Guess we know what 7mm bullet to use for elk. No flies on that one.
Talking to you is like trying to nail jello to the wall.

awesome stories. enjoyed them greatly. I would love to go on an elk hunt again.
Only been on one that was in unit 23 at White Rocks, NM.
I've relived every moment of that hunt many times.
I was fortunate to kill a nice 6x7. Wasn't a monster, but really nice.
Maybe i'll get to do it again one day. your stories sure gets me eager.

Glad you all enjoyed it though. We had a pretty great deer hunt the last week of November on a Idaho whitetail as well....I might have to post a story up for that hunt. It’s that time of year where we’re all starting to get some cabin-fever. Dave

Awesome, Thank you. Enjoyed immensely. You might want to sell that dirt bike. We need you around to keep living and writing the stories.😏
Just because I am wandering around doesn't mean I am lost.

Wonderful write up, I lived and hunted Idaho from 75 until 2007, when I retired and moved. Been back a couple of times but have been unable to score. Your pictures makes me smile, you were in great country, obviously at the right time.vAgain congratulations on a great season.

Iddave,
Thanks for posting your hunting stories here. They were entertaining and they make me look forward to next fall.
Congratulations to you, your son, and your pals who took game this year.
Regarding your spill on the bike, Ive spent some time also upside down below a single track when the foot peg on my Fat Cat hooked a stump. Glad you weren't too banged up.
To me, there really isn't anything like the mountains of Idaho, a good wall tent, and a good fire.
Thanks again!
