    Sd ?

    So it appears you cannot purchase NR South Dakota deer points now without applying in the regular draws. Is this correct? I just went in to buy points and things have changed since last year. Guess I will call them tomorrow and see what I?m missing unless someone here can set me straight...

    Hammonds pardoned

    Thoughts? I believe a commuted sentence would have been more fitting, these fools still broke the law. Not to get to far down the legal lingo rabbit hole but will this pardon mean expunged records for the Hammonds? I read a article about the Mississippi Supreme Court upholding the refusal to...

    MT success % vs..

    ...Eastman?s MRS. I just spoke with a biologist in MT about some antelope units Ive been researching. One of the units that caught my attention has a success rate of 100%, of course that caught my attention. For the record, I did not use the MT hunt planner to verify but I did mention it to the...

    WY credit card survey

    Did anyone else receive it? Personally I?d rather not have to pay any extra to use my card so I voted for the choice of hitting our cards IF we draw (I guess like AZ). If that passes I wonder if more people will apply and hurt odds? I also like earning points on my card, so that?s a nice...

    6.5 points in WY

    Me and another member on here have been talking about cashing our WY pronghorn points in this year, or at least applying. Our average is 6.5, we have researched a few possible units. Scoured over the latest MRS and I even printed and highlighted the resident draw table to see what units are in...

    REI Magma 10 bag

    850 down bag weighing 1.14lbs and costing less than $275 right now for REI members ($350 regular price). This sounds like a sweet deal for a premium bag. Anyone have one or know much about it? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    WY Region Y or R?

    I have hunted Y a few times, with good success. This year I'm contemplating putting in for R, I have only spent a few hours driving the roads and a quick hiking trip in the Northern half. So if I go into R it will basically be a blind trip, versus Y I know pretty well and honestly I have only...

    SD deer and pronghorn

    Ever since my first Black Hills turkey hunt almost 4 years I became fascinated with that region of SD, I was also in awe of the number of whitetail I seen roaming those hills. Yearly I drive through the region on my way to WY or MT and keep thinking I need to try deer hunting there, so this...

    Help me with rifle research

    So Im just starting my research on light weight rifles. I really want to stay with a 7mm Rem Mag, which seems to be limiting my options. Price range is $1,500 which throws out the Ti. Kimber seems nice but not the caliber I want. Any recommendations? Im open for other calibers but this...

    Mule Deer Success Thread!

    SE Montana was produced a great buck for me this year, he is a tad shy of 170". His neck measured 28" at the swell and weighed a ton! This dude was huge and by far the largest deer I have seen in my short 2 years of hunting the area. Glassed him in a hay meadow and stalked in for a while on...

    My first AZ coues tag!

    Well its official, I received my AZ coues tag in the mail last week. It totally surprised me that I drew, had one bonus point and the odds were not good. I chose the area because there was a slight chance to draw in the random, lucky me! Anyways, hunt dates start Dec 11, area is 31 and its a...
