trphyhntr Report post Posted December 23, 2020 I feel kinda bad because I could have made it a lot more interesting and more updates here. But, I hadn’t seen that other hunter. I wasn’t sure how he was doing, I knew we were doing good and I didn’t really want him to catch wind and come over and hunt. It’s a big area but at the same time it wasn’t. As far the size goes, we had our chance at an over book Ram on the 5th day. I had a lot of help, all I really did was organize it and I got all the proper permits for us. I tried to get a jimmy johns size group but it ended up being my dad and I, along with 1-3 other dudes at a time. Wish2hunt, Len, Dave, Donnie, whom I have never met, went way out of their way to help us. And my 2 friends Justin and Zack also came a few days. this is what it looked like where I was glassing from all day, almost everyday. looking north the pics make it look smaller and not steep, but its some steep rugged stuff. 9 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Listen to this then. the first weekend on his way out Wish2hunt sends a pic of all the optics he was bringing. He said I’m bringing x amount of “glass.” So the next weekend he hits me up and says he’s coming out, have a cocktail ready. I said cool. He said you guys need anything, I said no just bring your glass. This guy shows up a couple hours later with a glass for me to pour a drink in. I about died laughing. I just meant the binos lmao 5 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

These were the nicest dudes I’ve ever hunted with and all good hunters. Wish2hunt misses nothing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
