Default 4...3...2...1... the count down is on

The opening of Colorado Archery Elk season is almost here. Has anyone else been threatened with divorce or having that bugle tube shoved down their throat? I have been. Oh well, I can still practice in my auto on the way to work and back. Come on Sept. 16. Unfortunately, I can't spend the whole month out there so I will have to wait until then.

Yep, countdown is moving quickly here in Montana. I had schedule my current job, a 2 month long project to finish this week and take all of September off. However, my windows came in late setting as back 4 days, countertops for kitchen have added two more, and this and that has me working the first week of September.[:@] Oh well, I still am fortunate with the time I get to hunt.

Good Luck to all, Shato I know where you are headed Good Luck there and let me know how you did when you get back. I am going to throw a Leupold on that 300 and shoot it this year maybe I will get comfortable with it.

1elkhunter I am familiar with your wife story mine back in the 80's said she left because of my fishing?? I can't say that I miss her though. The bugle story also reminds me of when I use to practice my duck call going into work I think people though I was smoking pot on my ride in. Looks funny on the other side I would imagine. anyway good luck.

I havent found a state that is still issuing license and tags for anything right now, so Im stuck prepping for next year, probably bagging a hog next summer here on island. Hopefully I get to do a mainland hunt before I go back to Iraq next summer.
