You know what they say... the uglier the bull, the prettier the calf

You guys forget her mom is hot. How I landed that one has got to be one of my greatest scams ever. She still thinks I'm a millionaire

I put a lot of miles on my boots east of the Wyoming Range, around the LaBarge winter range and I didnt see a ton of dead deer, Id say average.

This is a great thread Robby. Thanks for putting it up. I live in northern portion of Region H. I think the Labarge area was about the only area spared this year. The majority of Region H deer winter along the Wind River Mtn front and that herd took it in the shorts again. The deer we've come across antler hunting look like hell. I'd bet there will be a short fawn crop again like the spring of '17. If I was a non-resident and could draw Region G, I wouldn't be waiting any longer. 3.5 yr old bucks will be almost non-existent and the 2.5, 1.5 and this years fawn crop will be a below average bunch coming up. I do think Region G will recover faster that H. There's just more deer in that Wyoming Range herd than the Sublette herd.

Some friends and I shed hunt in region k and I gotta say it’s sad to see so many dead deer, lots of does and fawns laying together dead, actually saw a few dead pronghorn and cow elk on the same trip

When we’re losing cow elk, it’s a bad winter.

Has anyone been out scouting? I was hoping to make it out sometime this summer but it doesn't look like thats going to happen.

 

[robby denning]

yes. There's been better years, but there's been worse too.

It seems better than 2017. At least there’s bucks where there should be bucks.

Thats good to hear. I haven't been to that side of the state since 2016. I'm looking forward to it either way. Its beautiful country and you never know what you might run into.
