Ok so I'm facing a spinal fusion 'soon'. Anyone out there have this done and what limitations - restrictions with elk hunting did you encounter in the years since? Bob.

What's the barrel length on the 300, rechambered? and where are you located? Bob

I had a disk removed at L3-4 last year. Went well, but other discs are trashed. Didn't hunt last year due to recovery. Fusion for me only matter time

Good words of advice.

Ha! Yeah that would be be different! No airbow, archery only. Looking at same level fusion here, been walking 3-5 miles a day. PT helping only minimal at this point - trying to postpone inevitable until after Fall hunts. Glad to hear it worked out well for you, and good advice. Appreciate it Bob

I might be getting lazy, but trying to keep several states draw process' straight is confusing. So here's a what if: What if I applied in this years draw for an Archery Bull Tag as my 1st choice. Then I apply for an antlerless hunt for 2nd and 3rd: If I draw the 2nd (or 3rd) choice Cow Tag, would I loose my points? How can I figure the draw odds for an anterless hunt (Regs are useless) ? Just looking to put some meat in the freezer this year, but dont want to burn all my points for an anterless hunt. Any strategies? Thanks Bob

Tell me what cow hunt you want and I can get a general idea of the odds of drawing it but as mentioned you would lose your points. As a NR I would say using points on a cow isn't your best bet. You're two years away from that 6a early bull tag might as well wait. Definitely holding on to my points for AZ, want that 6A or 5BS tag.

yeah thats what I thought, loose points if drawn. I couldnt find that info in this years regs. Appreciate that.

Draw odds for NR 5 Pts, Early Archery, 6A and 5BS?

This just makes me sick. Can't imagine Good karma to your buddy.
