    First family hike of the spring did not disappoint!

    Of course I'll never have enough points to draw this area, but still cool to see. My 9-yr old spotted them first (he insists on being credited for his spot).

    New Nightforce scope can't be zeroed at 100 yards??

    I just mounted a Nightforce SHV 3-10x42 on a Weatherby Mark V Accumark Pro in a 6.5 Creedmoor using a Leupold Backcountry two-piece scope mount (rings and bases are combined). While trying to zero it at 100 yards, I run out of adjustment. Dropping the impact to its lowest point (turret won't...

    What am I missing? Wyoming Antelope 38-2

    The number of first choice applicants for a Wyoming 38-2 tag jumped from 74 in 2021 (2nd choice was 114, 3rd was 30) to 233 in 2022 (2nd choice was 255, 3rd was 101).

    Savage Model 1895 restore

    Black bear off my porch (SE WY)

    Last night my wife and I were sitting on the porch watching a doe mulie with twin fawns. The deer bolted suddenly, so we looked around to see why. A few hundred yards off the porch was a sow black bear with twin cubs up a tree. The cubs climbed down and my wife took this video through the...

    Hello from Laramie, WY

    I'm a Wyoming native living in Laramie and working at the University of Wyoming. I typically hunt antelope, deer, and elk in southeast and southcentral WY. I've traveled to Alaska once on a caribou hunt (didn't kill a caribou, but I did kill a wolf and chase off a grizzly). I'm planning to start...
