try to teach my kids to respect authoirty, it gets harder and harder these days. Should I teach them to be scared of the police? Should I teach them to be a lemming and let go of their rights? Or should I just roll the dice they don't one day get gunned down by some young punk...

    Any Season Deer

    So far the only tag I have drawn for this fall is an Multi Season Deer tag for WA, which I think pretty much anyone who applies draws with 8500 of them given. I haven't decided if I am picking it up. Anyone have any thoughts? What does it really get me for $183? I guess the selling feature is...

    Spring Bear 16A

    I didn't draw a bear tag in Wasington this year, Since I have already purchased the Idaho license in order to put in for the Elk/Deer/Antelope draw I was thinking for heading to over to try Spring Bear in Idaho. What is 16A like? It doesn't look like it is much wilderness. How much snow is over...

    12A and 12B

    I am a little behind in the points game, but have been putting in for Unit 12. I have an old photo of my grandfather hunting the Kaibab in the late 40's after he got back from WW2 and have always wanted to hunt there. I drove through in early September a few years ago, and hung out a day and...

    Anyone one shoot a new Hoyt Vector Turbo?

    Looks like a sweet rig! I am shooting last years G5 Prime Shift right now, and LOVE it, but the new Hoyt Vector Turbo looks like a VERY nice set up with a 35" axle to axle. I would be interested to hear some first hand reports. I broke (read that CRUSHED, plate and 9 pins to put it back...
