Quit pretending, runamuk.  We've all seen your BMM tattoo.

unless the mafia emblem is cherries, strawberries or cupcakes (or swallow, or phoenix, or celtic knots) pretty sure I dont have that tattoo :chuckle: but I do need another one or ten :chuckle:

and colockum penned up all the elk in colockum and guards them with a black helicopter thought everyone knew that ;) :chuckle:

Cupcakes are a good option for the BMM emblem.   :chuckle:

Well congrats, you are now officially on the list. I will be sure to let the family know. Good luck out in the woods all by yourself this fall.  ;)

Duh!  Reduce roads and make it harder for hunters and poachers to access them then harvest will decrease.  Did we really need to waste state dollars on this?

We praise the Blue Mountain elk herd and we drool over  the permits to hunt those elk yet we blast the science that made that herd what it is? What should they have done, just let nature take it's course? Right....come on, man, give me a break.

I wasn't blasting the science but rather the decision to spend money on the science.  It doesn't take a PHD in biology to figure out that enhancing escapement by limiting road access and thus hunting pressure will increase the chance of bull survival.  But apparently it does in this state in order to justify a good decision.

Science is not free. I think there's more to that report than just --the closer they are to the roads, the more bulls die--

It definitely does not take a phd in  biology to figure that out...but what else are they doing?
:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

What the heck is the blue mountain mafia?

LOL this guy must be thinking "WTF, kind of weirdos are these people. I thought it was a hunting website and all they talk about are sasquatch."  :chuckle:

Halflife don't worry about being on "the list" I've been on that list for a year now.  As long as you stay off the roads the BMM can't touch you.  They are so used to how easy the Blue "Mountain's" Mole Hills are that when they get to the steep and rugged Colockum they can't make it far from the road.  You should be safe.  And as runamuk stated I'll keep a watch over you with my black helicopter.   :tup:

At least he didn't nominate the swallow as their "secret handshake"  :chuckle:
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

The worst part is that the one taking it doesn't seem to be putting up much of a fight.  :chuckle:
