Looks like I've been registered here awhile but just starting to pay attention again. I'm from a small town in the Sacramento valley and have been hunting elk and deer since age 12, in both OR and CO. This year I started branching out with my applications and will be hunting Idaho as well, still waiting to see if I get drawn or if it will be an otc. Due to my career in ag, most all of my hunting is after Nov, but am enjoying the extra challenges that can bring.
