    Idaho Muzzy Deer 51-1

    My brother-in-law and I both drew this hunt this year and my husband had it last year. He had a blast and I'm really excited that I get my chance this year. We will be making it a family affair and rented a house in Mackay, hopefully taking a babysitter along for my 3 year old and 10 month old...

    Carry sidearm? Radios in ID

    Couple of questions about hunting during muzzleloader season in ID: Is it legal to carry a pistol (or friend with no tag to carry a pistol or rifle) while hunting during muzzleloader season for protection? What about if you have a wolf tag and a muzzleloader tag? What are communication laws...

    Hanging goose. To gut or not to gut?

    We got our first Canada goose this morning and are planning on hanging it for 3-7 days as suggested by Hank Shaw and others. My question is do we need to gut the sucker first? If so, do you just pluck the midline, then gut it like a turkey? Or leave feathers? Or pluck the whole thing? Not really...

    Open invitation to hunt Maui, Hawaii

    Awesome offer! My husband, 15 month old son, and I will be there Nov 13-16, after Kauai for 5 days. We would love to meet up with another hunter and if going hunting is possible, ice cream on the cake! I've been thinking we might try to get a babysitter to go fishing for a day on either island...

    Jarbridge Wilderness cow elk success

    We took 2 horses, rode in about 5 miles and used pack bags over a saddle to pack her out. Fortunately my husband was up for a fast hike out to keep up with me riding and leading the pack horse out before it got too dark on us. We saw quite a few elk, heard 5 or 6 bulls bugeling. My husband's...

    Thanks to all of you that gave me good advice, both about hunting with horses and hunting Unit 72. We are heading home with a cow elk in the cooler after 2 hard days of hunting. It was super fun, saw quite a few elk and had a great first elk hunt. One shot 373 yards across a canyon and she...

    ruffed or dusky grouse NV Unit 72 while elk hunting?

    Does anyone have an experience of hunting (or just seeing) ruffed or dusky grouse while elk hunting in Nevada Unit 72? Specifically in the Jarbridge Wilderness, but also potentially anywhere else in the unit? It seems that the season will be open and might be fun if we happened into any. Is it...

    Cow Elk Hunt unit 72 Jarbridge NV

    Yeah, I've been keeping an eye on it. The containment date worries me a little bit, because its the day I'm planning on leaving. Sure hope they open it up before then so I know what I'm driving 12+ hrs with a horse trailer for. I'm assuming that even if it is still closed they wouldn't refund my...

    Thanks! I'm in Mendocino County, so howdy neighbor. Nice mules. I've got a young mule who we hope to pack on eventually, but realize he is just too green for this trip.

    Cow Elk Hunt unit 72 Jarbridge NV

    Thanks for the reply. Is there a Jarbridge map worth getting? Can't seem to find it online, most things say to call the FS office to order it I think?
