I'm fortunate enough to be able to hunt coyotes 365 days a year. I enjoy trapping all sorts of predators, it can be an extreme challenge at times. Although I have to say that I love hunting with my...

Coyotes are what I hunt the most followed by raccoons. My absolute favorite animal to persue is split between mule deer and bobcats.

Im looking for a good alarm that I can take backcountry that isn't a wrist watch. I'm a pretty heavy sleeper and the wristwatch alarms don't last long enough to rouse me. I also need something that...

The lack of two interdigital lobes on the pad is enough to rule out cat. The presence of a single interdigital lobe rules out bear. The pads of bear tracks are more crescent shaped. Since the...

Bore diameter Larger than .23 inch is correct. This applies to all big game and trophy animals. If you look in the regs its under "firearms "

lucky dog maniac. i've never hunted elk there but i always come across some pretty nice bulls out in the open when i'm hunting mulies around there.

for the first time ever i drew a tag. got my...

i live next to and do quite a bit of work in this unit. it's been very dry here this year. that being said, there are still some decent goats in there. there's quite a bit of public land in there....

i look at the prongs first. i look for them to be above the ear, and their length. generally speaking, the prongs are going to dictate the mass that the horn has. i.e. the higher they are the farther...

i've never hunted deer in that unit but i've spent a lot of time trapping and coyote hunting in that area. i've seen a couple bruisers in there, and the ones i've seen haven't been too far from the...

thanks for the replys guys. i put some rage mechanical broadheads on my arrows and i'm back to 1 inch groupings at 60 yards. it'll get me through the season. i've been watching my technique...

here's the situation:
i had my bow tuned in, proper arrows, good broadheads and was driving tacks at 50 yards. now i cannot get an eight inch grouping at 20 yards. i have no idea what happened, and...

i am not a bowhunter yet, but this will be my first season. i got my bow in january and have been practicing as much as i can. one thing i do in anticipation of the season that might be rudimentary...

hey guys, i'm looking at getting a ladies bow for my girlfriend and i was wondering if anyone had any recommendations or knowledge. i've seen a bear archery youth bow and it fits my price range....

i get the shakes when i think about it; i feel complete euphoria while i'm doing it; i can't sleep at night thinking about it; i have a cow when i can't do it; i can't be around others doing it if i...

While I might not be a very experienced hunter, I do have some tips that help me. Using reference points to compare antlers to will allow you to have a pretty close idea. A muley's ears are roughly 8...

congrats on getting the tag! i've been putting in for it for three years now with no success. area 11 holds a lot of elk. after the heavy snow comes it seems like all the elk from surrounding areas...

thanks so much everybody. that video sure makes it look easy.

Bitterroot, i'm a bit curious about gutless deboning. how do you do it? obviously you don't spend any time with the field dressing and i can kind of guess about deboning the shoulders and hind...

i should probably add that i took my girlfriend with me, she had never been hunting at all and we ended up with two muleys and two goats in three days. it was an awesome weekend.

this muley was definately hard earned. i don't come from a hunting family so i've been figuring out everything on my own, and the Journal has definately helped me. i hunted for four years before...

when you guys pack out deboned meat, do you try to keep the meat seperate? i've always heard that to have the best meat possible you need to keep it from touching other pieces of meat. it seems to me...
