A muzzy elk? Am I seeing that correctly?

Congrats!  :IBCOOL: Love seeing that!
I am not opposed to golf, for I suspect it keeps armies of the unworthy from discovering deer.

yeah- she is quite the muzzleloader hunter!!  This elk was not really in the backcountry, she got him 300 yards from our house.  We live in the boonies, but not quite the backcountry!  :)

Congrats on some fabulous animals! Love the scar on the bridge of that buck's snout!

Have a pro with you or what.   Thats about perfect Alwine.   


I wish I could have had someone with me to take a pic of my buck 25-30 feet in the air in the top of a tree, with me standing on the overhang above it looking down.    I think it would have been the neatest field photo of all.

Just remember any deer is a good deer in the back country!!
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

Great Pic's! Looks like a great time! A Gal at work drew an Enchantments hike permit for the second year in a row. Hope to get a report on any deer/goat activity up there!
Having done a one day thru hike up there, the deer population is not so good, but there are lots of goats running around. I take it you are talking photo taking. As hunting would not be an option up there.
