cflores Report post Posted October 17, 2012 Still recuperating from this hunt, so I will make it short reading. Headed out a couple days early for my daughters 6A youth cow hunt, and did not see much. Opening morning brought horrible weather, we hunted in the rain, snow and hail. She never got down and just pressed on. We saw more deer than anything else, and only two elk opening morning before shooting light. We walked, walked some more, and walked a lot more. Come Sunday, everyone in our camp decided to pack up mid day and head home so that our kids could make it to school on Monday morning. While packing up I suggested to my daughter that we hunt the rest of the afternoon, and I promised that I would have her home for school on Monday. Before I go any further with this short story I want to say a huge THANK YOU to: my buddy’s Art G., Tom M., and of course my Compa JP Vicente of BIG CHINO Guide servicefor his words of motivation, and our new friends Mike J., Vince and Mark, without them it would not have been possible. And,most important Thank You JESUS for always protecting and providing for my family always !!! Amen. So, we headed back out and this is what happened !!!
