Is anyone hunting this year?
PEARL DRUMS:
Now I just need to talk myself into shooting at a deer. The older I get, the more I watch them. Im not covered up in deer and can go weeks between opportunities within 15-18 yards. I tell myself, "next buck that comes by is getting one sent his way". Then that time comes and he just breezes by me. I must be getting soft, and/or lost my desire to take more deer.
killir duck:
Woohoo! Only 18 more days! I'm heading to the breaks for the opener to hunt elk, then coming back home for a couple weeks to hunt muleys and antelope, the last week of September I'll head back to the breaks for 10-12 days, then home again and then can rifle hunt antelope for a couple more weeks, then I'll pull out the old ruger m77 and head for the rough country after the big muleys.
Little John:
Great, I am shooting well, this mornings scouting was really encouraging, I procured permission to hunt the very promising private property I scouted this morning with miles and miles of BLM land and canyons behind it., been doing bike rides and hiking. Was finding lots of elk sign then smelled something dead, looked around and there was a dead bull elk, I want to belive it was lightning struck, but maybe poached. Three miles from the house. I want to pack in five gallons of water for camping and drinking (hunting the desert is different) every thing else can be ultra lite backpacking. Kenneth

Sounding promising, Kenneth. Maybe Elkie will get her christening this season. 8)
Little John:
I think so Pat.
