What is everybody's plan for hunting this year?
Dove for me September 1, then archery in late September. Will mix in a bunch of smal game and upland game in as well. I can't wait!
Anybody who is starting hunting this year send me PM maybe we can go hunting for pheasants or something.
Doves as soon as I find a spot. Goats in Wyoming mid-September in conjunction with my elk scouting trip. Elk and mule deer in the Black Hills a few days either side of Halloween, probably grab a lion tag too. Then maybe some Phesants in Nebraska in December/January.
I am firmly in the grasp of the black hole-esque pull of the fall, the pursuit of game and the allure of being as far from the world as I can get for awhile. It is one of the most primal and irresistable feelings I experience....
If anyone has a "secret dove spot" they want to share, lemme know.... :-)
Lots of plans here. Opening day/weekend for each small game season. Plus assorted other days.
2x deer tags, one elk tag, and one pronghorn tag for big game.
Then late winter when everything else closes, time to drag in the yotes with their thickest winter furs.
Yeah, I have done that twice... and then they share and share and share and you can't even get into those spots any more unless you are there at 4am.Quote:

On a side note, it should be great anywhere in eastern CO near water (aka rivers and streams) as it has been hot and dry and the bird count is through the roof!!
I'm on private land for dove. And can't invite anyone, sorry.
Last year had limit+1 collared 45 minutes in. I'd recommend the very north east corner of the state, that's where we go and get good Results. I'm talking 10 miles from Nebraska, on/near the platte.
Alaskan black or brown, depending on what the family wants. Should be a good 2 day trip in September.
That sounds about right; I'll be heading to the same Public Ground for the 3rd year, just got to have the "Dumbass Radar" on high-alert. [Whacko][Whacko]Quote:

Got a late season doe antelope tag.
Poor coyotes will not be getting any hall passes all winter long, as usual.
I'll be up there for 10 days, that's where I'm from, so alot of family to see. Planning a float trip too, probably trout on the kenai. Might try and snag a moose or caribou too, depends on time. My cousin has a tag to be filled in unit 13. For me it will just be a camping trip...wink wink.[NoEvil]Quote:

I am thinking of getting back into hunting, have not had time for it since I moved here from TN about 9 or so years ago. Was thinking about elk but now thinking of antelope, since I have had no time for preparation. Race season is always so busy that even in TN I had very little time for scouting and stuck mostly to private farmland or wherever my Dad scouted out and could put me on a good site for deer.
It would be awesome to find a couple of guys to hunt with who have a better grasp of public and private lands than I do, but for now looks like just some backpack hunts here and maybe a deer trip back home in TN if the old man has anything scouted out.
