Congrats on the buck Hia, can't wait to see the pics!

As for myself. I haven't had much luck on my quest for a cow elk. I've got close to the a few times but they rarely stay in the field more than a few minutes after legal light so getting a shot has proven tough. This morning a buddy and I went back to try again. We've got some snow up here and the animals have really started hitting the feedbag. In the end, all we saw were two bulls, two moose and a bunch of whitetails.

After the elk flop at dawn this morning we headed for some alfalfa/stubble fields we nicknamed the magic hill because deer magically appear out of nowhere at all times of the day. We both have mulie doe tags and before we even got set up we had spotted a small group of mulies. after a short stalk and a minute to set up the video camera we counted to three and shot at the same time.

Mine dropped right away and my partners went down shortly after his second shot. Here are the pictures from this morning along with the pics of a 1 1/2 old doe I got last weekend.








The best part of the elk hunting so far has been all the kick*ss whitetail spots we've found. In the past week we've secured permission on about 30 quarters, so we should be able to find a few decent bucks in november. I think i'll wait until december to bother the elk again.
