Headed west again !!
« on: May 30, 2025, 09:11:47 am »
Didn't think we would draw a tag this year because of the changes in CO. We knew if we didn't draw their was no over the counter tags so wasn't sure if we would go west our not. but as luck would have it and odds very much not in our favor Beau and I both drew elk tags in and area we haven't hunted but have a good friend that has hunted it the last 3 years and killed 2 Elk, he also got drawn so we plan on hunting together. It's been 3 years since we got to hunt with Griff and really looking forward to that. Now time to get in mountain shape and of course make a couple of bows for the trip. Probably be going the first 2 weeks of September maybe a week earlier depending on when the smoke pole season opens, don't want to be there for that. :) :)

Congratulations, Pappy!  I don't find out until June 2 whether I drew or not.  If not, I might take a year off from hunting elk.  The general area around here is really frustrating to hunt since they legalized crossbows.  I usually see about 10 hunters for every elk, and it just isn't that fun.  We'll see.
