    Wyoming unit 17

    Finally drew an antelope tag, even though it's a second choice. Only tag I've drawn this year, seems I used up all my luck last year. First time lope hunting, any advice would be welcome.

    Still a bit surprised, but does anyone have any experience on 16a that they would be willing to share. Specifically the rifle hunts. I will be able to get down at least once to scout. I appreciate any advice, both my dad and I drew the tag.

    CO second choice options

    Any thoughts on second choice options. When running the numbers, seems pretty limited on units that can be drawn as a second choice...if I'm reading them right.

    NM Elk unit 36 MRS?

    Hey all, Doing research on NM unit 36 for rifle. In the MRS, it says public land is 0%. However, when I compare the mrs to other research magazines, those say there is good public access.

    MRS write up on Utah Elk

    First off, I just want to say I've always been a fan of Eastman's and subscribe to it for help on states I hope to hunt in the future. Now, I have to question their write ups in all states.

    How Many States do you Apply for?

    As I finished my Co application, I started thinking about this. How many states should I be applying for? Im up to 6 nowadays. A couple of them I am just doing points to try and use later, but it starts to become a strategy to not get overlap if I were to draw a surprise low odds tag As a...
