Elk .... Let's see them!!!
Glassed him bedding 3/4 of a mile across a canyon. Took a while to get over to him, but finally caught him bedded in the timber pocket we saw him go into. My son's first bull!- Cornell Cowboy

I'm a bit surprised. As the department head in one of the engineering departments at UW I can say that within our faculty, easily more than half hunt and within the students in the department I would guess it's higher than that (at least among the guys). I'm not sure what fields you're looking...- Cornell Cowboy

2025 Wyoming Moose
Got out for my only archery weekend with my middle son (13-yr old). Got camp set up on Friday evening in a beautiful draw. The plan was to try my hand at calling. On Saturday morning we made our way up the draw a mile or so and set up to call. After calling for an hour or so, we heard antler...- Cornell Cowboy

I bought a more compact tripod to shave weight, but I was glad I brought the spotter. Plus it was nice for digiscoping.- Cornell Cowboy

Upcoming AK Caribou hunt

Scouting For September Mule Deer
Your questions are pretty broad. I don't know if the does well be there in two months, but it wouldn't surprise me. On my property, I've been watching a couple does with their newborn fawns. They're typically in about the same place in September too. In my experience, bucks will hold to their...- Cornell Cowboy

2025 Wyoming Moose
2-night camping trip with my 3 boys on Cliff Creek. Did a bit of hiking and some more driving around... mostly the boys were enamored with axe throwing. Saw quite a few deer and quite a bit of old moose sign, but no moose on this trip. The wildflowers were beautiful though!- Cornell Cowboy
