2011 Archery Season

[MHMT]

I don’t have too much to show for it (as far as putting meat in the freezer), but still had a great time this archery season. I was able to smack a doe but that was it.

I did succeed in educating countless antelope across the state while trying to get within archery range via spot and stalk.

Helped a friend scout and hunt for a bull in a special permit area which was a blast, I’ve never heard so many bulls...

I was able to take the MR 6500 on a quite a few walks, It has seen a fair number of SW Montana mountain ranges now.

I did almost repeat last years elk hunt, but it was just too good to be true. About a mile from where I shot last years bull, I called in a very nice bull to 12 yards... broadside... and nailed a branch with my arrow...

I am hoping I might be able to get the new backpack bloody as soon as I can use rifle.

Nice doe! As for not having much to show for it! I will tell you that I`m envious! Those are some beautiful pics in some beautiful country that you get to hunt! Enjoyed it!

Great freezer filler there as well

Getting out and about is fun. Looks like you were getting in lots of hunting time. You will have a hard time topping last years elk.

I wouldn't trade my time outdoors for anything. As far as seeing animals and good times, this year has been one of my best.

Haven't missed a weekend of hunting since August 15. I don't ever plan on topping last years elk unless I draw a limited entry tag.


Here's a few more

Just after I ruined a stalk on a lone cow elk trying to fill my Elk B tag. I took my frustration out on this grouse.
