Dang

Oh and by the way congrats on your first elk Josh!

When you take the hind quarter off split some of the muscles down the femur to open it up that bone cooling off will act like a heat sink. A meat guy told me one time that the meat will start spoiling from the inside not the outside so just get it cool as quickly as you can

I'm surprised by the lack of bugles. I've heard 5bs has historically been known to be a very vocal unit. I wonder if the elk are well educated with all the folks using calls improperly?

Man I remember launching an arrow at my first opportunity at a buck. It was an epic miss but man I was hooked. Buck fever is real! Good luck tonight can't wait to see how this unfolds.

15s and a tripod are gold. It's also important to be set up ready to go at gray light / first light especially when it's warm out. Also glass until its dark. Don't be heading back to the truck until you can't glass anymore. Lots of animals don't start moving until it's almost dark. There's a lot less deer overall where you are at compared to the southern coues units. Maybe take a weekend camping trip sometime down south in a deer rich environment just to hone your glassing skills. I'm sure oz31p offered you some good suggestions as well. If you ever make it down towards Sierra Vista hit me up. I can point you to some spots where you will definitely find deer. They won't be honey holes but you will find deer.

What really sucks is us poor schlubs got nothing to look forward to until you guys are back out there....

Nice, been awhile since someone posted a live thread. Good luck.

Let's hear the story. Nice buck.

Scammers must be using AI now, that sounds like a very articulate scammer

Looks like it. Dude in the video looks pretty stoked though.

Did I get this wrong? Never tried entering or even bothered with an official score myself, but I think is correct?

No experience, but I'm pretty sure animals taken are excluded from pope and young if that matters to you.

Dude got swag

Adam, can a regular freezer work until getting it to a freeze drier?

Agreed on the right now aspect. I imagine this quota thing is a long term goal, maybe I'm wrong. I'm thinking that while archery gets closed down early bigger mature bucks out there are living and becoming studs. Not great for the OTC archery guys right now but I think that overall trophy quality will surely increase each year. Seems great for the rifle guys although I am not one. But I believe this will have a trickle effect for lack of better words and guys that play it right will start killing monsters if they put in the work in the following years. Whether that is archery or rifle. I can't believe that guys shutting down a unit early during archery that are shooting first come first serve animals are going to ruin it for the real killers out there. Honestly I see this as a huge opportunity for the guys that are willing to hunt hard and each year it will get better. But as usual I'm just another turd with a fraudulent opinion.

But with the quota now in place and guys killing dinks wouldn't that allow the guys willing to put in work and get away from roads to have chances at some studs? I'm just thinking it will still allow the animals off the beaten path to get mature?

Looks like the Donald is off the hook on this one. Woman (not surprised) pulled out in front of dude and then stopped in the road. The kid on the bike is alive no serious injuries.

Special night. All kids home and a bday. Fridays Jack Daniels chicken, Changs lettuce wraps, homemade mashed taters and Mexican rice pudding.

Very cool and congrats.

Trump rolling like 30 trucks deep with a chopper escort. Was pretty cool. Looks like a dude on a crotch rocket wrecked right after in front of the McDonald's. Hope he's ok.
