TFB got his first elk this season, very proud of him. We spent the season hunting with Brianut who also got a nice elk. Both were brought down within minutes of each other and made for a very interesting evening and next day.  BSD got worked, but survived "mostly" unscathed.

AWESOME!!!!!! I leave tomorrow for 2nd season. Hope we have a little luck this year. Been rushing down to the wire to get everything ready. Had to put a new scope on the rifle yesterday as my other one was broke. Time to kill something. |

Nice work. .308? I'm headed out tomorrow with a cow tag, and a buck tag I've waited 7 years to get. |

300 Blackout with Barnes hunting rounds, great under 100 yards. He called it in broadside to about 50 yards and put one right into the heart & lungs. |

Congrats! I'll save that pic so that when my hippy co-workers female dog about people never hunting with "assault rifles" I've got photographic evidence. |

Huge thank you to Hockeydad for coming by yesterday evening to help us process the quarters. TFB is doing a European mount (new name to me) with the skull and antlers, he'd like to incorporate a Bronco part into it. And then we are going to tan the hide w/hair ourselves. It's DIY or bust. |

I Euro mounted a buck skull a couple years ago. Plan for a stinky afternoon of peeling flesh & scooping brains! Fun stuff. |

My dad did a euro mount for my first elk. Just put ebbing the barn for a few days and let the magpies chew at it. Got kind of smelly. Definitely wouldn't do it in your neck of the woods. Neighbors might start asking questions. (If they don't al ready) :-) |

Elk require too much driving.

Got a decent 4x buck on Tuesday. Of course I saw a 5x5 & a 4x1 the next day, and a couple more big bucks yesterday. I'll post up a pic when I get a chance. No elk for me this year. I didn't even see one, and not much fresh sign at all. I gave up a day early. Sounds like even the local guide services are struggling to get animals. I'm going to blame the weather, super hot, running water everywhere, no snow. Oh well. |

Here is my buck, he's got double brow tines on his left side. Still need to bleach it, and glue a couple pieces back on. Not a monster, but a healthy, big bodied deer. Cooked up the tenderlions at camp the next night with bacon & some seasoning. Very good. I know there are some field pics, but I can't seem to get them emailed to me. P1020357.JPG P1020358.JPG My friend's 5x, a real "sage" buck. I had just mentioned that I had never seen 4' tall sage, when three bucks suddenly appeared. IMG_20141024_082713.jpg Both nice animals. |
