Well,
Once again the elk and deer hunting gods smiled on me!
The bull came from unit 30 1st season, the deer from unit 60 2nd season.
I used my 300 RUM on both, 180 gr TSX. both 1 shot about 200 yds.
On the bull I hiked about 3.5 mi off the road and atv trails. I was able to
to get my atv fairly close after the fact , and after skinning and quartering
got him loaded and out in the same day.
The deer I hiked a long ways and was returning back to where I left my atv
and spotted him on a small ridge he was feeding off one side and then the other I played wrong side of the ridge several times. It was getting late
so I hiked up the middle of the ridge and caught him on top.
I can't stress how important wind direction is, If they can't smell you , you can do a lot of things .

Congrats hysider, nice trophies.........

Very Nice!!

Congrats on a fine season.

Good job. Nice bull and buck. I can only hope to be as fortunate on a forthcoming New Mexico mulie hunt.

What state?

Thats a big Elk

Dimitri

Very nice!!!

Beautiful animals! How did those bullets hold up and how far did each go before they dropped?

Very nice critters. What state are those units in? I dont recognize the numbers... I'm guessing NM or CO?

WOW! You did good!

that 300 RUM freaking destroyed the opposite side of that muley...jeez! Must've caught a rib on the way out. I'm jealous...wish I still lived in CO.

SWEET! I'm putting in for a Tag for this fall, Was this hunt Guided on Non-Guided?

I have not ever had the privilege of a guided hunt or for that matter never
had a hunt on private property. There is enough public lands , to keep me busy. It's amazing what you see when you get far away from sounds of
atv's and vehicles, I like to hike into an area and do a cold camp for a
couple of days or as long as the weather doesn't get to testy.
But I do like to set up where I can get my little honda somewhat close
to minimize the meat back packing factor. I was able to get it about a mile
away, underneath the elk so I was able to get quarters down to it with few problems , ( last years bull was a 11 mi pack, boned it out and 6 trips later
it was out) here is picture of last years.
Feel free to ask questions as I enjoy helping people where to
hunt, as I get as much enjoyment out of other peoples successes
as I do my own

Nice Bull, Charlie. What State was that taken? I hunt non-guided. For Obvious reasons $$$. We usually Hunt Wyoming for Mule Deer, Medicine Bow Range. Region W. I would like to try other States . Montana is on my wish list as well.
