Success on the East Side. 6 for 10 with 4 youngsters in camp.
« on: September 19, 2011, 09:46:59 AM »
Hey Guys,

We just returned from our Archery Elk Hunt on the East Side. We harvested 6 elk out of 10 tags. Two 5x5 bulls, two spikes, and two cows. One of the best parts of the hunt was having my 9 year old boy in camp for about 7 of those days. He was involved on many of the hunts, watched me shoot an elk and helped call some bulls in. I know my Dad who started our elk camp over 20 plus years ago and passed away in 2009 is smiling down on us. With 4 new and upcoming bowhunters in camp it was a great experience. The elk hunting was good too. Here are a couple pics. I will let the others from our camp post other pics and tell their stories. I love Elk Hunting!

Wow, that is awesome.  I was in the wrong area.  12 days of hunting, no bull for me.

you guys must have them really figured out. Congratulations. I spent six days (all I could get up there) Hunting hard from 3 am till 8 pm and only heard one elk  didn't see any at all but saw some fresh sign.
