    Against all odds: my 2023 season

    Some campers had spent the night where we wanted to glass. So Instopped and talked to them while my buddies hiked up the hill to glass. While were talking I see a moose in the timber. Hes working his way into the bog and it ends up being the two bulls from the previous night. I take my bow and...

    Against all odds: my 2023 season

    Sunday was a new day. Honestly the best part of hunting with friends is they can help pick you up when youre down or other things happen. So we were back out and excited for a little weather to blow in.

    Against all odds: my 2023 season

    And missed! Unbelievable. The moose was at 40 yards and it seemed the arrow nose dived underneath him. I think I must have hit a twig in the hole I was trying to shoot through. Both bulls spooked off out of the bog and into the timber. I was pretty crushed. We had an hour or so of light left and...

    Against all odds: my 2023 season

    We eventually figure out its two bulls and theyve found a spot in there thats pretty good place to hide. They fed close to our side of the drainage as we sneaked close. It was impossible to be dead silent and one bull knew something was up there. I eventually made it to 40 yards. I was in the...

    So in keeping with old adage of you dont leave elk to find elk, we were heading to a glassing point near where wed been seeing the bulls. A camp wed talked to flagged us down kn the way and told theyd just seen a bull in the willows right where we were headed. So we booked it over there, didnt...

    Against all odds: my 2023 season

    At this point we decide to go check some other areas out. So we hiked into a few different meadows and ponds off the roads. Almost every pull out had a camp and we tried to talk to most people. Most were friendly, some werent. My friends did a little fishing while I made one big hike up to a set...

    We decide to keep working some areas further down. I go into a spot to call and found some sign and an old logging road that became key to hunting the drainage.

    Against all odds: my 2023 season

    I eventually meet up with my buddies. One ran into the bull I had come in after he buggered off from me and got a video of him and 20 yards. My other friend had 2 bulls come right in front of him while in the truck. One bedded down in the willows but some passerbys saw him and spooked him trying...

    Supposed to be good numbers of moose but nothing like some of the Southern units for numbers and size. Cant be too picky up there.

    Against all odds: my 2023 season

    Throughout the trip we met 3 other bull tag holders and 1 cow tag holder. 2 guys were local and said they were holding out for monster bulls and would hunt into the rifle season. Neither had a bull they were seemingly after on opening day. I was bowhunting for about 5 days and while I could...

    Against all odds: my 2023 season

    So Friday afternoon and evening we covered a lot of ground either hiking or with the truck. My friends saw nothing except more elk hunters than you can count. We honestly were floored by the number of elk hunters out there. I made a 4 mile hike and found a spike and a cow coming out of the woods...

    Thats awful. Im so sorry. I wish theyd get reported for harassing hunters. Reminds me of the Hug a Hunter commercials from years ago CPW used to put out.

    Colorado Bighorn Sheep 2023

    Like they saw you hunting them and scared you off? Or were just jacking around with them? That really sucks regardless. Colorado is getting crowded
