I was sitting in my blind in unit 8 last weekend and heard a few bugles. Seemed a little early to me.

Here are a few of the better pics from where we plan to hunt elk and deer this year. First rubbed bull of the year.

If you look back at my other posts you can see this bull before and after he damaged his horn.

Congrats!

Here are a few pics from our deer and elk cams. Can't wait till the 19th!

We had thousands of pics for our 4 cameras. All 4 were dead after 5 weeks in the woods. Here are just a few of the pics we got.

Finally got out to collect a few pictures from the elk cams this weekend. We had over 5000 pictures since the first part of April. I was shocked to see that we had several pictures of a bull missing about 1/2 of his rear leg. I think we have pictures of him from last year in the same spot with all 4 legs. We have lots of deer this year as well as elk and turkeys.

Hey Blake, I am using the little Tasco cams (same size as the bushnell's), they take 4 or 5 AA batteries. I had one cam out for almost 6 months and it took over 1500 pics and was still going. They aren't the greatest pics, but the cams seem to work good. We got them for 79.99 on sale last year, and I think they were a good buy. I like my Moultries better, but the 6 D batteries get really expensive to replace every 4 weeks. The biggest problem for me, they are only good to about 15ft in the dark. Aside from that, they are great.

That is a sweet looking bow! I am a big fan of Bear Bows, but the new ones just don't feel right to me. Too bad cause I really liked my Truth 2, and wanted to buy the Carnage this year.

been out a lot since the first weekend, still no sign or pics.

He is not big, but the first one I have got on cam.

Anyone seen any sign yet? We are headed out for a few more days.....

My wife, buddy, and I all drew unit 8 archery cow. Its the next best thing to an archery bull tag. Had the same tag last year and had a great time!
