    The Season of Stupid (& elk)

    Ahh, its not done!! Plenty of opportunity for a last ditch effort to plaster another layer of crazy onto a pretty epic season of crazy. I'd bet the hardest part is being properly motivated to engage the crazy button hard enough this late in the season :D.

    The Season of Stupid (& elk)

    Without reviving a 10+ page discussion, I chamber a round if I'm in country holding critters. That may be right out of the truck, or waiting until moving through an easement etc, just depends. I will say this, with a round chambered I am constantly checking my safety and very focused on muzzle...

    The Season of Stupid (& elk)

    Ahh but would you have learned as much? Mistakes are amazing teaching tools, and for what it's worth, I'm personally finding way more value in them than I used to.

    Family man's 2023 hunt log/recap

    Huh, thats actually a really good question, one I haven't really thought about. Where legal, I've always picked up antlers/deadheads, so that's the best answer I can give really. In this case the carcass had sat for better part of a month, and not in a hard-to-get-to spot, so the proper owner...

    Family man's 2023 hunt log/recap

    Got in a late afternoon hunt today. Been wanting to get out for a longer day but final winter prep on the house and a fun 2nd round of a cold slowed me down a bit. Was a great quick trip, bumped a handful of does on my target ridge and cut some good sized buck tracks on the way up the hill.

    The Season of Stupid (& elk)

    Like the others are saying, dig in and enjoy the hunt and the country and learn a bunch! The other guys will do their thing and they can wonder why someone would be crazy to put so much effort into elk hunting ;).

    The Season of Stupid (& elk)

    I did read it all, some of which you did mention in prior posts, so good stuff! Its clear the cart was built for this particular spot (cow trails, lovely cacti etc). I'm personally applying the concept to some of my hunting ground (inland northwest close roads with plenty of logs to roll over...
