hard earned horns
« on: May 17, 2010, 11:40:01 AM »
here are a few I found saturday. saw 5 bears, 37 bulls, hundreds of deer, lots of big toms andsome horns!

The dog had a great time but the vertical rockslides beat up his feet pretty good.

Great day to be in the hills.

 :chuckle: I was wondering when someone would notice the 8oz can, sure makes them look good. on side is 71" and the other is 73". he's a mid 160 buck.

also, the dogs a redbone/bluetick. Sometimes I wish he was a Visla, I heard they'll actually listen to you. Poor dog is still at home sleeping, I didn't realize the east slope of hte cascades was so steep.

Wow we have a lot of sour kids on this web site :)
 Dont let him fool ya they were found down at the blues and not any were around ellensburg, for some reason a few think the blues are a secret :) I cant wait until next year when I start to learn the blue mt. country there wont be a shed for miles in either direction.  Maybe I will just spend a month straight down there since I dont work and study them elk, apply myself to the blues like I do the entiat, I kinda feel sorry for the sheds down there they wont stand a chance!
