    Idaho Smoky Bennett Elk Unit 43

    I was just notified that I drew Unit 43 in Idaho for Elk (rifle). Super excited! I hunted Unit 33 last year. I had a great time and had some really good opportunities, but couldn't quite get the bulls to cross over from private to public. Had cows at less than 50 yards, but the bulls seemed...

    A Week Hunting D16 Public

    I decided to take a week off from work to hunt D16 public land this year. I purchased two D16 tags, so I figured I had my work cut out for me. Saw a lot of doe opening morning. At 11:30, a monster of a buck, who was apparently bumped by someone else, was headed right towards me at a fairly...

    D16 Forky Report

    Sorry for the long read... I decided to give D16 a try this year. This was my first deer hunt ever (I had previously hunted doe antelope) and also my first solo hunt. After scouting over the spring and summer (and never seeing a deer) and spending A LOT of time studying OnX maps and google...

    Wyoming Antelope

    I returned from Wyoming earlier this week after hunting the antelope opener. Our party was unsuccessful in the buck draw, so we were hunting does only, trying to fill freezers. The first two days were rough for our hunting party. The antelope were on high alert and could spot us from what...

    First Dove Hunt

    I went on my first dove hunt this year thanks to a good friend who invited me to join him on a public land hunt. Wow, what a great experience! We arrived sufficiently early to claim very desirable spots in the field, only to have hundreds of others crowd in on us in the last few minutes before...

    New to the Forum

    Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. I am new to hunting. Went on my first hunt last year (Antelope, Wyoming) at the age of 51 (better late than never). I had a great experience, and my family and I have really enjoyed the harvested meat. I have a lot to learn and I believe this forum...
