Happy Camper am I!!!!
 

This spring I put in for two controlled hunts here in Idaho. One, the most important one, was an antlerless elk hunt from November 21 to December 31.

This is a rifle hunt, but matters not to me, The Knight Ultra-Lite and the 300 grain Bloodlines will be my partner on this hunt... :barmy::barmy::barmy:

The second hunt I applied for was an extra late season Whitetail tag.. which real has three seasons...

1. Aug 30 to Sept 30 -> Archery only... rules me out...
2. Oct 10 to Dec 1 -> Rifle hunt again the Ultra-Lite and probably a 40x200 Bloodline
3. Dec 2 to Dec 14 -> Muzzleloader only - using Idaho's olden rules....

+ and a big + I have a regular whitetail, rifle season, tag for Oct 1 to Dec 1

You have to give up your regular season elk tag to get the late season cow tag... which is alright with me, the bow hunters have a very effective lobby and control the most of the 'Rut':mad:

Happy for you Sabotloader. And for us. It means we'll be getting some interesting reports from you after October 10th. Knock one down for the HNI guys!

Congrats on getting drawn for the hunts. Sounds like fun. Looking forward to the reports.

Congrats on your draw. Look forward to hearing from your hunts.

Congrats on the successful draws! The Ultra-Lite should get a real good workout it's first season.

Sounds good. Good luck to you. It will be a great test for the knight.

lucky dog...I put in for WY elk and ME moose and didn't get drawn for either.
Good luck. Can't wait to hear all about you hunts.

Good Deal!!

I just put in for a ML draw hunt on a very tough to get local area. There are only 30 tags available and its only for 2 days but at least its before the normal rifle season. We can apply in groups of upto 5, so my buddy applied with me.

I got some good news too. I have a trophy buck tag for ML. I am super jacked. Ron

Glad to hear it Mike. Some great hunts to get ready for and look forward to.
