Title: 10 years ago- Now
Post by: buglebuster on July 01, 2025, 07:14:22 PM: I mistakenly commented some elk pictures in a similar thread that happened to be an upland hunting thread, and Karl promptly called me out and said maybe I should start my own thread for similar content. Post your elk hunting pics from 10 years ago and now(2014/2024) to see how
Much has changed! Karl can start the mule deer one (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20250702/3459ea87db791b549492341e1eebbc2d.jpg)

Guess I'll play and give it a bump.

I'm terrible with pics.

2024 would show my unnotched tag.

Post by: MackDaddy509 on July 09, 2025, 08:57:48 AM: 2014 - first Bull (16 yo)
2024- 6th Bull (26 yo)

Found my passion for big game hunting when I was 18 years old after trying muzzleloader seasons for the first time. Been all downhill ever since (draining my bank accounts strategizing and applying for any tag I can get my hands on).

Still hard to beat mallards in the corn though :chuckle:

Post by: scotsman on July 15, 2025, 10:38:24 AM: 2013, High Country Colorado hunt at 12,000’, 6 miles back to camp. Unfortunately not my bull, I just helped chirp it in and carried chunks of meat. Still a great memory. My buddy Greg shot it with a 55# recurve.
