Charles, lets hit the river at the same time this archery season and do a float trip. I know you did good there last year and I had oppurtunties every day also. I was too far in by myself and the temps were way too high to bring an elk out without spoiling it and killing myself.
I know you and Chad camped on the south side as I was on the north.
Almost every evening I had a herd of cows and calves swim within 10 yrds of me. I didn't want a cow as I could of shot one almost every day, but I did see some descent bulls too, almost every morning, but it would of been just too much work. Maybe its just catching up with the ole man.
Stay in touch and keep practicing.

Bobby
