The Subject for Photo of the Month Contest for October is Images of the Hunt. This does not mean Kill Shots or shots with you and the animal! It means sights that you saw either getting to your hunting area , what you saw once you got there or while you were returning home. This should produce some awesome results and I can't wait to see the results!

I don't know if this will count because I no longer hunt with a gun or a bow. I only hunt with my camera. Ever since I had a Heart Attack 3 years ago I have not had the urge to kill another animal and I am afraid to over exert myself dragging it out of the woods alone. :( The Doctors have told me that would be a bad idea, so the camera is my way to get into the woods to observe nature. :)
I'm leaving it up to the Group to decide if I qualify!

Well....it wasn't exactly what I saw returning home but found a few days later. There is a much longer version of this story but the short story is that I got in a bit of a fight with a 3 point. :chuckle:
BTW, in the end, I won :chuckle: What you are looking at is the buck track bruise in my leg....

First frost of the year....
Is that a glacier bear? That sure get's me excited! Didn't know non-native hunters could hunt Glacier bears. That's about the coolest thing I have seen in a long time. Does he have four toes on both front feet? I'd take one of those over a 400+ elk any day of the week. Awesome :tup: :tup: :tup:
