My scenario wouldn't involve any private, I'd be shooting from public in another unit at an animal on public in my unit. I've never scouted a credible scenario like this until I drew this tag and although there's plenty of other spots that look to have potential the spots I'm asking about are...
Not at all, the unit I drew this year has a river for a border and there is very good vantage points in the other unit that give a very commanding view into my unit and within what I consider ethical ranges (400 yards).
Unit boundary question and this may be common sense for some but it isn't for me so here goes. Can I take a vantage point in a neighboring unit and shoot from that unit/vantage point into the unit I hold the tag for?
12 points burned up on a unit I'm not all too excited about but I got them burned before 90/10 and I most likely wouldn't have caught anything better so it is what it is. Real world problems over here :ROFLMAO: .
Crazy thing about Isle Royale is that the moose population was way down (like the rest of MN/WI until the wolves inbred themselves out of existence. After the wolves were gone the moose population exploded yet the study performed by our politically corrupt DNR in MN said the moose decline in...
That's good feedback and I appreciate it. I looked through them briefly and their view was as good as their price was high so I put them down almost immediately:ROFLMAO:.
I currently own 10x42 SLC's (HD) and I'm wondering if the jump to the 10x50 EL's is worth it at their current "sale" price"? Better edge clarity and light gathering is what I assume I'd gain but I know there's folks on here that have forgotten more than I'll ever know about optics so just...
Very cool to hear the history of that area and supports what I believe to be happening in many areas. I know this is far from the only thing/biggest thing working against mule deer but just something that I believe gets too little attention when these discussions arise.
You could be right but I wouldn't mind seeing some studies conducted to prove that theory but once again, we'd have hunters pitted against hunters depending on if you prefer to chase elk or mule deer. I've just been amazed at how many 6 point elk I've seen/taken in comparison to 4 point mule...
I agree with gritted teeth, I love mule deer and I've watched their numbers decline the whole time I've hunted out west while watching elk numbers in most of those same areas increase. Don't get wrong, I love elk hunting but just not as much as mule deer hunting and I think we've traded our...
This is great advice, they cut nonresident tags by 10% and then if you throw in standard point creep and the threat of a completely revamped draw in '25...............................
