    Last fights of 2017

    Went out earlier today and got some footage of where a hot doe has to be. There were 12+ bucks in the area and it is amazing how many the one wide guy fought off. Also interesting how nice he was to that spike who wanted to spar... A couple of the bigger bucks never even got up. All the...

    My 2016 Buck

    Well in 2016 the stars aligned and I was lucky enough to have a archery hunt that ended up with a great buck and amazing story. I was also fortunate enough to have the story/pics published in the 2016 back country edition or July/August edition of Eastmans. Took around 15+ days of scouting...

    Scouting 2017

    I ended up pushing a atv with a broken belt several miles off a mountain pass this past weekend - just part of the adventure and a good workout i guess lol.. So not many pics from the trip just a few elk. Passes have melted out for the most part and summer has returned to the high country.

    Scouting 2017

    Well it is that time again and pry my favorite time of the year to get out in the high country.

Hot dry weather the...
