That's ok, I don't mind if the archery guys want to leave all the bulls
in the woods so I have more to choose from in November.   :IBCOOL:

I was just thinking the same thing but am fine with it since I can't make it out until Friday. I bet some hit the dirt but they don't have internet access at their camps so we will see stories and pics posted this weekend or next week of elk taken so far.  :twocents:

Had one bull bugling for me yesterday morning, but as soon as the temps warmed he clammed up big time.  Tried everything but could not get him fired up.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

I know of 1 cow harvested on opening day. Got sent the cell phone pic last night. Keeps the motivation high since I'm not getting out until this Sunday.

had one come to 35 yards opening morning but too many vine maples in the way to get a shot. elk arent moving much and are only talking the first hour and last hour of the day. pretty tough hunting right now

I shot a spike today and another Guy in camp shot a cow.  Two elk in one day is a lot of packing.

Listen hear button nubbs you've been on this forum long enough to know the deal. You can't just post this up without pictures and a story.  That's just wrong. So I'll ne the first so say it.  We the members of hunt-wa do not believe you until we see photographic evidence of this "harvest"!
