Here's a view from the treestand last night for those of you itching to get out...

Thats an awesome elk!! Hopefuly you see that shooter from a different angle soon Deadstick!

First day of season. Had a spike come in to 12 yds. Then the temps got into the 80's and I'm done for the day. It's supposed to get better this weekend. So, I'll be out Friday and Saturday.

Good luck!

Can't believe there hasn't been an entry in a week and a half out of all these hunters - I know a lot of seasons aren't open yet, but still......

You're bumming me out Dave. Somebody's got to take up the slack from my lame rockchucking episode! My buddy's back with his plane. I've been harassing him to get the floats on it but my time might be better spent researching potential spots with beaches we can land on.

Well I watched one of the big boys again tonight in the bean field, he comes out about 7:50pm. He has gone from velvet to hard horn since I saw him last. That sure makes'em shrink [:'(]lol. He'll still go mid 130's and he'll still get an arrow given the chance!

Still a nice buck gr8!

I was hoping hte spike would grow 100" or so in the 15 minutes he fed in front of me but no luck. This Saturday is supposed to be better weather wise and I'm getting into the funnel.

130" is a nice buck.

Thats cool just to have the opportunity to harvest the deer even if you chose to pass Dave! Spikes are fun to watch!

WhenI first saw the body of a deer at day break I got the shakes. I always get excited when I see deer. The little guy fed right toward me. Was definitely cool watching him.
