Up Close and Personal, or Distance

Have not seen any yet, but if I do, I would have to take a second look at it through my scope just to be certain of my target.

Disclaimer- I did not say where I would be looking at it through a scope so do not assume I am in a State that is illegal to shoot them. I may just be in a State that  allows them to be hunted with a valid license. Thank you, that is all. Carry on!

I will be blunt...
If I see one, it had better be able to run 2900 feet per second. I'm not taking any chances of being torn apart alive. 

You're kidding right?  You have a better chance of choking on a piece of cheese than you do of being "torn apart" by wolves.

So, to mitigate that danger, make sure you chew your cheese completely before swallowing and smoke the wolf

Yes I am kidding. I use to fear cougars until I had one walk into me at 25 yards last year. The thing turned so fast and was gone. I am leary of wolves thou. If I was ever in danger, then maybe I would feed it a barrel of balistic tip salad.

No, i have not seen or heard one yet, but i have seen tracks up above the tucannon in the blues.

I bet Candice would have argued that little pile of BS, if she could!

Of course- the single verified wolf mortality in the US in a century.  Jogging in wolf rich country, with an IPod in, seems like a bad idea.  Better lock and load if you see any bees....

My wife saw three wolves yesterday in lower Alder cr, 75 yds out, last years pups.

My closest was 11 yards, me and my buddy were coyote hunting up in the wedge and we called in 5 wolves. The lead one ran by me at 11 yards, The second was posted up at 45 yards scanning the field. 3 more showed up about 100 yards away. Then they all started howling back and forth. It was a crisp cool early morning and you could see the steam coming out of their mouths as they were howling. This was my first encounter with wolves. It was very cool experience to have. I just wish it was legal to shoot them. We didn't find a single deer or elk track around in a couple miles.

I ran into a wolf at about 25-30 yards during shed season in the Blues in 2012.
