Utah and Wyoming Success

[schlaggerman]

Just returned from a combination Utah elk hunt and Wyoming mule deer hunt. I was fortunate to be successful in both states. I shot the Utah spike bull from our spike camp several miles in. A nightmare pack out through fallen timber. Glad it was a smaller elk. The Wyoming mule deer was taken opening day as he descended a chute through the rock cliffs to feed in a large meadow. The deer pack out was much easier, all down hill. Now to pat myself on the back a little bit...both animals went down within sight, elk was double lunged and the mule deer shot through the heart.

No training wheels on your bow! Well done buddy!

Nice both kills with stick and string. Now that is hunting.

Congrats, hoping to help my uncle and cousin accomplish the same thing in a couple of weeks.

Great job! That is quite an accomplishment with a recurve.

Is that a Dwight Schuh hunting pack you are using?

Nice work (tough work but worth it)!

Congratulations! That is great.

Bakpakr, Yes that is a Dwight Schuh pack. You know us old guys, we can't get rid of anything. If it ain't broke why fix it? I realize new designs probably do a better job but my Schuh pack and I get along fine.

Congrats! I think you'd probably hunt circles around most young guys.
