Fun tag! You hunted that unit before?

Watch meat eater, it’s that easy :chuckle:

:puke:

Haha, never hunted the unit, been in it and hunted all around it for years. I had 27 points. Drew weneha bout 5 years ago, but got my tag/points back due to the grizzly fire. My hearts in the weneha, but with 2 tags, it’s just so hard to draw anymore. Mt view was my 2 nd choice and got it. I’ll bust my a$$ in it just as I would anywhere else. Just hoping for no fires. It’s been a struggle trying to draw again

I’ve seen all the meateater stuff. I know the terrain. I never said it was easy.

PM me if you want to dive into specifics. Happy to share waypoints and experiences.
Awesome tag. Hard hunt terrain wise in NF and swirly wind on 4-0. Lots of elk and opportunities. Will have pressure from rifle Natives on 4-0 but didn't get in the way much off the road system. Tons of bears.
Been apart of quality hunts in the past 2 years. Last year was wonky with fire closures so hopefully nothing for you in the way of closures this year.

I have had some fun in that unit !!! Good tag and probably the only unit in the blues that isn't struggling with its population

Hunted that unit as a kid. I was about to make my triumphant return either with camera or longbow in hand, then I saw it on meateater :bdid: I figured that would bump it for awhile. I hope you have a great hunt. That country isnt for the meek

Tagging along. My favorite unit in the blues! Hunted spring bear several times in there. Hope to hear about a great hunt!

cant tell you how many times that has happened to me, sooooo frustrating!! I’ve learned now to copy any long story before I hit the post tab.

Can't wait to hear how you did!

I found it easier to type it up on a word document then copy and paste it to post. I have had it disappear on me several times and this way fixed it.

We were fortunate to camp next to Tony and Steve. I've talked with Tony on the forum, but didn't know him. We didn't make the WAHunt connection until after the hunt. We didn't have a bull tag, so we reported all of our bull sightings to Tony and Steve each time we saw them. Tony hunted hard and for the entire season until he tagged his bull. So happy that he put the tag on a super nice bull. We had to leave before Tony shot the bull; I would have really enjoyed getting to hear the story on the hillside instead of over the phone.
Hopefully, Tony can post the story when he returns from his and Steve's Wyoming deer hunt.

Stud Bull for sure. Congrats again buddy.
After 5 days in the backcountry for the High hunt I was about 4 hrs into my drive home when I received a text from Tony saying “ I shot a stud today at 9:50am and we’re just getting back to camp with the first load. Text came through at 9:12pm..

Nice work

Great bull and pics!! Thanks for getting them up and good luck in WYO.
