Nice job and cool video

WT- Saw 4 bucks on Tues. morning no rutting activity. 3 bucks on Wed. morning no rutting... stalk blown CARP-Watched 18 does this morning no bucks. Badger took a broadhead but made it inside his hole. I wasn't stupid enough to reach down in there.

Jason-great job and some nice pictures.. That one Ram is a stud...

Good going, I'm sure I heard your shot opening morning. Along with about 200 others. I like the looks of that buck very good character. Welcome to the site.

If a lousy glasser like me can glass up two lions in a year and get two shots at one,(don't ask) then there are too many lions. In upper reaches of Sierrita Mtns 3 lions were spotted by 3 different hunters within 3 miles of each other on the same day that is quite a few. I actually enjoy seeing them sleeping under a tree, quite different from the few I've seen in a tree with hounds at the bottom. I enjoy seeing that too

Nice bulls, great job on some great success.

Nice job tell Serna congrats...

Great job-very nice bucks. Nice memory

Perfect Hunt in my book. I love the feeling of finding a buck during scouting and shooting him during the hunt. Congrats on a great hunt and alot of time spent. Nice job. Houston

Nice buck, tell the guy who shot it, congrats it is an awesome buck. Is that buck from the area you grew up in?

Nice job those kind of bulls were hard to come by this year, I would like to see pics of those bulls. Not many bulls can be judged an easy 400 inches and still be to far away to know if he was broken. I hope he is as big as you think he is.

Pretty funny- I lost a scope cover two weeks ago and had no idea when it came off of my rifle. Today I found it right in the middle of a two track. To bad I couldn't find the big buck I found two weeks ago, maybe in a few days.

Nice job again RR- Jason good luck on your hunt next year, That hunt is the reason I want to be a dentist

If I'm hunting with other people, I have no problems having a huge meal, fire anything else I need for enjoyment. (especially in the winter when it gets dark at 6:30pm and doesnt' get light until 7am) When I'm by myself I usually just crawl into bed. Be a smart hunter and play the wind is where it is at. I personally think the only good that comes from taking so much care of clothes, what you eat etc... as far as scent is concerned is to give you confidence. Confidence is what is important. IMO Besides just hunt the burn areas and the smoke on you will fit in just like normal.

Awesome story and pictures. I sure can't wait until I get a chance to make it up there. Someday....Congrats on the nice bucks.

My little bro shot a small buck yesterday with my trusty .06 at 327yards. I think it is important to be able to shoot 300+ yards. That being said. I'm an archery hunter at heart, 20 yards is good. :0

I'll be down there, hopefully I'll miss it again this year, packing out my 90+ incher at midnight. :)

Last years buck at 360 yards.

I agree with what has been said. I myself prefer to hunt alone. Besides all of the other good things that were said, I rely alot on the reaction of other deer. Last year the exact same thing happend to me, the two other bucks he was with stopped about 60 yards away and watched the spot of their fallen companian before moving off. I took this as a great sign and found the buck piled up right where he was standing.

I've had nothing but good luck with the sweetwater.

I bet you can get one under $300 at any dealer

I've had no problems with the ripcord but I'm not sold on the ease of adjusting. I'm leaning toward the Vital Gear Kaz away or something like that for my next purchase. Full containment and looks alot easier to fine-tune adjust and probably a little quieter. all in all I like the ripcord and being able to lock it into place and have full containment. It is a little noisy though, make sure you put moleskin etc... on before you tune. Good luck

I have it also... and so far I have no need for another pack.. Feels real good even with a good amount of weight. I don't think you could go wrong with it at all. Houston

Nice job- and great bull. I shot my elk the 2nd day of archery season and he was already busted up a little. Lots of bulls this year were busted early in the season. To bad because this year produced some pretty good bulls.

On Friday I went to my unit and proceded to look for the bull that I have on video. He has lots of mass and is a good 7x7. He wouldn't score more than 370 I think but he was a good bull. I found him but with all the wind and cows did not get a shot. I passed on 3 other bulls that morning. Here is short video of that bull taken before the hunt. 7x7bull I then proceded to miss a huge bull on Fri evening. I stalked to within 30 yards could only see his back and tines and then missed him at 68 yards. Here is VERY SHORT (watch carefully) video of him before I stalked him and shot at him. (very few big bulls were answering calls) I passed on 4 or 5 bulls that evening trying to get in for a shot before dark. LuckyBigBull Sat morning I passed on a few small bulls and then at 4:45 this bull came in. Partially to our calls and because we had positioned ourselves between him and his water hole. Here is video of him.. I'm at the lower left side of the screen and my buddy was videoing. KillShot Here are some still pics.
