    My sons 2023 Hunt Season

    So, we've returned from a Thanksgiving week hunt back east, although we were still west of the Mississippi River. We were mainly deer hunting although having a freezer full of elk and antelope changed our game plan. Sarah and I made sure that Luke knew he had ruined our hunting season by...

    Blackhorn 209 Scam_Beware

    I just encountered a very professional scam involving blackhorn 209 powder. I had my finger on the button to initiate a Zelle transaction and last second decided to call Hodgson powder to confirm the sketchy payment process. A very kind Hodgsons representative informed me that it was...

    Sorry to hear of your loss. I hope you're successful becoming comfortable in all aspects of hunting. There's lots of info out there and someone else already said that it's mainly about getting the meat into a bag. It doesn't have to look pretty. I learn best after I've been bloodied, bruised...

    My sons 2023 Hunt Season

    Day 2: The morning of day two, Luke decided he would shoot any bull larger than a spike and that he'd shoot either sex starting on day 3. We arrived at the low gap in the ridge before daylight, again parking below and walking up about 600' in elevation. We stopped to listen where the old...

    My sons 2023 Hunt Season

    Opening morning we were up in plenty of time to drive the 15 minutes to our "Option A" at the highway location. We waited 10 minutes or so at the truck till is was barely light enough to walk down the ridge without a flashlight and towards where the elk action seemed to take place. We worked...

    My sons 2023 Hunt Season

    We started out at daylight on the morning before the opener. We briefly stopped at the nearby highway location to confirm the bulls were still bugling and in the same general location. We checked several areas but only one of them looked promising. This location was on an opposite ridge from...

    My sons 2023 Hunt Season

    I'll apologize again for not taking more photos. I'm working to add "photos" to my mental checklist for hunts. It would have been nice to have photos showing some of the locations I attempt to describe. So, we spent the rest of the day searching for good options for opening morning. I had...

    My sons 2023 Hunt Season

    We departed on Luke's elk hunt on Thursday, October 5'th to give us a little time before opening morning on the 7'th. Luke was very excited and full of confidence after his antelope hunt. It took us several hours to arrive in our Unit where we had reserved a space at an RV park centrally...

    My sons 2023 Hunt Season

    I have one final thought/comment on the antelope hunt before moving on to the elk hunt. Part of the issue with other hunters encroaching in our space was probably because the tag holders included a mix of youth and adult hunters. Many hunters were searching for antelope and had practiced...
