    2013 Elk Choices

    Early Rifle unit 1 is 18 points to get in the bonus pass, single digit odds until then, unit 10 was the same, unit 27 would be in the same ballpark. Early Muzzy in 3B (there are no rifle hunts in 3B anymore) took 15 points last year (2011) to get in the bonus pass and everyone with 16 points drew.

    2013 Elk Choices

    6B, 7E, 4B and maybe 5BN early archery should all be realistic possibilities as you will be close to the bonus pass in those units. Those can all be decent hunts if you do it right. Another option is 11M, not a premier unit, but is definitely within grasp at this point and plenty of good bulls are killed there. You can probably draw most of the late rifle tags, and there may be an option or two available in the limited opp. hunts if you are familiar with any of those units. They can be solid hunts, if you know the unit and where the elk go once they get pressured. You are at a crossroads where you have the option of drawing a few different tags or sticking it out for 2-3 more years and having a shot at some of the more popular tags (6A, 3B, 4A, 5A, 5BS, etc.). Does anyone know when the updated draw draw by pass info comes out?

    Back from 13B

    Great buck. I wish I could get caught up in the moment and shoot a stud like that! Thanks for the story, I for one have looked forward to this since draw results came out.

    5B North late bull hunt

    Good luck. Go glass a canyon you should be able to find a bull.

    20B last day success!

    Congrats on your first deer. A good lesson learned here, once you have fired a round at an animal, only shoot at that animal until it is dead or you have checked for blood. This scenario could have been a real bummer if you had shot more than one buck. A lesson I have learned the hard way.

    Plunkett does awesome work. A guy I work with just brought home his 220ish Kaibab from your shop, and boy does it look good. I have always thought open mouth was my preference but now I am not sure. Antmo you got any pics?

    Points and Eyeguards

    I shot a buk this year with 5" eyeguards. He was nowhere near 128 so those things just look giant. I agree with the other post, put some pictures up of that beast.
  10. Thats about as good as you can ask for. Nice work.

    Unit 30A sucks!

    Why not just put in for a unit with better access that is a high draw. Find a unit close enough to home that you can scout regularly and one that isn't steep as a cows face. It says right in the regs that 30A has access issues. Just my .02, good luck in your endeavors.

    I am pretty sure my Dad has said similar things a few hundred times, just never about a tag going to waste. Don't worry I ended up ok, despite suffering from self inflicted "retardation" most of my youth.

    Yup. Looks like a big ole barrel with some stubby little legs. That's a healthy bear.

    Great deer. Congratulations on taking a couple of bruisers. Bucknasty seems a fitting name.

    I am hoping these go on for a while. My pig tag should have been a sure thing.
