I have a crew that lives out that direction that can do the job. but my showroom is in payson. If she knows what shes looking for ill get samples to her.

Story coming.

thanks for taking the time to do a great write up, and post good pictures!!

well put. There's a lot of quiet places out there. There's a lot of wilderness that nobody ever sets a foot in each year.

yes, see our topic in the youth section right here.

sooo..... The little fella got his first junior elk tag on his first try in the draw. Needless to say he was pumped. I had a blind set up in a really dry area that holds a lot of elk, but our first shot opening morning was to glass the desert. Well it was hot down there, and we came back parched, and didn't see a thing. I had been working on him with shooting in the last couple of weeks, and had him shoot the .22 as much as possible, and taking a few cracks with the '06 with a break. He seemed to catch on quickly. So that after noon, we got in the blind. It was hot, and dry. Things were kind of slow, a herd of pigs came in, and a deer almost made it to the water before blowing out of there when my son flinched in the blind. I was about to give up hope, when as the sun was going down i heard a bugle. A few minutes later he bugled again, only this time he was probably just a couple hundred yards out. I knew they were coming in. We got set up. When they came in, they all huddled around the western corner of the tank, and my son couldn't get the rifle pointed in that direction from where he was sitting. So we waited. But the elk seemed to be turning around, and looked to be headed back the way they came, instead of coming in view. Nervous that they would not present a shot, i finally moved the bipod over so he could get a shot. I didn't quite have my fingers in my ears when the muzzle break nearly shattered my eardrum. The elk took off. We got out, and i looked for hair and blood until it was dark. Nothing. I thought for sure he missed. In the morning we chased bugles, but i wanted to get back in there before it got hot. When we got to the tank, we offered a quick prayer for guidance, and took off in the direction they ran. Still, no blood; no hair. I heared some belabored breathing, just by chance after about a hundred yards. After investigation, we found her and finished the job. I think he only got one lung on the first shot, so she made it through the night. Best case scenario; we would have lost the meat if she laid out there all night.

Nice

Yesterday, late afternoon, he took the shot but I thought he missed. There was no blood, no hair, nothing. But we went back this morning just to check and we found her. She was still breathing but down. So he put the last shot and her just this morning. Best case scenario the meat was still good.

we just dropped off at round valley processing. look them up on facebook, in payson.

unfortunately we didn't get any field photo's, but my son landed his first elk last night. props to game and fish for making the youth season!!

i hate it when you stumble on someone's lump of digestible substance under their tree stand and you look up and find out your standing in front of their trail cam inn 22 south. sorry bro.

We almost hit you near River View Ranch. Lol, i saw everyone coming. Lots of hunters out this time of year, looking for critters while driving, and not necessarily seeing cyclists.

that's frustrating. My truck got broken into 2 years ago up here and cleaned out. fortunately, i had most of my gear with me, but they got my arrows and my skb case. My car got broken into in front of my house a few months ago and they stole my son's fishing stuff. My suspisions are that druggies are selling it on ebay. There's a sporting goods dealer that used to be in star valley, who is now on ebay. I'm guessing the druggies are selling it to him, or people like him. This has become a real problem up here.

Where is the house located?

wish i'd seen this post last night. i rode my bike down dollbaby this morning from town, for a lack of anything better to do.

lol, you can say what you want about Ron, the grouchy guy by the airport, but, -he is old, and... -he gave me the best cuts of meat i've ever seen or had, on my the last elk i gave him. I didn't know the deer creek guy was gone. too bad.

i was just having this conversation yesterday at work, and our big question was, should we use the suction cup things, or not?

http://blackdiamondequipment.com/en_US/trekking-poles/trail-sport-3-BD1121910000ALL1.html#start=19 i've been happy with these. my friend said don't get carbon poles, they flex too much under a load, which is a no go when you have an elk quarter on your back in steep terrain.

i use the black diamond collapsible poles. i can hook them to loops on the side of my pack when not in use, and grab them for when i got an elk quarter on my back. they will save you.

most box stores sell absolute junk. Check out products from Armstrong like Luxe, look at Paradigm, Bealieu, or Shaw's floorte. While none of these products are cheap, they are all very legit. https://www.facebook.com/mountainhomeinteriors/ Come by my store and i'll give you a CWT discouunt.

Did a little riding this weekend.

I went to sparky's last week. Nothing like a good green chile cheeseburger.
