I'm ready, well not packed yet <G> feel sorry for the muzzy and rifle hunters cause us bow guys get first crack.  Shot my broadheads for the first time this last weekend and relieved that same impact point as field tips so no messing with nock point or arrow rest.  Been shooting 4 times a week or more.  So bad shooting wont be an excuse.

Title: Re: Elk time!
Post by: WAPITIHUNTER on August 18, 2009, 01:40:53 PM
No. There are only 1 other archery big bull tag and two archery spike tags. Of course the tribe can hunt when they want so there may be a few of the tribal hunters out and at it also. :dunno:

Nice picture.  He needs to rub that velvet off!  I don't leave until the 10th so that means I have another 22 days.  Great for those who can make it out for the opener.  I am going scouting for 3 days starting next Friday.  Looked at the list of things "todo" last night and decided I had better hurry up!

Same here!  :'( Since I just moved out here and didn't get to practice enough or do enough map/gmu research or get out to glass enough I figured I would wait until Mod Firearm to go elk hunting. I couldn't in good consciousness take a chance at screwing up a shot! Next year... ALL ABOUT BOW SEASON!!!  :drool: :drool:

FYI, you might find yourself waiting awhile to chase a bull with a bow if you hunt the eastside as the draw odds keep getting worse.

Yup it's official, I'm going to be useless until the opener.  Had 25 cows chirping away in my yard this morning with a bull bugling behind our house, this was at about 5:45, needless to say I was late for work.

WASHBCBOOK- maybe you should call the game dept and find out for sure before someone makes a stupid assumtion. Seems like theres alot of *censored*s trying to get points for turning in poachers. I think you know what I mean.

It's always good to know your not the only one suffering from Early Elk Fever. Spent Saturday & Sunday in Willapa & Ryderwood scouting elk & hunting bear and it's getting cold up high but nothing screaming yet. Didn't see a bear big enough to bring home yet either. Lots of berrys still need to ripen. So maybe another chance at bear during early archery. Good luck to all this year!

My buddy and I have decided that we're actually turning into elk.  September's coming... weather's getting cooler...I start smelling things... getting kind of wild-eyed...my neck is starting to swell up... I'm getting excited in public places...

I can't take it anymore!  I already have elk archery season off on vacation.  I just put in a leave slip for tomorrow and Friday so I can go scouting.  Good luck all, I'm outta here!

Put out another tree stand today, this area seems ok, lots of sign in the immediate area, setting up almost in a funnel area- haven't heard any bugle yet, we'll see tomorrow....  Good luck to all of you out there.....  Here hoping those arrows hit their marks....

Not too much going on in the Blues this morning.  A few bugles, one guy saw 3 cows, that was it from our camp.  I won't be able to hit it again until next week...
