Yep, tresspass fees!
I guess it has to do with location also. I don't pay to hunt in my home state of OK. I hunt public land and private by permission. I guess I pay with the odd gift to the landowner, but that doesn't amount to much. Paying a trespass fee in WY had as much to do with increasing my odds of...- Mingo

Yep, tresspass fees!
From my experience, if hunting public land, especially "back in the day" before the internet, GPS, etc., I needed to hunt the same place 2-3 years to get to know how and where to hunt, and still you could have a hunt influenced by other hunters in the area. To make it short, I just didn't have...- Mingo

Morels everywhere
Wow, morels are done here by mid April. We always cut them in half, dip in egg, roll in cracker crumbs and fry in butter. Of course, we Okies use that recipe for darn near everything.- Mingo

Opening Day.
I have taken a couple of toms by setting up and waiting on them. In both cases it was areas the birds tended to loaf and strut in the early afternoon. Look for birds in the same place a couple of times; not just out moving but hanging out at the edge of a field or in a clearing, etc,- Mingo

Pike and Bass...
Yep, well I'm going on my first trip to Canada in July and want to be ready for some big pike. I just figured there had to be something other than those bulky off-the-shelf wire leaders.- Mingo

Pike and Bass...
Probably no help at all considering the geographical difference, but I like a spinnerbait for bass in early spring. I look for a windward shore with shallow water on a sunny day and roll that spinnerbait by slooow. Seems to be more of a reaction bite. Don't know how it would work for...- Mingo

Educate an Antelope Rookie
Well, I went on my first Pronghorn hunt last year. I set an arbritrary goal of at least 13", with no real concern for overall score. I know that's not that big, but, true story, I was in a restaurant in NM once and saw a mount that looked really nice. I stood up in a chair and measured the... -

Reliable mileage out of 2001 Suburban?
I've had two trucks in the last 18 years. Put 234K on the Ford, now have 211K on the GMC and yes, my wife wants to trade off her 2005 and get a new car.- Mingo

Look at this funky bull
I'm far from an expert on elk, but it seems to me that you don't see "non-typical" antlers in Elk as often as you do in Whitetails and maybe Mulies. Do you elk guys agree? -

Douglas WY deer
I'm not sure how paying a trespass fee fits in with the OYO philosopy, but I don't mind paying a reasonable fee to access private property to increase my odds. Now, my idea of reasonable is different than it was 10 years ago. I have hunted public land a few times in the past and had good... -

Douglas WY deer
Great article Wahoo. Very similar to my Pronghorn hunt last year. I hope I can find a nice buck like yours this year. -

Douglas WY deer
I can't tell you how many phone calls I made last year and this trying to find access, but I can tell you that everybody I talked to was friendly and helpful. I think the fact that most everyone is booked up with return hunters, many that have been coming for several years, says a lot about... -

Douglas WY deer
After my first ever Antelope hunt last year near Douglas, I found a ranch SW of Douglas for my first ever Mule Deer hunt. Anyone ever hunt that area and can give me a few tips about hunting, gear, what to expect? I've taken a fair number of whitetails and read quite a bit, but I have found... -

1st time antelope hunt help
Call Game and Fish and get a landowner contact list for the area you are considering. You will have to make a lot of phone calls, but you can get on private land for a relatively small trespass fee. Some town and chamber of commerce websites also have a list for their area (Newcastle has one)... -

California Mule Deer
I have a lead on a 600 acre ranch just east of Lompoc, CA for deer hunting. The guy I talked to wasn't sure if the deer are Blacktail or Mule Deer. I could use any information about deer hunting in this area. Thanks
