Bulls Only? OTC CO

I checked the moon phases too and I am hoping to hit it just right. Might be a little early for the heavy bugle but it kills me to wait.
I spent 30 hours in a tent last year riding out a September 9th snow storm so you never know! Good luck to you as well!

I'll be there with an ES tag from the 18th to the 26th. Hopefully the full moon doesn't mess us up too bad. Hoping for some cooler temps as well. Good luck to you

I will try not to put a stalk on your bugle

Nothing but a red fox today! Oh yeah....I also had a grouse hunter walk thru my camp with his 10 year old daughter and a black lab!! I think he was lost.

Any luck yesterday or today?

I spent 10 hours in the woods yesterday and saw a squirrel. Picked up a hunter on my cam this morning at 5:21! Spending time up high today. Just set up a trail cam over a wallow.

Everything is a choice and every choice has a consequence!
I have a spot designated for morning hunting. I hunted there Friday morning and I hunted there Sunday morning and I was getting concerned that I might burn out that spot. I decided to go somewhere else this morning with the plan of letting that spot calm down.
On my way in this evening, I swung by to check my cam. A super nice bull had walked by at 7:12 this morning while I was somewhere else! I am absolutely sick to my stomach!!
I'm not playing this cat and mouse game anymore. I am hunting every morning at my morning spot come hell or high water. I can't keep guessing wrong!
Try again tomorrow. PEACE

Day 6. He wasn't here at 7:12 this morning but I was. Now it's just a stubborn contest. Beautiful sunrise today.

Stick with it. I see a meeting in your future

Just went in for lunch. On the way out I busted an animal out of its afternoon bedding area. Never did see it but it sure was loud. All set up for a long evening of hunting. I just hope that guy doesn't walk thru our secret spot!

Just had 2 mule deer bucks in front of me for 20 minutes. At one point they were both 9 yds away!! A spike and a fork.....both in velvet. I was at full draw twice before I realized they were the wrong color brown. Can you see him?

Yup, sticks out like a sore thumb. Hopefully those bulls get restless and move in for some feed before dark.
