2nd Rifle. We will be elk hunting too.
2018 Plans
- Thread starter Buzzard Breath
- Start date
i've been very fortunate to be able to hunt a "friend of a friends" place out there the last two years. This will be our 3rd year out there. 3 or 4 of us hunting 8,000 private acres in the foothills of the san juan mountains. its easy terrain.
FYI, those new to Nevada (like me) need to create an account then attempt to buy the license. A screen will then pop up to show proof of hunter education. You will send a picture of your hunter education card to the listed email, after it is approved you will then be able to buy a license and apply.
This is my first year with Nevada so hopefully I get my hunter ed approved before the draw deadline. It's a pricey state but being a bonus point system and the fact I really want to hunt NV I think it's worth it but you really need to capitalize on the license and apply for more than one species to "justify" the high cost.

Nevada apps are in, first year for me. It's also the first time I've ever put In for a sheep tag. Nevada is the most expensive state I've ever applied in but the way the draw works it seems to even out the serious cash I dropped to the states wildlife.
Basically averaged out to $46 per species, including license.

I decided not to apply. The guy I would've applied with put in for a mule deer and was drawn for it. He's using a guide/outfitter and I'm not able to fork out that kind of money.

Well the countdown for WY's results can now officially begin........ I just hope Eastman's unit pimping habits don't cost me a tag.

He must have found a copy of my play book. I spit coffee all over my office when I saw the list. He hit everything I put in for this time. They can keep the deer and goat tags if they will pull one of my super tag tickets 8-)
just confirmed i got my mule deer tag :super:
so now i will be both elk (bull) and mule deer hunting ! I hope this year goes the same as previous years.. If so, I will be bringing home plenty of meat :drool:

The 416 fire in Colorado is really throwing a wrench in my planning.

Yea, that thing is blazing! I was planning a late Summer scouting trip but it appears everything will be burnt, hopefully it's not to hot and it will provide some excellent habitat in years to come. I also hope moisture comes in so the fires suppress and they open the forest back up.
Also heard of a fire on the WY/CO boarder and one broke out in Helper, UT behind a power plant that stares out as a control burn but go out of hand. Way to early for fires...not good.

Well Wyoming results are in. Successful for deer and antelope. Anyone else get lucky?

Antelope 2nd choice. Unit 7.
Don't know how we didn't pull first choice. Haven't looked at the draw odds yet to see what happened.

Headed back to MT for the 3rd year in a row. I cant get enough of that place. Got a 173" muley on my first trip, then went back for an archery antelope and whitetail, which I got last September. 3rd year in a row to not draw the bull permit for the area we hunt, so I am headed back for another deer (probably a muley but wont let a great whitetail get by) this coming November. Building points in Colorado and Wyoming. All this on top of my whitetail hunting in KY and TN.
Jmed,
I have not met one person who didn't just absolutely fall in love with Western hunting. It's indescribable and something I believe every hunter should experience.
Will and I drew some WY pronghorn buck tags and a few doe tags in a bordering unit.
I will also be in SE Montana around the 24th of October, what part will you be in?
