Back to the Bighorns in September. Can't wait!

Leaving 4AM   sat morning the 27th to hunt till mid afternoon.  Be home in time for a grandsons football game.  Go again on Sunday if the legs can handle it!    

Birddog, the sangre de Cristo!  Now that's a workout.

Dad and I are driving to unit 73 in Colorado for 35 days... That should take in most of the elk archery season    I didn't draw a mule deer tag but did get a bear, elk, and marmot permit! I'm excited just to get out there but to see dad all worked up is really special.

Good Luck everybody.  I'm using my vacation this year for Nov whitetails and December coyotes.

Leave a week from today. Units yet to be determined. 81, 21, 22, 68. So confused.......

Didn't draw any tags this year so will have to hunt at my cabin in northern CO.  Darn.

Headed out Friday night to the Rio Grande NF(about 45 minutes from the house) for a four day hunt, after that I'll hunt a couple more 4 day weekends and the last week if I haven't tagged out. Good Luck All!

Will be hunting here in sw Montana September and October

O.C.Tag  Missoula, MT - N, S, E or W they could be anywhere and are everywhere.  Probably my old stomping grounds.  I always see enough sign to keep my spirits up and sometimes and animal or two.
Elk Camp



They Were Here !

They Should Be Here Somewhere ?


I have a week blocked out.

Rain forest rosies for me. I could see the ocean from where I killed my bull two years ago. Elevation must have been at least 650' above sea level!

leave in 4 days for colorado for 2 wks, my 20th year!

CO (371) last week of the season.   Can't wait!

Going to start out hunting moose, elk, whitetail, mule deer, bear, cougar and wolves on the Peace River on the 31st...with any luck I will have all the game I need by September 1...I live by myself so that could just be a couple of deer

Sawtooth Southern ID this year.

Leaving Sep. 11 (our 34th anniversary) for combination elk/deer hunt in southeastern Idaho!

I took a friend on a scouting hike into the area i was planning on hunting.  There are just miles of serious Blow Down and probably a Bull Elk pinned somewhere in there too.



There has been quite a bit of deadfall over the years but there were some exponential forces at work in the last year. There were a few elk tracks on the trail in.  I imagine the elk were trying to figure out how to navigate the mess too.
I might have to try something new.
