You been out? He's still jamming but has mostly been busy with football and basketball this fall. He also got straight As, which cost me $$. Here's another picture of his elk's antlers and a wt he took earlier. Birds up next.

That is--could you give a brief story of how you guys get close enough to the critter in the post-rut to put an arrow through it? I don't see how you do it in the middle of the wilderness like that.
