    Sheep Hunting With Bow or Rifle?

    I drew a bighorn tag in ‘11 I had a bow in camp but not once did I consider bringing it on the hunt. I ended up shooting my ram on day 12 with my 25-06 at 13 yards. No way would have been able to come to full draw and kill him, he would have got away

    Who taught you to hunt?

    My dad thought me the basics, move slow, keep the wind in your face, read sign and how to shoot. The rest I learned on my own. The basics have served me well.

    Let's see the best elk you have on trail camera.

    Looks like he liked lower elevations in June. I often wonder where the bulls go after the rut where I typically hunt. They sure don’t stick around much after mid October.

    My letter to ODFW.

    IMO if you can consistently kill deer and elk in Oregon you are one hell of a hunter. It’s getting very tough to do these days.

    My letter to ODFW.

    I don’t think that change will gain much revenue, Most people apply for the most sought after tags and use general bow season as back up hunt. Nearly everyone I know does that, especially rifle hunters.

    New from Oregon

    Welcome, not many Blacktail hunters here. I used live to hunt them. The burns last summer should really help where I used to hunt. It had grown over so bad it wasn’t good anymore.

    Stepping my game up

    I stopped trying to beat the wind. I have more encounters now than I did when I tried to keep the wind in my favor. Where I hunt it’s nearly impossible after 9:00 am to keep the wind right, constantly swirling Another thing I’ve learned is mid day seems to be when I have had several of my close...

    32 Hour Blacktail Hunt (What Would You Do?)

    My tactics change with time of season and weather. I use most every trick in the book. My least successful tactic is glassing, the most successful is still hunting timber.
