    Frame packs

    I'd say the top 4 pack companies are Mystery Ranch, Exo, Kifaru and Stone Glacier. Personally I run the Mystery Ranch Metcalf for everything longer than day trips and even for some of my day trips I'll use it. The meat shelf is a must and most have stuck it right between the pack and the frame...

    AK Moose recommendations

    We had a good time, but we had a few red flags that would prevent us from going with him again. He has a great success rate and his hunters bag some dandy bulls

    AK Moose recommendations

    I would not hesitate to call 40 Mile Air. You may not get a ridgetop hunt, but they have moose hunts each year for first time clients. If you are flexible it helps to get on a cancellation list and they may just call you. I just finished a trip with Tok Air and won't be going with him again. He...

    AK Moose recommendations

    I just got back from a moose hunt using Tok Air Service. He is expensive, but boasts an 85% success rate (unsure of whether that is per hunter or per camp). Between the two of us (about an hour flight from Tok) we each got a caribou and 1 moose for my buddy. He got a 40" bull (4 brow tines) and...

    Which pack to buy and why?

    Mystery Ranch Metcalf I was in the market for a pack last year and looked for a few months before deciding on one. There are many successful companies that make packs because there are many different backs and they all fit a little different. Try on as many as you can, it would be very hard to...

    ALTITUDE SICKNESS???

    The Peruvians figured out the cure for altitude sickness and I guess Colorado would have it now as well, if they don't smoke it all!

    Selling a Birthright: What would the West be like without its federal lands?

    Big Fin... That was a great read, please put that in print so the ones making decisions can read it as well... Very down to earth and professional with no name calling, they won't know how to handle it!

    Turning a Tag back...

    Thank you very much, I found some of that, but wasn't sure if there was something I was missing. I really appreciate the replies...

    Turning a Tag back...

    Can you turn a general non resident tag back in for a refund if you aren't able to hunt it? The excuse would be that I don't have enough time. Possibly building a house but I won't know until late this summer.

    Mule Deer Population

I came up with this 1961: 132,000 deer were estimated to have been harvested with better than 200,000 afield 1985: 82,552 deer harvested 1970's: Over 50,000 duck hunters in the marsh, around 17,000 today.

    irish setter boots

    I love my Irish Setter boots! I don't remember their model, but they were pretty much already broke in, they were that comfortable from the get-go. Mine have the 600 Thinsulate and I wear them in Wyoming in November every year, putting 30 miles plus on them in a week, I love them!

    Baiting legal in Utah?

    Second that, its legal everywhere... Better said, its not illegal. No law for it or against it. I haven't found anything that works very well for baiting deer, though.

    Extended Archery during Muzzy/Rifle

    How many of us will be out hunting during the other seasons on the extended areas? I know the muzzy hunt hasn't messed with my plans much, but the rifle hunt I'm not so sure about. Anyone have success during the rifle hunt? If so, show us some pics with some orange on and a bow!

    Potential New World Record from the AZ Strip

    Yeah, the Paunsagaunt holds that record. They say it'll net around 215"... I believe Bowdy's buck nets over 220". Nets are for fishin, I say! But rules are rules. Tremendous world class buck!

    Common Man! really!!!

    I wouldn't mess around with tryin to talk sense into em... Obviously they have already taken a step in the opposite direction most of us would. I say either leave it or get there first. The laws about leaving a blind on public ground are very clear, at least in the waterfowling world. I would...

    trail cams

    I use the Primos Truth Cam 35... Haven't had any problems even though a bear, elk, and moose have knocked it around. Super easy to use, the only drawback is its size... Pretty big.

    Pack Trip Recommendations

    My buddy and I are planning a 3-4 day pack/fish trip in a couple weeks. We'll be taking my 3 horses... I'm looking for a good trailhead to leave out of. I'm hoping for a trip not too rocky, but kinda hard to get away from those in the Rocky Mountains! Originally thought of the uintahs, but my...

    Thanks to the Tribune!

    I could see if the resident is walking up the hill and the hunter can't see him, hears him coming not knowing its a person and draws his bow in preparation for it being a deer... Not a good situation. It seems like Highland has set forth regulations and the hunter did not comply... We can't...

    Utah Point Creep

    I hadn't thought about the revenue of the increased amount of Premium Limited Entry hunts that a few "Rut" tags on each general unit would generate for the State... This may be something we can get through with more money being on the table... As long as the details can be worked out properly so...

    Utah Point Creep

    I had an idea one day... We all see big bucks and know of big bucks on general units every year after all the hunts... What if we had one or two tags for each general unit that would fall under the limited entry category and use up points? The hunt would go from Sep 1 to Nov 30, for example, and...

    Considering Bowhunting

    I just got into it this summer, been shooting for the last month is all... I found huntersfriend.com and got a sweet setup for a great price. Since I've gotten it I've changed a few things at the local shop and paid them so I can keep going back. I have a 2 1/2 year old boy so I got the...
