I predicted the rut will run late this year. Also, horn growth will be better than usual! Trophies to be had by few.

I predict my partner will fill his Toutle tag within the first 4 days of our hunt and I will fill my tag the last weekend of the early season....most likely with a cow. I will post up pics when all these predictions come true!

I predict that we fill one of our two elk tags and I fill my deer tag on our guided trip to Montana.

My buddies and I went 1 out of four last year (25%), and I passed on a small bull calf under my stand at 15yards opening morning.  my tag sure tasted bitter on the last day of the season.

Put in a lot more time and miles this year and predict at least 50% to 75% tags filled.  Also, prediction of larger antler growth is accurate based on the pics we are getting.  Couple monster 5x5 and 5x6 bulls in our cams, and this was in early July thru mid-August when they were still growing!  Unfortunately, none of us have bull tags!  Oh well lots of spikes and cows too!
