Congrats on both and thanks for the write up. Sounds like a perfect day

I’m going to go with hacked. I have spoken with and dealt with the actual UggRedBilly but caution for sure at this point with the account issue

To answer your question, yes the results show up faster in E-Tag

Tract makes nice glass. Not as bright as the Zeiss conquest but dang near, and neck and neck in clarity to my eyes. Maybe people are waiting for draw results, but this is a good deal. GLWS

I won the lottery this year and drew a late 12AW rifle tag. This fall has been a mess with a lot of family things going on, including my father in law having a stroke, so it’s been very touch and go season hunting wise. I knew going in I didn’t have the full season to hunt so I tried to keep my expectations reasonable. @buglethemin came through and made the trip up, giving up family time and spending thanksgiving in a tent. We saw some huge bucks scouting. Opening morning we saw some does where we had seen a monster buck with does the night before. The does were moving down a finger. We followed the does out, and saw a few smaller bucks and this guy in some oak thickets, but we didn’t get a real good look at him but could tell from the body he was big. They fed down the finger and down the slope to a draw to our right, then up the slope of the next finger. There was a clearing about 175 yards away and he stepped out and we got a better look at him. I decided he was the deer for me, and took the shot. He dropped, and I put another in to be sure. Just like that, the hunt was done. Could not be happier with this guy and can’t wait to go back some day.

My wife has a 16” 308. Shoots factory 150s chronographed around 2650 fps. Most bullets have an expansion range requiring a minimum FPS to expand. Starting at 2650fps gets you to the 1800fps floor for a lot of bullets right around 325 yards with 1082ke. Hard to buy a gun knowing it has that kind of a ceiling on it when a 20” barrel has none of those issues. That being said, the gun was used to kill a cow elk at around 310 yards and worked fine.

I’ve got a few calls from game and fish on these hunts. Been a Mixed bag. If you are the first hunt, it can be good success. If you are the fourth group of hunters pounding the postage stamp size special area they are addressing, good luck.

That looks fun

Second for Xavier. Good people

Never too old to learn. Successful antler-less hunt.

Great job. Congrats. Late elk is always a fun time -
Have a leupold and works great. Only complaint is the reticle is not illuminated

Great job and congrats to all!

It’s funny I checked them today and it wouldn’t scroll either way. I’ll bookmark the google site

On phones sometimes you’ll scroll a window within a window if that makes sense. Turning the phone sideways usually will resize it and let you scroll the bigger window

Well done
-
Adventure for sure. Thanks for updating us!

Love it. Good looking cat, nice work

I’ll take 2 XL as well

I was thinking the same thing, great shooting

Here’s mine from that hunt. Been looking to see what else came out and haven’t seen anything yet either.
