We woke up early one day last week, and found it colder than The Wife(tm) wanted to sit out in, but she didn’t want to give up her planned hunting time, so we fired up the truck and went for a drive along some trails down south of here known to hold a very heavy… Read More »
So, early early this morning, long before all the lazy road hunters were up and around, The Wife and I head up into the mountains in search of mulies. Hiking in before daylight, legs burning, we get positioned way up the mountainside looking down on an area we’re almost 100% certain will hold some bucks… Read More »
Tonight, we had a fairly big hunting party. It was me, a buddy, my wife, and a friend of hers who was just tagging along (ie: not hunting). We head down to a spot where I’d found a lot of rub activity going on. We set up in two groups – me and my friend,… Read More »
So, entirely too early this morning, we headed out to go try for my wife to fill her LEH cow elk tag. Bleery eyed and yawning, we hiked in through the wee morning light, and setup near a promising looking game trail that had fairly fresh elk sign on it. Got super still, and waited.… Read More »

Wednesday however, we had… Read More »

Yesterday I found this spot that’s just goregous for mule deer hunting. It’s a whole mountainside that got burned off quite a few years ago, and from… Read More »
So, this morning, I decide I’m too sick and tired of hunting elk and never seeing anything. So I drive to this spot only a couple miles from town for a nice little hike through a creekbed. Whitetails like valleys, and I’ve seen a nice little 5×5 back in the pre-season who runs around down… Read More »
Setup in my favourite spot, wind perfect, scent-killer on, etc. Wait a LONG time last night, and starting to think nothing’s gonna show up. About half an hour before dark, a doe and fawn come along. I briefly entertain the idea (either-sex arehery in regiion 4), but conclude that I just ain’t that kind of… Read More »
