I am planning to go out west antelope hunting this fall and its getting to be time to start applying for tags, I was thinking of eastern Wyoming but am not sure of what area. If anyone wants to go together or would let me tag along I'd love to work something out.

Hi frogtosser, I'm going lope hunting this Fall, but unfortunately it won't work to team up on this hunt. We've been collecting points for a number of years and our hunt is all planned out and set. Good luck in planning and finding a compadre' for the hunt!

Oooo, fun, fun, fun. I think a bunch of us that went a couple years ago MAY be planning on going again. Absolutely love hunting the prairie. We will be archery hunting Eastern Montana.

DonBo if you have any pointers or need someone to tag along I'm all ears, I am interested in going anywhere the goats are.

I'm certain there's more goats in WY than MT (or anywhere else as far as that goes). We used an outfitter and hunted pretty early in the season. Waterholes was the plan, and most were taken there, but heavy rains one night caused many to spot and stock. Some were taken that way. I shot mine at a well used gate crossing.

The rut is around mid Sept. and I guess decoying is a lot of fun at this time.

MT tags don't need to be in till June and archery is pretty much a for-sure draw, no clue about WY.

IF we go, and IF we're looking for extras I certainly will give a shout out.

I hunted WY last year and found the HSOforum to be a bit more user friendly than MT, at least as far as research was concerned. That being said, WY does not have an easy way to view all the public land and the portion of the site that lists the state WIAs is archaic at best. It probably helped that I didn't have any points to deal with either!

The Montana site isn't the greatest to work with but there BLM info and getting maps are awesome, when we got out there were couldn't believe how well everything was marked you knew when you were leaving something public and getting into private. I have done a ton of research for WY might try to get a left over tag someplace this year, it sounds like its the total opposite then MT. Some of the public land especially in the eastern part is land locked by private and you have slim to no chance to get on it without opening the check book, and its poorly marked.

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
