I think it's a little of all. People will shoot the first yearling they see but then say not the biggest but meat in the freezer ect, the cat population is outrageous, wolves are moving in, winter in 17' was awful, last winter was great so we have an influx of 2points and everyone is killing...
Being a resident, I get texts and pics every year of the monsters that come out from that year. I can say ive only seen 4 bucks that have been worth while, 1) high 150s, 2) 185, 3) 165ish and 4) 215-220. Other than that nothing but 2 and 3pts killed this season. Between the cat numbers and...
How I see it is elk hunting is a desire, people will still buy. The tags will still sell out. The demand for elk hunting is at an all time high. So the more demand and less opportunity, the higher the price. Just like houses in todays rediculous market. I do agree the prices are too high, but i...
I'm a resident... But woof. These prices shot. $927 at the end of it with archery permit.

Dad drew a top 3 deer tag here in Idaho. (First time ever) it's howling...up to 50mph gusts. How do deer fair in this? We are still going out no matter what. I'm guessing they won't be moving. Just want to hear other inputs.
My buddy (who is on here but sucks at posting) his dad dropped his bull yesterday. MY dad ended up drawing the premium deer tag in the same unit, when we went out a week ago I ended up spotting this bull a mile in. Looked like a pretty good one. I dropped them a pin and yesterday they ended up...
Excited for this November. It'll be my first muzzy mule deer hunt. Ended up scoring a tag for a 20tag zone in my backyard. Will also be using this exact cva wolf.👊
That's what my pro shop said as well, bad bearing is what hes thinking. And I definitely had some adrenaline but watching the video, I was too calm at the shot. Didnt push/pull. I'll get the video up here if I can.
The shop is going to strip it down and take a look. If its on me (which I...
Well not the way i wanted to end my season.
I ended up pulling a monster 5 off his cows into 14 yards, as I was drawing back I had trouble drawing 70 (thought that was weird but it was cold and a complete downpour)
He came in screaming and growling. I stopped him at 14 yards broadside. As i...
I understand what you're saying. Unfortunately, youve assumed. My brother inlaw runs a ranch and so does his family. Ive been around many friends growing up and on their ranches. I've ran it by him. He has his concerns, but also he agrees that there would be many upsides to it.
To be 100%...
Thanks brotha! Not sure how I can combine them. Just wanted people to see. As well as have constructive criticism.
Like i said before, livestock hold their purpose on our public lands some of us would just like them to go in earlier. Itll help both ranchers and hunters alike out in my eyes.
