Was not ready at all, but this year more prepared. I'm heading up 19Th towards nile area and staying through the weekend. Have a great late season and hope you connect. Mike

Post by: bentshaft on November 10, 2008, 05:25:06 PM: :P yeah buddy the clock seems to be going slow but it will come. went and got permission slips to hunt a farm with 1000+ acres and it has a herd of 150 plus in a 3 point or anterless unit. so i hopefully will get a bull but a cow would be nice. good luck to you other fellas.

Post by: Crunchy on November 11, 2008, 10:30:38 AM: Ya its the Big Horn 3. Ive spent about 10 nites in it, and have no complaints. Flatter ground yes, but options were few as far as locations.

Post by: WonkyWapiti on November 15, 2008, 09:29:34 PM: Boy am I glad I checked the regs one last time before heading out tomorrow!!! Because I woulda been in big doo doo since the late season isn't starting til the 19th!!!!!! I don't know why I kept thinking the late season started on the 15th. Well I gues I will head to the archery range instead and get some last minute practice in.
