Hey Rocky. I'm in full on elk mode spend a few days in archery and had a close call with a nice bull but he just wouldn't clear all the way for a shot...called him in to close..dang it! Rifle opens tomorrow but unforuntatley work has me saddled here dreaming instead. My group is rubbing it in hard as they saw a number of elk today on recon including 2 decent bulls. Heading up on the weekend for almost a week of bliss. Bulls saturday sunday, then monday it turns to cow or bull in our zone. Down to the last package from last year so need to restock...yum!
Been out bowhynting a little for deer since it opened sept 1. Did manage to harvest a dry doe with the bow last sunday in the SMZ, couldn't pass up the under 15 yard shot she offered me. So far nothing special for bucks in that area. Found a few elsewhere though, muzzie season opens at the end of the month.
No draws this year for me, so after elk it will be just whitetails. May help a couple buddies try and fill moose tags in the farmland..we'll see.
Take Care
