Heading out with icicle creek outfitters update with pics
« on: October 10, 2023, 04:01:06 PM »
Tagging along with Son in-law with horses for opening weekend should be fun again. I’ve taken my daughters out with Bruce and his crew for these day hunts a couple times It will be son in laws first time on horses and will be his first deer if successful.
They had a rough high hunt but you never know
We just enjoy getting out harvesting an animal is just a bonus
Good luck to all this weekend

Good luck.👍 Ask them if they know Lyle. He killed a monster with them as while ago. They may remember him, he’s the guy that lost a leg👍

Bruce and Dale are good guys and run a respectable outfit. High hunt had a lot of issues this year with access, and fires. Some of their clientele have used them a long time. Good luck on your hunt

Awesome hunt seen this guy sparing with his buddy 800yrds away that’s the only way we knew they were bucks
Dropped down the ridge we were on and up the other side to confirm he was legal
Son in laws first he was very excited to say the  least
Got to about a 100yrds and had to wait for him to turn son in law made a perfect heart shot

That’s what it’s about even how bad my knees felt getting off the horse at the end of the second day I couldn’t take a step for a few minutes 😂

Hmm  Your stirrups were turned.  Maybe they were too long.  Sometimes they make them too long so that it's easier to mount.  Or maybe you need more practice.   :chuckle:

That was son in law in pics but definitely need more practice that was his first time on a horse and I hadn’t been on one since last time 15 yrs ago
I didn’t notice the turned stirrups but I’m no horse guy😂👍
