Day 3 update.

Wish I could say BBD. But this bull gave me the slip. Located him two days before the opener. Opening morning before daylight we let out a locater and he told us right where he was.
We snuck around his down wind side, and we got within 75 yards. He was screeching an he had high ground. But he kept moving away from us.
We didn't push him to hard, hoping not to blow him out.
I hope to meet up with him again soon.
Back to camp!

I was up there with these guys last weekend. They're gettin' after it and passing on the dinks, but elk quit talking in the areas they were hitting. I got real close to a couple of cows, called in another elk close that I didn't get to see (came in silent to a cow calls). Ate like a king, drank good whiskey.
So, a good weekend for me - but they still had three unnotched tags as of Sunday at noon. Getting to be crunch time!

I've heard they quit talking up there too. Good luck, Jason. Stick with it and you'll get it done.

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

Not sure who got it or if that was the only one. Looked like it might be a good bull, though.
