    New Leupold Scope - Which One?

    If you are interested in purchasing a scope in the Leupold VX3i line of rifle scopes I would wait a month or so to buy one as it is my understanding the VX3i line will be replaced (upgraded) to the VX3HD line of scopes. ClearCreek

    How to go about antelope hunting for the first time?

    What Biggie posts is correct. You CAN NOT tell what roads are public roads by looking at OnX. Do as some have suggested, use the County Road and Bridge maps to locate a possible road and then contact that R&B office to make sure the road is available for access when hunting. Many roads...

    Montana or Wyoming to retire?

    It WAS that way, currently the State of Wyoming and other entities supported by taxes are in a huge budget crunch because of the lost revenue from coal, oil and gas. Wyoming will become an expensive place to live when the tax burden is shifted from carbon based to property taxes and income...

    Who's Retired?

    I retired 2 1/2 years ago after working 45 years in the wildlife management profession for two state wildlife agencies (12 in the first and 33 in the second). It was a great career, I did, and was involved in activities that a lot of hunters, anglers and wildlife enthusiasts would only dream of...

    Maven RF.1 Rangefinder?

    Actually, I did not even notice the knob. I was handed the range finder by a Maven executive, I ranged a couple items, one of which was a known distance and then I handed it back to the Maven exec. As I mentioned above, I liked the display because it was sharp and easy to use and the size...

    Wyoming road closures.

    It is supposed to get nicer starting on Monday and be in the mid-40's by Wednesday in the Kaycee area. You may want to head north on I-29 and then come across South Dakota on I-90 to Buffalo. I-90 is open, but both the South Dakota and Wyoming road reports indicate there are slick spots. When...

    Required Orange needed for photos?

    You had called him five times in the previous month to report people "jacklighting" and then when you are driving out in your field after dark (with lights on your tractor I assume) you get your panties in a wad because he responds quickly - he did not even change into shoes. I am wondering...

    Wyoming unit 20 doe’s help

    Make sure those antelope you shoot don't have a black patch of hair on the side of their head. In a month (mid-November and later) quite a few of the bucks will have lost their horn sheaths and all that will be visible is the horn core. At this stage the bucks can resemble a doe with horns...

    WY- how to tell if road is public or private

    There are private roads that are named because it is an advantage for first responders when dealing with fires, ambulance calls, etc. At least that is the way it is where I live. ClearCreek

    Rookie hunting guide

    I spent a few years guiding deer and antelope hunters for a friend that was the outfitter. His number one rule regarding alcohol consumption was: If a hunter takes a drink of alcohol while we were out hunting that hunter was done hunting for the day, no questions asked! Save the drinking for...

    Witnessed a poach.

    What Short Track witnessed is illegal in Wyoming. wytx posted the definition of a “Public Road or Highway”, and it clearly states the area between the fences on a public road is considered the road. Shooting from a public road is illegal in Wyoming. Whether or not you consider it...

    Short Track: If you made the drive yesterday that means you must have been successful in your hunt on October 1st. Glad to hear you were able to make the drive, and I will agree, it is a beautiful time to make that drive! Now, how about a photo or two of the hunt? ClearCreek

    Big horn scenic drive?

    I think you are talking about Red Grade Road that is in Sheridan County. Yes, that is a gravel/dirt road. It will be open the first week of October unless we get a real good blizzard (not likely this year). That road can be pretty rough, especially a section coming down the east face that is...
