Bow4elk's Oregon Coast Elk Hunt (9/17-26) UPDATED story & pics
« on: September 16, 2010, 11:42:59 AM »
Wishful thinking, but I wanted to start a post that I can revisit with a successful hunt report when I get back on the 27th.  Rain is in the forecast for the forseeable future so this year will be very different than years past.  We hunt off our bikes and will have much more added weight due extra clothes, tarps, etc.

I'll take a lot of photos as usual but won't have a way to share anything until I get back.  I've got a ton of work and packing to do before I leave tomorrow night so I'm going to sign off for now.  8)

Sorry for the tease...my bull is a raghorn 4x4 that I'm very proud of considering the circumstances.  I'll try to get the write up done tonight or tomorrow.  :hello:
