Montana elk from opening weekend of rifle season. I was the "blind squirrel" on Sunday. Luck trumps skill, especially limited skill, all day, every day.

Congrats my friend...


I hope I get to see this one on TV.



Best part: when its cold, snowing and miserable, and the elk are moving, you can be inside, by the fire, watching football! grin

Very Nice ! Congrats

Your show & now the podcasts are great! My son & I listened to podcasts on our annual Colo hunting trip a few weeks ago, makes the drive much more enjoyable...hearing someone who is passionate and gets fired up from time to time about things that matter is refreshing & entertaining!

Thank you for the message that you are preaching, it's a shame that most of the other "hunting" shows don't share the same message that you & your program is promoting.

Whatever it took, it turned out the same. Good job Randy.

Holy cow.....or is that holy bull - a 7x7 on public land. Congratulations on that terrific elk.

I saw the title of your post and all I thought was that it would be great if I was the lucky blind squirrel this weekend in Colorado. The last couple of years it seems That I zig when I should have zagged - nice when it works the other way.

Yours is without a doubt my favorite hunting show on TV. Keep up the good work.

Wow! Great bull there.

Only opportunity I've had like that I had to pass due to range and probably a 40 mph cross wind. Still a good hunt though, as there was a 6 by at around 100 yds. Maybe next year.
