  1. Pretty good line up so far! I'm actually a but surprised that there aren't more 270 and 270 WSM on the list.

     

    6 300 WM

    4 243

    4 6.5

    3 300 RUM

    3 7MM

    3 257WBY

    3 280

    2 270 WSM

    2 270

    2 280

    2 338

    2 25-06

    1 7MM WSM

    1 260

    1 22-250

    1 7-08

    1 7STW

    Add another 270 wsm to the list. Mines a Model 70 Classic Laminate, bone stock and accurate enough for me.

  3. Just thought I would follow up. After months of comparing the 12x ELs to every other top end binocular in 12 and 15X I decided the ELs were the right decision. I was close to going with the SLC 15x, but really wanted one pair of bino's to do it all, and I'm really happy with my choice. I found some good deals online and ended up purchasing a used pair on ebay at a huge discount off of retail. After a week of impatiently waiting they finally arrived this morning. I had them delivered to work and spent a few minutes with them looking down the street. I work with my hunting buddy who has never looked through swaro's before. His first comment was "Man these are clear!". I had a hard time getting them back from him after that. He's uses Vortex Viper 15X50 HDs and has always out glassed me. I think that's going to change. This year I have enough points to all but guarantee me the late Coues tag I want and new glass to find a big old rutty buck.


  4. Hunt Units and Regions

     

    Draw odds

     

     

    The Cody, Lander, and Green River Region have great access to public land but most of the tags require more than 3 points. These areas are regarded as trophy units. Wyoming antelope don't hold a candle to AZ though.

     

    The Casper and Sheridan Regions have the most antelope and decent access. If you look at the draw odds there are plenty of units you can draw with 0 points. Look at units 7, 15, 16,21, 22, 25, 27, 29 and 30. These are your best bet. They don't have the vast areas of public land that other regions have, but you can get a tag and hunt a lot of antelope. Converse county is generally regarded as the "Antelope Capitol" of Wyoming.

     

    I made a map that has the Antelope units and Surface Ownership. Look at the ones that have access and narrow it down to the ones you can draw.

  5. I've made the decision to upgrade my glass and am trying to decide between the Swarovski EL 12x50 Swarovision and the SLC 15X56 WB. I've been comparing them and like the weight and size advantage of the El's. Optically they are both fantastic. I give the edge to edge clarity advantage and color to the El's. Having not been able to do a side by side field comparison for an extended period of time I cannot speak to the difference in spotting game and the detail required given the difference in magnification. I'd be interested in hearing from those who have used both. I'm concerned that I may come to regret not having the 15x magnification if I go with the 12x. I know I cannot go wrong with either and price is not a concern. Does anyone regret switching from the 15s to 12s?
