    Help with possible first western hunt

    I understand, the initial learning curve of individual state laws, draws, etc. is steep. My advice: get a GoHunt Insider membership and read every "Application Strategy" for all of the states and species that interest you. You can do a general hunt in Montana next year if you buy a preference...

    CO Elk hunt — Let’s see some photos of rag horns

    Hey folks, Long time hunter, soon to be first time elk hunter. My dad, buddy, and I drew archery elk tags in CO (3 PP unit) this year. I’m fully prepared to shoot the first legal animal I get an opportunity at if I’m fortunate to get said opportunity. I’d like to see some good examples of rag...

    Elk hunters. What’s your favorite bow to take to the mountains

    Mathews DXT! Bought it the week after HS graduation and still kicking. Haven't shot an elk with it yet but plenty of deer and other critters.

    Mobile Hunting Setups

    I have 2 set ups but typically run the saddle set up. I do occasionally leave the hang on and sticks in places I feel I will hunt again (especially during rutcation). I use a Mystery Ranch Treehouse (the bigger one) to packing my systems in. I did just get an Exo MTN Gear K4 for western hunting...

    Drew Utah-Monroe October Rifle -- guide or DIY as first timer?

    I too put in for NM (elk) but have yet to draw a tag there. I am definitely not an expert but I think AZ and CO are both worth it. AZ is definitely more of a long-term plan for both deer and elk but you can do some great hunts in CO with a few points. Do you have a GoHunt membership? Not an ad...

    Drew Utah-Monroe October Rifle -- guide or DIY as first timer?

    If you haven't started already, build points in as many places as you can afford. After a few years you can begin to balance and alternate "opportunity" hunts with "quality" hunts and mix deer and elk. This has at least been my plan... CONGRATS on this awesome tag. Just looked at GoHunt it...

    Fingers crossed for CO

    A guy in our group successfully grabbed a muzzy cow elk tag! Still have my dad we’re trying to get a tag for. Fingers crossed for the return list.

    2024 Iowa Draw

    I agree with that. I can see a scenario where NRs lose the gumption to want to hunt Iowa without their beloved trail cameras. Maybe wishful thinking...

    Weight Loss For Hunting in 2024

    I started MTNTOUGH Preseason Prep 2.0 earlier this month and feel great. It's probably the toughest programming I have ever done. Sticking with it until the truck heads west on 9/11!

    Layering System for a western hunting newbie

    Hey y'all, just wanted to say thanks for all of the input! Since this initial post I snagged a few Sitka pieces on fire sales: Ambient Jacket and Kelvin Aerolite. I'll take both of those pieces in addition to the Dew Point in the pack. September is getting close...
