3 months or 92 days until Archery Elk opens
« on: June 04, 2012, 10:50:47 AM »
Are you ready?!?  :o  These last 3 months usually fly by for me.  I still need to get a few things dialed in (bow string reserved, broadheads dialed in) but I have been shooting almost daily and putting in the miles on the road.  I love this time of year!

It will get better when I can get out and start scouting.

I'm always ready.   Can't really start scouting until draw results are out :bash:

can't scout until at least mid-July when the roads open up from snow.

35 days from today until the opener for archery elk; 37 painful days until I hit the road for elk camp.  To make the wait a little easier I am headed on a scouting trip Fri - Sun.  It will be 30 days to the opener from Sunday.  What better way to spend the time than in the backcountry looking around?   :IBCOOL:

How do you all get the time off of work and from family? 

I can only swing 6 or 7 vacation days and thus I am maximizing my time by missing the first 3 days of the season to hunt the last 10.  I wish I could be there on the 4th! And 5th and 6th...

Going out this weekend and set another stand (already have one up).  Plus, scout up a big 6x7 bull we saw before leaving last time.   Going to be 4 to 6 of us in elk camp this year (and I'm the only one w/Bull tag)  :IBCOOL:  Can't wait!!!

Elk camp is my families vacation.  I have 3 weeks vacation now at work and all of them are used for hunting.
