Mule deer
Bear
Elk
Turkey
Grouse
Pheasant

Basically, all the general tag animals you can hunt in WA. Don't do waterfowl though haven't found a good recipe to eat ducks or geese.

My grandma should teach you ahah

Mia moglie è abruzzese.

Quando vado a caccia di cinghiali con mio cognato, usiamo i fucili Remington 740 / 742.

I fucili di tipo militare non sono ammessi; sono invece legali i fucili semiautomatici come il Remington.

Anche un amico in Sardegna usa un Remington 742.

L’Abruzzo è una delle mie regioni preferite. Quello che descrivi è sostanzialmente la caccia al cinghiale più tradizionale che si fa da queste parti ma ormai si fa anche molta caccia di selezione con carabine di precisione

Pigs, goats year round I hunt 2-3x a week on my island. Mostly pigs with the dogs

Hunt axis and mouflon during season on Lāna’i. Also do pay hunts and a few culls. Also hunt deer on Moloka’i, pigs on Maui sometimes deer. Pigs, goats, sheep on big island all these are year round.

Enjoy chasing elk with my bow in the Pacific Northwest haven’t been successful but came close. Usually hunt Oregon or Washington have friends and family there.

I usually do an international hunting trip as well. Africa, Australia, NZ etc I like that l can bring home meat from our New Zealand hunts. I usually bring back 100# of meat when l come home. Usually red stag, fallow, sika, rusa great venison but Axis is still my fave. Might try for tahr next month when we go back to NZ but we see.

Usually just a few (elk, deer, and bear). I live in Nj but prefer west hunting so i usually go to Idaho.

Elk and mule deer as long as I can draw a tag. whitetail deer, coues deer, antelope and all kinds of small game and predators.

 

[TradLife406]

In Montana usually two whitetail does and buck. Then an elk if I'm luckily.
We can take up to three elk. So this year I'm going to focus on trying to shoot multiple cows with my daughter.
Always put in for pronghorn but the area I want is one of the largest in this part of the state. So the number of applicants is big. But it's a pretty easy and fun hunt. Drive the farm road or highway until you find the herd on the herd of small group. Hop out, fill the tag and go home. Hopefully this year we draw. Goats are made for rifle hunting. And it's a great kid friendly hunt.

 

[MDR]

Moose, bison, caribou, sheep, black bear, grizzly, grouse, waterfowl.

I typically put more effort into caribou and sheep than anything else.

Prioritizing sheep, caribou and grizz this year.

Mountain goat is on the list for next year.

Private land hunts here are great, not all canned.
I hunt lots of small private tracts along with public.

All depends on my needs
3 deer last year, all fair chase on private.
2 bobcats on private
Lots of birds
Some ducks on public, not many last year for me.
Hunted all kinds of things, just didn’t kill that much last year.

Hi guys, as you can understand from my bad english i am not american. I always read your threads and i really like your way of hunting, much more than the rigid dogmatic way of central europe. In my country, Italy, we are lucky. Hunting is strictly regulated but you still have some freedom of movement after you survive to all the damned burocracy. And we can hunt basically as many animals as we want in two specific periods of the year on public land.

So i am curious about how many animals you kill each year and of which species on public land. I speak of public land because i assume most private land hunt are a joke like here in Italy, where basically the owner points you the deer and almost squeeze the trigger for you

Edit: i like your hunting style so much (and without knowing it, i found out that is very similar to mine) that I will participate to a shoot to hunt class in the future if i manage to (trying to organize at the moment being on the other side of the planet!)

May 10 days hunting spring black bear.
August 10 days chasing sheep.
September 20 days combo hunt bull moose and bull elk
October 7 days chasing white tail.
November 7-10 days chasing mule bucks in the rut.

I’m truly blessed up here in BC this is all over the counter and annual.

Lucky my job is busier in the winter and lets me bank all my holidays for hunting season.

The majority of that is solo besides the sheep and the moose.

 

[ActivelyDying]

Muley Buck (Sept & Oct)
Blacktail Buck or Doe (Oct & Nov)
Black Bear (Aug & Sept)
Bull Elk (won’t be pursuing this year unless I fill my Muley tag first thing)
Cougar (If I see one and it’s in season)
Turkey (spring)
Waterfowl (Dec-Feb if the skiing isn’t good)
Grouse (always harvest when I can/ in season on the summer/ fall hunts)
