Found my elk tag....suppose I'm getting closer to being ready. The wife made a 5 lb lasagna and is prepping to make a few pot pies for dinners...coming right along. Time to sight in the bow!

I got almost everything done last night.  Pack is packed just can't find my GPS but I guess I don't really need it since I am on a farm hunting or I just go to my old standby.  Clothes are all in my huge zip lock bag after hanging outside for a while.  Tryied sitghting in my bow with the new toxic broadheads but they were all over the place.  Screwed my Muzzy MX3's back on and spot on.  I wonder since those Toxic cut so good maybe I didn't get all the foam off from my shot block?  Good luck guys I will be in the blind on Sunday trying for a mulie.

  Mother nature made me a predator. For 45years I  have honed my hunting skills to the point that  I'm a shadow in the wilderness. I am death to anything I hunt, my kills are quick and clean.   When I hunt, neither animal nor man ever know that I have been there.   I'm a mountain man from the past. I'm an arrow slinging, Elk Bulging, Deer Stalking, Bear killing machine.  OH wait a minute that was a dream :chuckle:
  Truth is I'm ready for a good time with friends and family, getting out in the woods and pitting my skills against mother natures tastiest animals.  I was lucky enough to draw the multi-season elk tag so with any luck I will have a photo of something to post by the end of the season(s). :)  So to answer the question,  Yes I'm ready, WAHOOO
Life is good when you are killing and Grilling

Someone throw up a check list of the basic/important stuff. I want to see what I may be missing.

I thought you said you don't shoot in camp?   Witch by the way was about the dumest thing anyone has ever said to me.  I shoot everyday in camp.

I explained this to you....It's not that I don't shoot....It's that I make sure my last shots before I put a pin on fur is dead on. Its a confidence and mental thing. If I start jacking around in camp and shoot like garbage I may doubt myself when it is go time. I've done this with rifle and bow ever since I started hunting.
