Day 1- brother hiked in to a nice big bowl area with images of a good bull on camera hangin in a wallow. Hiked in 2-3 hours before daylight as the bowl doesn't lend well if you're not in place by any ounce of daylight. Let's out a series of lost calf/cow calls a few times at shooting time, real soft like. Does this 1-2 more times over the next hour. At just 8am on the nose 15yds in front of him was a big ol wolf checkin to see the haps. He drew on it (has a valid tag) and he decided to let him go. I guess there were a few more up above at further distances and this was the "scout" so to speak. What a way to start the season. Needless to say, he's probably relocating due to predation!!! Yikes!
....myself I go out Monday and leave at 3am can't wait
