Great!  Glad tpo hear you got it all sorted out.
I am at a loss for elk.  Shooting okay, but not satisfied and now my buddy got transferred out of state....... So, not sure where I will go or what I will do.

Knock 'em dead!  Looking forward to the pics!

bankwalker,  Im a bowhunter so I am glad you got the equipment, but I am also a fly-fisherman so I am sad to hear that you sold your fly rod.  I would say you made the right choice though.  I envy the both of you, I am stuck in Oklahoma City and wont be home until the 20th of September so that pretty much takes care of my early elk hunt.  Good luck to you both.

yeah i really hated to sell it. but in reality i wouldnt be doing much fly fishing anytime soon and i can always buy newer better fly rods and gear.

so i guess you won't be needing the arrows i was holding for you?

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
