 Archery Success The last couple of months have been spent scouting and prepping for our annual 2 week hunting trip for elk. I have an Uncle and Cousin in California that comes out for the muzzy season while his son and I hunt elk with a bow. We were "into" elk multiple times and each had some close encounters through the times. Mine eventually fell together one evening on this 5x5.  It was turning hot and dry so I hunted a water hole that scouting had uncovered and he came in 5 mins before legal light ended. The practice paid off and a perfect double lung hit at 40 yards was the result.  70 yr old uncle with the fall colors.  Though the pack out was relatively easy compared to some of the others I had done, we still didn't get back to camp until 1:30 AM.Saturday Morning. The trip wrapped up Sunday night , packed up Monday and arrived home at about 2 to finish the processing and are now settling back into a "normal Life" for a few weeks until waterfowl starts ramping up ! Lots of forum reading to catch up on! Good luck to you other hunters getting ready in the next several weeks Brett

Re: Archery Success Thanks all. There are plans for some jalapeno and cheese summer sausage, Some snack sticks and jerky. I'll be ordering the supplies for those soon :) I'll be catching up on the forum happenings when the avalanche of work I am currently digging out from subsides a bit. this is the pain part of having 2 weeks off. Sharing a pic of the celebratory fire and consuming of beverage. The guest of honor probably would have preferred to be some place other than where he was. lol  Brett
