The next Clear cut I wanted to glass we get to, I pull my Glasses up and theres a Elk right in the middle of my Bino's, I couldnt Believe it, I sneak up to 150yrds, find a nice stump for a rest, Put my fiber Optic sites high on the front shoulder and let'r rip! Elk down! Fun fun Hunt! Sorry no pics but she was a 2year old cow, I will be eating Steak&spuds and Steak&eggs for quit a while, my 2 favorite meals!! :IBCOOL:

My 13YO son has that permit. We were close on Friday, but tried to sneak in a bit and got winded.
This is my first time in Coweeman for late muzz. I would agree it does seem pretty crowded- at least with drivers.
Didn't really see many elk. Were going back for another try.
Any suggestions?
