Damn CC … that sounds pretty good! I've been working away on this silly computer for what seems like forever. I think I need to retire!

^^^ Just make sure you can run faster than the guy next to you !!

^^^ Ohhhhhh Noooooo !!!! Don't say stuff like that !!! :oops:

Dang, well it still looks like a beautiful place for fun hunt on horseback!

Awesome pics CC! Did you get an elk on that trip?

I've shot a lot of animals with my ballistic tips, but the posts above have some very good advice. And even though my rifle shoots them very well, I would not use them on a bear. They definitely weren't meant for something that tough.

I have not, but it sounds great!!

I agree Jim. I always slip it in behind the that heavy shoulder bone, fairly low … top of the heart / bottom of the lungs. That's a great spot to hit 'em.

Sounds like you're going to have a lot of fun with that !

You could call them but I seriously doubt they know what's going to happen next fall. Too many unknowns at this point.

Hilltop, I'm sure that info on ballistic tips is correct. I will also say that my old 30-06 shoots 165gr ballistic tips the best and I think bullet placement is critical so I use them. I've killed a number of elk with them without issue and they all dropped basically in their tracks. So if...

Thanks Kid, I appreciate that. I understand your perspective on this thing. For me, I think It’s hard to tell what’s really happening when all the news sources skew the information to fit their agendas.

Hey, I think I gave the answer ... I wish the drawing were today, and you wish you and Ike were calling calling someone today ... Sooooo ... see where I’m going with this ? 😁

Great trophies ... awesome!!

I wish the drawing was today ... :-)

Yeah, I agree with the comments above. I think there’s a pretty good chance residents will be allowed to hunt, but like Jim said, some counties have restricted spring hunts to residents only so who knows about non-resident hunting this fall. I guess we’ll just have to plan to hunt and keep our...

To go along with my earlier comment of "whichever one you can shoot effectively"... For elk I like my Dad's old Pre-64 Model 70 Winchester in 30-06 with 165gr Noslers. It still shoots great and I've been shooting it so long and I'm so familiar with it I shoot it pretty well.

Staying in really good shape is my number one. I've been really busy at work for over a year and my conditioning is slipping. Gotta get that going again. A really big mule deer would probably be next.

Venison supper … so were the mounts kind'a like a menu? ;)

That makes it even better!!
