    I have to send out a special THANK YOU to Explorer!  We had been hunting for a few days on the youth hunt and having a hard time finding a buck.  We were hiking the hills hard, glassing, and seeing a few does here and there, but struggling in an a hunt area that we were very unfamiliar with.  We went to town for gas and I happened to take a look a the Coueswhitetail.com youth posts and saw Explorer's post.  He mentioned contacting him if we were having a tough time, so I did.  Wow!  I can't tell you how glad we were to hear from him.  He told us to try out an area where he saw quite a few deer.  Our hunt went from famon to feast in one afternoon!  Thanks Explorer for helping us out on this hunt.  My boy turns 12 today and we couldn't ask for a better birthday present!  Thanks Coueswhitetail.com for providing a platform for hunters to help each other out!

    Just spent a week up in the unit on a family vacation.  I drew that hunt too this year!  We stayed at Brian Head.  Tons of snow up on top still.  Seemed like there were deer everywhere we went below the snowline, but I didn't see any bucks.  We fished Panguitch Lake and it is now one of my new favorites!  We all caught fish and a few of us caught some big ones.  We had the most success with yellow garlic power bait balls.  Fished from the shore and no matter where we went, we were catching fish!  Awesome lake!  Not sure where I am going to start when it comes to hunting up there.  Will need to do some more research and topo surfing!

    Got a question for any of you that may have some experience hunting buffalo on the North Kaibab. Do the buffalo actually jump the fence bordering 12A and the National Park or do they use breaks in the fence or low spots that are easier to cross? I can't picture a 1500-2000 pound bull jumping a barbed wire fence, but maybe that's what they do. Any experienced buffalo hunters out there with an answer?

    I got the early hunt... 1/1 to 6/1. Trying to round up info myself. I can fill you in with my experience once I get into it. Would love to hunt them without sitting on salt or in a blind, but it sounds like that is how most successful hunters do it these days. Email me and we can share info.... byorksmith@gmail.com

    They either like messing with us or have the biggest bunch of clowns running their computers. I imagine a herd of chimps banging away at the keyboard - helps me pass the time until the draw REALLY comes out.

     

    There goes your tags Jason!

     

    I personally think that Game & Fish is doing a wonderful job and I have the up-most respect for all of their employees. As a matter of fact, I think that they should all get raises and extra benefits like and an extra 10 weeks of vacation and guaranteed tags and free massages while they are working so hard on their computers. ;)

     

    Sooooo, when do I find out that I drew my elk tag?????????

    I sent a pair in to be repaired and they never sent them back to me. As a matter of fact, I was able to track them down to a distributor in the states and they said they would send them to me if I sent them $350. They were suppose to fix them and cover the expense under the warranty (which is what I was told), but they ended up stealing them from me. I would never send Docter Optics in to be repaired unless is was through a private company....
