    How many hunters have you called in?

    Couple years back we were set up low.  Started calling,  no real bulls answered and one I'm guessing new guy couldn't help himself.  He bugled every couple minutes and started heading straight for us,  never checking his wind I'm pretty sure because the thermals were blowing straight to us.  He...

    Wild fires and logging have impacted my state over the past 20 years. 2012 was no different fires swept through several units and sent hunters blindly searching for game outside the "box" they called hunting camp.  With the influx of hunters we experienced this year makes me skeptical on next...

    What's your favorite type of 3D shoot?

    Will wounded Elk travel uphill?

    To my amazement yes they do.  How is it possible for a mortally wounded animal to head straight up the mountain?  All logical thinking is that they would want to take the easier route?  I have seen first hand that they will travel up hill from were they have been hit.  A good thing to keep in...

    The worst sound you can hear hunting elk

    After a long week of smoke filled mountains and displaced hunters filled our area we decided to set up in our favorite "Honey hole".  Surly a rag horn or cow will be close as always...  When my partner started the sequence calls and then we heard it.  A wolf howl cut him of as soon as he...
