Title: 2 Days of scouting
Post by: jager on July 15, 2011, 10:16:53 PM: I just got back from a couple days of scouting...
Thought I'd post up a few pics.
Brought trail cameras but.. forgot my camera so I had to use my iphone.
Fyi.... It's really hard to take pics through a spotter with a phone.

Saw 13 branch bulls, a heard of 40 +/- cows and calves, several legal bucks both whiteys and muleys a coyote and a bear...pretty good couple of days

Thats a .357 shell, the track is a little more than 3 1/2" top to bottom

Reminds me of my favorite quote from the late Bill Krenz, "Pain and frustration are the creeping tricks of time in the weeks and months before hunting season."

All these nice pictures are starting to cause me great pain and frustration. Thanks a lot!
