Go get em Douglas!!

I am hoping to have some pics and meat to show too, but I am hoping to avoid the soreness.  At my age it is getting harder to do for some reason.........

I won't be able to hunt elk until the weekend. I can't believe it starts on a Monday.  :yike:
But might try to hit the woods this weekend for another bear.

Ya, thats why I am heading in early...wanna try to bag a bear and maybe a yote or two...

Girlfriend is like "You cant even hunt elk till monday!"...

My response..."Ya, but I got bear, yotes, grouse, bobcats, etc"..

And then there is shed hunting...sigh...

Good luck guys, I know I will need it. I'm heading up sunday and will be back to work on thursday, then back hunting the weekend and off thursday the next week to head back up.

I'm getting a little nervus as I have never even shot at a big game animal with a bow YET. :yike:
