Thats a good looking ram in that photo. I know that a really nice ram was killed in 6a last year. Im sure you'll pull a great one out of there as well. Looking forward to the pics and a story. Good luck

Great video Gino! Just goes to prove you can take the boy out of Strawberry, but you cant take Strawberry out of the boy.

I am in awe. 99 percent of us will never even see a bull close to that size. Very impressive great job.

Years ago I hunted that unit many times in December. Saw some really good bucks and always had fun. Don't know it its still the same. The most accesible areas do get alot of pressure.

By now shes had to have her phone number shut down and personal email accounts closed. By now shes had death threats given to her and family as well. Her TV show will probably go into hiatus (sp?). She wont be able to do public appearances anywhere. She may have even hired armed security. Her carreer and personal life will be in shambles. Shell be the butt of jokes on all the late nite idiocy and at the awards shows where the other idiots sit around and kiss eachothers butt. All because she shot a lion. I started to read an online article about it and just couldnt get thru the first paragraph due to the bias and utter lack of intelligence of the author. Soon our kids will not be allowed to wear camo or hunting themed clothing to school. But by all means your neighbors 14 year old daughter will be able to get the "morning after" pill without consent or even ID. I used to think that soon, those of us level headed and moral people would take this country back. Now Im not sure we can and do we even want it anymore?

I used to love that show when I was a kid. Didnt realize how staged all that stuff was back then I guess. Why the heck were they roping it anyway?

Ive been wasting my time sitting water in the afternoons too. Usually from noon to dark. Then I waste my mornings stumbling around still hunting and trying to remember why did I ever put in for another of these late archery hunts.

That is an amazing bull!! And to do it at this time of year with a bow is even more amazing. I'm in Williams getting a tire fixed, not a good morning for me. One last hail Mary for me this evening.

Two small bulls this morning bit no chance at them. Nothing tonite.

Got into lots of elk, no bulls. Even more turkeys. deer, coyotes, a Fox and a skunk. Everything was on the move yesterday with the storm blowing thru. But it was fun.

Good luck scooter. Ill be leaving the house at zero dark thirty in the morning. Short commute for elk hunting for me.

saw the pic too heard it was from "one of the 34 units"

I only have one tattoo and I regret it. I have about a dozen mounts and not a single regret.

If you see a tired looking f-150 with a equally tired looking quad in tow that will be me. Stop and say hi.

I believe that human encroachment and drought are major factors. However the lack of any predator management will continue to decimate any herd growth. We have ridiculous fawn recruitment for those species. Look at the 3 Bar area near Roosevelt, the deer in the enclosure thrive, even with drought and a relatively small habitat. No predators in the enclosure.

Thinking about switching fletching and was looking for some input... blazers? AAE? NAP? Bohning? Also i've been noticing some guys at the range shooting 4 fletched arrows and even know a guy who 6 fletches. Do any of you shoot arrows with more that 3 vanes/feathers? Thanks.

Make sure you rub some raw bacon on your hands first. That's how the pros do it.

Since I hunt alone, the mountains have gotten steeper, the packs heavier and a cat nap midday is essential.

Thats amazing! Are you taking them all out of the same one or two units? Good job.

Well, found some bucks. But wasn't able to get it done. He gave me three tries though. Guess it wasn't his time.

No pics from me yet. Unit 8 report: 2 does, 1 coyote, 200 domestic sheep, 4 shepherds and not as many hunters as I expected. Glassed my eyeballs out. Gonna try some old school still hunting in the pines tomorrow.

I'm a tag soup coniseur. I've had just about every flavor you can think of. Sure its bitter and burns a little, but you get used to it.

So that's why our tags says antlered deer and not buck. Very cool.

Just what I needed this morning. God bless.

Right now coffee is brewing. Right now rifles are being checked. Right now someone is about to go on their first hours hunt. Right now someone is hiking to their favorite glassing spot. Right now someone is really living. Right now a giant buck is waiting for you. Good luck to all of you this morning and savor every minute.
