LAST EDITED ON Mar-30-10 AT 03:28PM (MST)[p]I have been going crazy not being able to go out looking for antlers(we cant go out intil May 1st)So I decided to drive 500 miles to a new area that I have never been to. I did pretty good for not knowing were to hunt in Utah. My dog found her 1st antler on her own at only 5 months old, she came out of the brush with it 40 yards to my left(1st pic). These are the pics of the better ones, I found 22 total in two days.

I agree, welcome to Utah. After all it is mostly our fault you guys had a closure.

LAST EDITED ON Mar-30-10 AT 09:12PM (MST)[p]Highcountry I did plan it in advance. My wife is from Utah so I had a Idea on were to go. Her family used to go to this area and camp alot and they would find alot of antlers. I only found 2 the 1st day. The second day I went to a differant spot and half way through the day I got into the antlers and found 20. I honestly dont think it had been hunted in at least 3 years. I found white ones out in the open all over. I am going back there soon and I am going to spend 4 days looking around. Thanks guys for the comments about my pup she is hell of a little antler hunter.
