What did you do today to work towards your elk success?
I like it. Some of the exercises are a bit much but I substitute them with what I can do. It's nice having my workouts programmed year round knowing that heading into September I'm going to be ready to go.- sjl2012

They were bugling like crazy in the evening then the next morning not a...- sjl2012

2024 Elk Meat Pole
September is approaching it's end and and the last 11 days were pretty special. My wife took her first two elk with a bow and I managed to actually hit one as well.

Scenario: What Do You Do?
The impatient me draws my bow, then barks at him with the anticipation he stands up and turns left. The patient me looks at the shade, clouds in the sky, the slope going away from me and anticipates a changing, possibly swirling thermal busting the bull in the next 30 seconds, draws my bow then...- sjl2012
