Boys 1st elk!
« on: October 09, 2017, 05:52:33 PM »
After a case of elk fever and missing a nice 6 point last year at 50yds with his muzzle loader he finally redeemed himself this year. This guy came in on a string this morning and he made a perfect broadside shot at 40yds.

"When my bow falls, so shall the world. When me heart ceases to pump blood to my body, it will all come crashing down. As a hunter, we are bound by duty, nay, bound by our very soul to this world. When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter

It is better to be consistently incorrect than inconsistently correct...

My level of sarcasm depends on your level of stupidity...

Sarcasm makes smart people laugh and stupid people mad.

Sweet - that's the good stuff
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.
