RE: A must read. first big time elk hunt heads south.
Great job bailing him out Robert! That guy is lucky you came around. Hopefully you or the wife will get an elk down this season. She has that gimme tag right? <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle> Glad to hear you are getting out and finding elk, good luck!

Way to go Robert! Seems to me the outfitter should
have thrown a little cash your way. Looks like you
did the job his guide should have been doing. On hunts
that I have been on, occasionally a guide would leave
you but he would always say dont move from this spot.

Nice job, Robert. You are a gentleman and a first-rate outdoorsman. I wasn't able to hunt elk this year (new baby girl), but I will be back in Montana next fall. If I'm anywhere near you (I will hunt either the Gravellys or the Tobacco Roots), I'll give you my cell phone number. Let me know if you get one down, and I'll gladly end my season to help you pack it out.
The comraderie of outdoorsman is such that anyone can return your favor, not just the lucky guy whose ass you saved in the mountains that day.
Good Dogwork and Good Hunting

Robert its men like you who make us look good. You went way beyond just helping him. Who knows this guy & other who have heard this story will someday be the kind of man you are. I'm sure he realizes the dire straights he was in. May God bless you for your actions! I hope someday we meet. You can know a man by his actions in times of need, it shows what character he has or doesn't have.

Just saw this topic. Good job Robert, you're a true gentleman and hunter. I'd say God has already blessed you for your christian actions and behavior.
