Title: 2011 Wyoming Elk Hunt
Post by: Chad Berry on September 23, 2011, 01:54:23 PM: We just got back from Wyoming and I thought I would share a few pics. It was an amazing hunt. We called in 19 different bulls on the hunt. Dad arrowed a 340+ 6x6 on video on the afternoon of the 17th. The following morning I called a 6x6 herd bull into 25 yards using a Sleazy Cow Call and made a one shot kill. We got some great footage of the hunt. I hope you enjoy the pics. Good Huntin', Chad

Post by: Chad Berry on September 23, 2011, 02:27:05 PM: Jackmaster - This was a D-I-Y hunt in Eastern Wyoming. We arrived 5 days before opener to scout the area and spent a total of 18 days hunting. We looked a lot of area over trying to locate different bulls. We hiked some pretty rugged terrain and both Dad and I lost nearly 20 pounds on the hunt. It made for some great memories. The video footage we shot will be used on an instructional elk hunting dvd we've been working on for the past 3 seasons.

Post by: stickbuck on September 24, 2011, 08:52:21 AM: Nice bulls guys!! Congrats!! Have always liked your guy's videos and can't wait to see this footage soon. You gotta love the sleazy. It seems like yesterday when I first used the sleazy. In all reality, it's been almost like fifteen years. Your Dad's calls have definitely worked well for us. Congrats again to you and your Dad.

hey chad berry did you or your brothers go to sumner high school by chance

I was wondering the same thing. Did you go to Sumner Jackmaster?
Title: Re: 2011 Wyoming Elk Hunt
Post by: Chad Berry on September 25, 2011, 02:02:19 PM: No, that's not Cameron Hanes in the picture. If it was I would of made him carry a heavier load. I'll have to tell Justin he looks like Cameron.
