High country elk in September!
Pat B:
There's still time, Justin. Put that roof off for another week. They will understand. Kenneth brought the big wall tent for this hunt so there is plenty of room! ;)
GregB:
I hear you Justin! Beautiful pictures....I made three different trips hunting in Colorado, and they all three were successful! Oh, no animals taken, and only one missed shot. But successful from just having the privilege of experiencing such grand mountains. Hearing the bulls bugle always sent shivers up and down my spine! That sound has got to be the wildest sound in nature.
I'm sure yall will have a great experience, even if taking an elk doesn't happen...but best of wishes to you that it does! I'm really looking forward to pictures and stories, the next best thing to being there ourselves! ;)
Little John:
Thanks Brock, Justin,Keenan, and Greg for your support. wish we could turn it into a totaly Primitive Archer community hunt. Maybe next time. Pat I did open the bow tube this morning and what a splendid suprise, Elkie is to die for with her new looks. The rattler skins of yesteryear were beautiful beyond description, but the rawhide with its primitive hunting mural is just too much. I just love it more than any thing. I liked the cane handle wrap on the old Elkie, it was gorgeous to look at but really love the feel and grip of the new handle. could not wait to get home from work to try her out and she shoots perfectly with my hunting arrows and dead quiet. I shot the medicine bow also, what a treat. Took pics of both and will post later. Oh Kathie got our trail mix made today, looks to be about 20 pounds worth, really good stuff. Man oh Man, if I wasn't pumped for this hunt I am now. Kenneth
johnston:
Would like to thank you fellers for sharing your adventures. Kenneth, you and Kathie live in heaven and have the good sense to know it.
Pat it looks to be an over the top trip and I gotta say it seems you fit right in with these fine folks. But all of you please remember the most important thing .....Post plenty of pictures !!!!

Lane, on my first trip out to hunt with Kenneth we had never met. He asked once on PA "What would be your dream hunt?" and I answered that I had always dreamed about hunting elk. Kenneth called me a few days later and asked me to come out and hunt elk with him and eight months later I was out there. My daughter was freaked that I would head out to a wilderness area with a guy I met on the internet...a possible serial killer! ::) I think Kathie may have thought the same thing about me, the serial killer, coming into her home but she never showed it and we all hit it off very well.
Well, Kenneth wasn't a serial killer(me neither ;D )and we became very good friends on that trip. He and Kathie treated me like I was part of the family. Being able to go back out and seeing both of them and spending time in the high country with my high country mentor is quite a thrill and treat for me. 8)
Kenneth, glad you like Elkie's new look. I think the pictographs tell our story! 8) Even the fox we saw going in last time got his fill!
here is the new look that Elkie is sporting these days...
...and the kill...
