Alex Maher and Brian Hartley of Live Water Properties hunted on the Morningstar Ranch on Saturday morning, October 17th.   The 562-acre Morningstar Ranch is located 45 minutes south of Jackson Hole in western Wyoming’s wild and scenic Lincoln County.  The ranch consists of riverfront meadows and irrigated hay land.   Approximately 1.25 miles of the Salt River, a trophy wild cutthroat and brown trout fishery, meanders below the mountain views. There are numerous building sites with beautiful settings for each.  Many groves of willows flank the river on its course through the property.   In addition to the river resource, the ranch has eight different springs that provide the additional water resources to make this property an excellent fishery and waterfowl hotspot.  These springs present ponding opportunities throughout the ranch and are part of what makes the building sites so unique.

Wyoming Elk Hunt

October 7th, 2009

tatetop1Every Fall I find myself in the hillsides in and around Jackson, Wyoming, in search of resident bull elk.  The elk found near Jackson earlier in the season are generally smaller than bulls in “the Park” who migrate south later in the year.  I prefer to bow hunt during the early weeks of September when the weather is warmer and the elk are vocal and actively seeking their harems.  In my opinion, this time of year is more enjoyable than waiting for the larger elk and the beginning of rifle season which typically entails snowy weather.   » More: Wyoming Elk Hunt

Falconry on Sage Grouse in Eden, WY

September 28th, 2009

houseofgrouse09-001again

Last week, we enjoyed some wobble trap shooting and a successful antelope hunt near Cora, WY with next generation claiming future turf.  Falconry is referred to as “the sport of Kings” and highly regarded internationally as the ultimate hunting pursuit.  These birds are a cross breed between a wild Gyr and Peregrine Falcon.  Cobra, pictured in this blog post, is 5 years old and this was his first perfect “stoop” on a Sage grouse this season.  David Kennedy is the falconer from Atlanta who spends much of the fall training falcons at his “House of Grouse” cabin in Eden with fellow falconer and breeder Steve Chindgren from Salt Lake City.
