Hey Ronnie, the crew did a good job this year! I saw the pics on John's FB. Drink a cold one for me!

Awesome bull! Glad to here Ron scored on a great bull. Hopefully I can get my but back out there and get a crack at a nice one. I was hoping to go over and see you guys at camp last weekend but time got away from us. Dave

Here is another one, I hope you enjoy it.

Congrats!! Good to see someone filling their tag! Elk are bugling a little more. Some areas more than others. Still not great. This is unit 10 right..... Everybody we talk to is still having a hard time. We got into elk monday night Tuesday morning. Had a few good callins.

Tues and Wednesday found a couple bulls worthy of putting a tag on. We're focusing on them. Unfortunately they are not bugling much. They go silent after 6:30 am bugle a couple times in the day and nothing at night. Trying to be patient and not push them. Had a good set up this morning. Got up really early got into position. Bulls were headed right for us. We thought the stars were aligned. When a truck drove by, twice. Bulls stopped calling and hear we are. Good news though, saw 2 big bulls leave in the back of a couple truck on Monday when I was coming back in. Congrats to those guys! Got me excited again!

I thought I would add a few more pictures of the bull for those of you who have been viewing this post. We are still on cloud nine with this bull. For those of you who have been wondering, this was a self-guided bull in Unit 10. Thanks to a lot of great people we used all their information and put in the hard work to secure this beautiful animal.

Heading back to unit 10 for the last 4 days of the hunt. Hopefully the bulls will be more vocal! They shut down early and start again 30 min before dark. Had some close encounters last week but there is that one tree in the way.

Sat water 4 days in a row. Bulls are watering at night. Time to get serious! Lol!! Been running on 5 hrs of sleep a night since the 14th.

Good luck, I know what you mean. On my 09 hunt I was there for almost three weeks and running on a few hours of sleep everyday. Some nights I was too tired to eat so i would go straight to bed! I lost 12 pounds on the hunt! BEST hunting time of my life!

unfortunately it doesn't appear the temperatures are going to come down much over the next 3 days (or 10).

Stay after it HuntJunkie. We are looking forward to the pictures and the story.

Thanks! Been chasing them all morning! Always 50 yrds on the other side of a tree. Making a stalk right now. Still haven't seen or heard cows with these bulls. ????
