    Nebraska Antelop Hunting - First Time NR

    Nonresidents can purchase late season doe antelope tags. Pine Ridge rifle deer tags are limited quota OTC, no caps on resident/NR split. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    Nebraska Antelop Hunting - First Time NR

    I don't know if I would count on NR rifle antelope season anytime soon. Late season rifle doe antelope permits increased by 52% this year. They also have limited the Pine Ridge unit to one firearm permit per person that allows for the harvest of a mule deer. Still OTC, but should create more...

    Nebraska Antelop Hunting - First Time NR

    They did. NR tag went from $184.50 to $207. They're limited in how much the annual increase can be though. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    Nebraska Antelop Hunting - First Time NR

    They sold over 500 NR archery antelope tags last year, and they've seen a pretty substantial increase over the past few years. The increased archery pressure (both resident and NR) has also had a negative impact on resident rifle/muzzleloader success rates, and some of those tags take 5+ years...

    Nebraska Antelop Hunting - First Time NR

    The 250 NR archery antelope tags are OTC; they're just capped at 250 this year, instead of unlimited as they have been in the past. Tags go on sale 8/3. Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    East Nebraska Meat Hunt?

    Not trying to pick a fight, but OTC public land hunts, and "fill a pile of tags quickly" generally do not go together. The harvest data also doesn't bear that out. Nebraska rifle season success is typically around 50%, archery/muzzleloader under 30%, and antlerless around 40%. Overall success in...

    East Nebraska Meat Hunt?

    The antlerless registry was designed as a tool for landowners to find willing hunters to remove excess deer on their property, not as a tool to open up private ground to hunters. I know it has lead to some folks gaining private access to shoot does (both long-term and short-term access), but I...

    Colorado Archery Hunt

    No advice from me as, as I've never hunted antelope in CO (I'm sure I will at some point), but I have to ask, did you get to 12 yards spot and stalk or hunting from a blind? I've chased antelope the past few years with both a rifle and bow, and I've been within 35 yards with a rifle and 65 with...

    East Nebraska Meat Hunt?

    If your goal is any deer, then yes, your chances are certainly better for filling a tag. It's a 9 day season, so you'll have pressure for the length of the season, especially close to Omaha. However, pressure should subside a fair amount after opening weekend, so I would focus on hunting during...

    East Nebraska Meat Hunt?

    Yes, there are public land options within 2 hours of Omaha that you can rifle hunt. Keep in mind though, that the closer you are to the big metro areas (Omaha, Lincoln), the more crowded public land tends to be. Also keep in mind the rifle season is only 9 days, with the majority of the tags...

    $50 FL Guide lite pants

    I typically use Eddie Bauer Guide Pro pants since they offer tall sizes and can be had for under $50 on sale, and when I compare the First Lite Guide Lites to the EB Guide Pros, the First Lites seemed significantly louder. Even though the First Lites fit (usually wear a 34, had to order a 36), I...

    Eddie Bauer 2.0 evertherm down hooded jacket $99

    Received mine yesterday. Super lightweight, but the LT is a lot looser fitting than I like; wish they had them in MT (I've had a hooded Microtherm 2.0 in MT that fits perfectly for a couple of years now, even though it's the Storm color, it's still workable to hunt with). I will likely return...

    Pronghorn State Ranking

    If you want to hunt bucks as a non-resident in Nebraska, archery is your only option. It is an OTC hunt in a state with limited public land, so there is a lot of pressure, but you can still have a fun hunt (just adjust your expectations accordingly). There is a late doe/fawn rifle season that is...

    Nebraska otc

    The secret has been out for a while now. Of the large (and large is a relative term when compared to other states) continuous chunks of public land in Nebraska, it's the closest to the major metro areas, so it tends to get the highest amount of pressure.

    First lite Guide lites 49.99 Sierra

    You're probably right, but I went ahead and returned them anyway. I realized I just prefer the versatility of solid colors to hunt, hike, fish, camp, and head out around town, etc., and was just looking for an excuse to return them since it was a good deal.

    Nebraska otc

    Generally speaking, the western half/two-thirds of the state is where you will find mule deer; the majority of the public land is in the western half as well. Keep in mind four of the rifle units are in the Mule Deer Conservation Area, and two of those are not OTC. The closer you are to the big...

    First lite Guide lites 49.99 Sierra

    Does anyone else think these pants are kinda loud? I typically use Eddie Bauer Guide Pro pants since they offer tall sizes and can be had for under $50 on sale, and when I compare the First Lite Guide Lites to the EB Guide Pros, the First Lites seem a lot louder. Even though the First Lites fit...

    First lite Guide lites 49.99 Sierra

    I wear a 34 in jeans, and ordered a 34 and 36; 34 was tight, 36 was almost perfect.

    Eddie Bauer 2.0 evertherm down hooded jacket $99

    I love my guide pro pants for hunting, hiking, and fishing. Just ordered an Evertherm to try since they had a large tall in stock! Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk

    Keto/Low carb diet

    Congrats! That's awesome. To the OP, about 3 years ago I decided to change my diet, and stop half-a$$ing my workout routine and lost 20 lbs of fat and gained 15 lbs of muscle over 20 months. I cut out processed junk, and focused on whole and minimally processed foods (there is such a thing as...
