Nebraska “slam” attempt

[Nick87]

Back in the early 2000s my dad drove a T600 with an N14 Cummins, Super 10, and 4:11 rear end. I think that was pretty much the best pulling truck he drove, I suppose because of the low ratio differential. Wasn't much to look at, but great in the hills!

My old man had a 378 setup the exact same way. That was everyone's favorite truck to drive

We have some million mile t600’s to pull hoppers with. Nothing wrong with them. One has a 60 series Detroit and it’ll pull right with this w9 even with 1.3 million on it.

Well, did the park brakes hold? Where is the pics of the bull you scouted tonight and put to bed?

Yep they held. No activity tonight. I got 1 bull to bugle about a mile across a canyon. It was hot and will be tomorrow. I’ve got 3 wallows that have been stirred up recently in a fairly small area so I’m hoping we can slip in close in the dark and at least catch them out of the corn fields early in the morning. I haven’t even got eyes on a bull I’d shoot early in the season yet. Maybe I shoulda been more focused on hunting rather than posting nonsensical things on this thread.

When I say “we” I mean my right hand man and caller. His short legs and wandering eye for rocks, bugs, and small critters make him lag behind sometimes though.

That’s quite the alpine landscape there in the background.

No kidding. There are elk there? Maybe he really doesn't know how to elk hunt and thinks he is still whitetail deer hunting?

It’s basically vertical. Just the camera angle throws it off.

What are you getting, like 30 miles of vertical everyday?

That’s the industry standard for you influencer types.

Only shirtless. With a shirt on I only do 20 miles a day.

Here’s your vertical @Backofbeyond from where i’m standing to the rim of the other side is 200 yards, and it’s 240’ to the bottom. Nothing big, just straight up and down.

And yet your still in the wrong spot because I see no bulls. Go deeper

Someone put up a meme of an elk standing at his truck parked by the flat cornfield

Absolutely brutal. There's no way a mere mortal, such as myself, could handle that much up and down. I'm truly in awe of your dedication and drive.

Pretty much everyone west of the front range on HT right now is probably going "hold my beer, I bet I can jump that canyon in two leaps"

I’m staying up top unless I see one or hear a bugle. Kinda like the guys in the movie hall pass. Gotta pace myself.

For someone who hasn't shot an elk yet, I don't know how you can be as wise as a guy who has shot 50....only the old wise elk hunters know that secret
