I guess I can't be too mad. It wouldn't be hunting if we killed something on every oppportunity. Guess we learn from our mistakes somehow. Too flippin bad I learned not to try and sneak an arrow between limbs tonight. An even worse it had to be a pope and young buck. Oh well, well worth the evening. He'll be back. I normally wouldn't take the shot but it was only 30 yards and I had a wndow at vidals about size of a saucer. Just deflected off the limb and sailed a bit. It was the buck I posted before. Here is a front and side shot again to refresh your memory and help you feel for me tonight. I doubt if I sleep well. Bright side, should be hearing bugling and seeing bulls tomorrow night and possibly letting the air out of one Saturday. Maybe my luck will change. |

Darn dude........lots of time to get another one or another chance at this guy. What neighborhood are you headed for elk? |
| jackelope:
crap....that's why they call it hunting though and not shooting. i thought when you posted those pic's earlier, we'd be seeing one of them on the ground at some point....keep at it. |

Going elk hunting over around Packwood. Last year was my first time over there. Some friends of mine have been doing it for years. By the way, I only had about 10 dreams about that buck last night. It is moments like the one I had last night that keep me hunting thats for sure. I will replay it over and over and learn from my mistake. Then next time I will do sometehing else wrong, eventually it all comes together. Maybe not on this buck but still a great lesson and experience. |
