I too had a bad experience on a guided elk hunt several years ago. I tried to talk to the outfitter after the hunt to no avail, I also wrote several letters that were unanswered. It is partially my fault as I didn't do enough researching this particular outfitter. The references supplied by...

3 of us went to Wyoming with 5 antelope tags and I deer tag. Got the antelope (3 bucks and 2 does). But.....tag soup on the buck deer. Took 13 point for me to draw the deer tag and I had my chance, but the stars were not lined up right and a great buck is still spreading his genes in his territory!

Unseasonably warm for sure.

We have a few like that in the gene pool around here too.

Yum, Yum...freezer filler for sure. Congrats.

These bucks just started showing up at my place.

Great story! Glad you were not hurt in the accident. You have it now........elk fever!

It's called Soldierstone and if you Google it, you'll find a very interesting story about it and it's builder. A local friend (a Vietnam vet) and I visited it several years ago. It is very awe inspiring.

Wishing all my fellow Vets a thank you for your service everyday, especially Monday Veterans Day. As a 40% disabled vet, I know what you did, how you did it and why you served. Thanks again my Brothers.

I limit myself to 500 yds....that's all the further I've shot any of my rifles on paper. The longest shot I ever tried was 425 with my 25-06 at a buck antelope. One shot, dead on!

A lot of us have Ballistic Turrets (many of you don't ), here's why I do. The one thing you must have before a ballistic turret makes sense is to have settled on one load for that particular rifle. The BT is setup for one load and if you change, the point of impact (poi) will probably change...

Did you by chance look at his teeth?

I have 4 Leupolds with their Ballistic Turrets. All VXlll's, 2 4x14, 1 3x9 and a 6x20. I have shot them all out to 500 yards and all perform as I expected. No matter what range setting I use, they all shoot and return to different range settings with less than moa groups.

I have a Ruger M77 in 25-06 I bought in 1970 that has been my deer/antelope rifle since then. I have taken over 100 animals since then. I handload and use Sierra Gameking 117 gr BT's exclusively. I have had quite a few scopes on top of it. By far the best is my current one, a Leupold VXlll...

Congratulations

My condolences to you and your family. I lost my Dad in 2012 and like you he was my mentor and taught me to be a good hunter and person. I miss him every day. We went elk hunting here in Colorado the last time in 2008 when Dad was 90 and he got his last elk.

Bucks starting to show up around here. Saw three nice 4x4's with all the does last evening on my place.

The "special Irrigated land" type 6 tags are explained in the regs. I hunted this type of tag near Farson one year. I also had to get landowner permission to hunt most of the area.

Just got these back from the Taxidermist. These are from the ones we got this year and posted earlier. We traded him for the capes and paid him a little cash to boot.

Gotta be for 4th season.
