Fullfan apparently hunts in the same place I do. Covered in snow and darn near vertical. I'm telling you, I like the pic's of the dead bulls on what appears to be flat ground. Most of the time I have to tie mine off so they do not slide to the bottom..
Don't gobble at me

I'd rather be a free man in my grave, than living as a puppet or a slave....

great pictures guys. I leave in 9 days and this thread did not help my case of elk fever!
What you do today is important, you are trading a day in the rest of your life for it.

Now that I live in a flat place full of box blinds, this is what I dream of when I dream about hunting. Would have definitely complained less as a kid if only I had known.
If you died tomorrow, what would you have done today ...

Luck....is the residue of design...

I took this while bowhunting deer a few years ago. These were satellite bulls following a real monster who was farther up the hill with his 20 cows. This 6x6 would have been a herd bull in most places. This was from about 80 yds. If I'd had a tag, I'm pretty sure I could have crawled within range. While he's looked toward me, he didn't see me. He's actually looking at some cattle behind me.
