why the code name

[belshawelk]

probably done before, but always curious what the reason for the code name

Belshawelk - Belshaw is the creek through my property, and it has elk ( my favorite species to hunt)

Share if you care to do so.

[hank4elk]

1978. Local Mt guys said " Hank has a hankering to go elk hunting", so I got a OTC tag and we went.
As we were setting up camp a 5x5 ran into the camp. I shot it @ 50 yards with my 30-30 Win.

Wildebeest. Because the alternative name, “gnu”, just isn’t very intimidating .

Got my first Brittany in 83 and hunted chukar a LOT with that bloodline until a few years ago.

To troll you tunnel vision, frown-billed old farts that tie every single negative action to some young flatbrim wearing knucklehead.

[TN2shot07]

Mine isn’t as creative as some of you guys, just fond of a second shot. Growing up there were a few times where it was because the first one was a warning, it’s gotten a little better though!
