That is awesome. I asked my son the same thing about our whitetail hunts. He missed for years at chip shots and the first deer he ever hit was about 150 yards away and dropped her. Good for you for taking him hunting. I will never forget those times afield with my children.
Look up what a plyometric box is and build a couple of them for about $60. Put your pack on and up and down while watching tv or put it outside and watch your neighbors. I live in the sticks and thats what we did months in advance for our trip. Our legs felt great in Colorado but you will in no...
I am that guy that when I get a cold it turns in to something awful, bronchitis is a blessing compared to pneumonia. This year we banished the grandkids from the house, 2 of them are in elementary school and all those snot nosed kids were not going to ruin my year long planned trip. We do not...

That is borderline child neglect and I like it! Fill that tag and have him help packing it out while you sit in the car:hump: Tell him Happy birthday from all of us!

WHAT DO YOU MEAN???? How can you even attempt to go hunting without the latest Beta tested gear? Just for that I am hunting next year in my redwings and jeans. BTW, if you were wearing that monocle and flaunting the pocket watch, I had visions of the monopoly man elk hunting if you were to throw...
:hump:That is awesome. I know 50 year old men who probably couldn't hold a candle for this fellow. That is a walking history book right there. Imagine the changes that gentleman has seen in his time.
I was in your boat two years ago. I read and about had myself convinced not to go because there is obviously no elk in Colorado. Others here will tell you the same, pick a unit that you like and just go. The odds of killing an elk with a bow, your first time out is slim. Me and my wife went...
I wish that in the area if the country I live in more people would understand this. They are of the belief, that the Government should own no land and only fund the military, defense contractors R&D programs and farm subsidies. The want us to resemble Europe is the only thing I get from these...
Seems funny to me that a man with only 160 acres has upwards of 1000 cows. Then said man, refuses to pay more than $1,000,000 back for past due fines and penalties.
I’d rather they add the fee whenever a I submit my application and then if not drawn, credit my amount back. No lost checks no lost revenue. I don’t want a bunch of people applying then have no funds when it’s time to pay up. Then I’d have to start looking on a leftover list or something similar.
It happens everywhere!!!! I have commented on this before, even down here in the deep south. The world of sportsmen is full of AZZZZZZES. We have them pull their boat on top of us while we are on fish all the time. Funny thing is watching them run up on the sandbars wide open and kick the lower...
Well I am the absolute worse knife sharpener in the world. My kids bought me the Work Sharp and I can finally sharpen a knife. I have tried stones and just can't get the touch.
Man we went out west for our first elk trip this year. Stopped in Trinidad (we will reroute or keep driving next time) and pulled in to a hotel just to sleep in the parking lot since it was 2:30 AM. Pulled around back to see a big bear raiding the dumpster after he had the munchies from the weed...
Character and Integrity are the only two words that come to mind for you Sir. It would have been easy to sneak the meat out but how many nights of sleep would you have lost. Your conscience and piece of mind are worth more that an elk tag and the minimal fine. Also, big kudos to the Montana FWC...
