Can I see a show of hands from everyone that got skunked this year?

[bucknasty]

I know I'm not the only one. Kicking myself for not taking those two cows during early season.

   Nothin but tag soup for me    BUT still got some elk from my little Brothers 4x4  so was not a total loss this year..

This was my second year of self taught, solo deer and elk hunting. Came up empty on both deer and elk, but had a good season nonetheless in terms of getting an education. Actually got close to elk a couple of times, which did not happen for me last year.

[texasbuckmaster]

could have shot a spike if i wasnt in a 3pt or better area . got close to some in the thick stuff but couldnt send an arrow through them to damn thick. hopefully next year one will get a montec through him.

  Kicking myself for rushing my shot when a nice 4-pt Whitetail slowly crossed the logging road 40 yds in front of me.  Late Muzzy in a foot of snow.

Ok,, Quick Draw shot HER DEER WITH MY RIFLE    She put girly cooties on MY RIFLE causing me to miss not once, not twice, but THREE TIMES ON TWO BULLS  ..So yeah,, I got skunked BUT ITS NOT MY FAULT

Skunked here!  Can't complain though.  It was our first year archery hunting for deer and first time ever for elk.  Saw LOTS of deer but couldn't get close enough to a legal buck (shoulda just let the air out of the many does we had shots at)  Oh well, I never saw so many deer during modern rifle.

[chester]

Yup, no elk meat for me

[Jake T]

big fat zero

[sakoshooter]

Tag soup for me.

thats funny

[MHWASH]

Wouldn't exactly call it skunked, because I saw three legal bulls, but no elk tag filled.

[cwuwildcat]

I've got the foul smell of failure on me as well!

[junkyard]

Got on a small herd of cows but nothing in the freezer for me and my three partners

[Carnivore]

Had a shot at a spike bull early season archery when it was 3pt or antlerless and a shot at a nice 5x5 late when it was antlerless only but no elk down.

[Pathfinder101]

Skunked so far.  Still have a late archery season over here, but don't know if I'll be able to get out in it....

[tlbradford]

   Bought the tag but never hunted them.

[Mudball]

I got nothing! Had a good elk season on the last day, got to see some real nice bull's  that would have been picking. Maybe next year I'll get the tag!  But trying is half the fun anyway still had a great season. There is always next year, and the pic's and story's on here keep me dreaming about it till next year. congrats to all that where successful this year nice work.
