Heck ya! I'm excited for you man! Can't wait to see pics of a big bruiser on the ground. You and Guy toe to toe competing for the Eastmans forum big buck contest is going to be sweet!

Have an awesome trip MM! Don't forget your shovel for the snakes

So how many of you are awake thinking about an upcoming hunt rather than sleeping like you should be? I've had this problem for a couple weeks now, I guess I will be used to not having much rest by the time I go hunting!

It starts about the middle of August for me. By the time opening day rolls around, I'm pretty much used to going all day on 4-5 hours of sleep. That's what it's all about!!!! Hunting pretty much consumes all my thoughts this time of year.

I like your cold fronts better. Last week we had one day with a high of 37 and a couple inches of snow and 20 mph wind ... t-shirt weather here, lol. I thought I saved some tomato plants but they didn't make it. I tried to cover them, but no such luck.

All it did for us was let our mosquitos stay out all day long. Usually get a cold snap around the first of bow season that'll drop temps into the 40s for the AM and then bump up to the 90s after lunch.

Well, that is one good thing about the early frost. It was hell on the blood suckers. Two weeks ago I got eaten alive in the grasslands and this past weekend wasn't too bad at all.

Two more days of work, then I'm heading east! Many guys on here seem to go west for elk???

 

[Againstthewind]

I go both ways this year, East to the Black Hills and West to the Big Horns, lol. I picked up a general license for the Big Horns after I saw some trucks coming back with some really nice bulls. Have to give it a try.

 

[NVBird'n'Big]

I try to avoid going west as much as I can considering the state I border (no offense CA guys)! My wife does love the City though so I can't avoid it. When it comes to hunting all east and north for me!

All of my hunts are east of me as well

I have one west the last week of October. That should be a fun one too!

 

[packmule]

Most of my hunting will be done 100 miles to my NE, except for a little 1000 mile detour to the West.

 

[Againstthewind]

well, good luck guys sounds like a fun year.

Thats because they live east of the elk! HAHA! Good luck on your hunt!!!! I'll be heading south this year but I usually head east too!

I might be able to give him better competition on the antelope! HAHA!
