Only wolf was from the air. I'm sure there are times when caribou hunting may be easy, but ours was not one of them... we were extremely lucky to get caribou at all. Huge thanks to Golden Eagle.

Yeah and then we waited 3 more days in the field without seeing anything but 2 grizzly bears. Very different and tough hunt for sure. One more of Clay showing off the tops of his bull. One of my favorite shots showing the 206 coming in to take us out.

Funny. I just uploaded some pictures and was going to start a post. It was a great time, lots of memories. I glassed what I assumed was antlers at about 2000 yards. Pic through my 15's Up close more of my bull

I like the short but if you have close set eyes you may need an extra base for the extra inch to allow the binos to adjust all the way in together...

I don't think it is the energy that is the issue. It is the ability to maintain consistent groups st those distances.

Congrats Joel, and crew.. what a special hunt for you guys...glad I could be part of it in a small way.

Sundevil- I believe you have bulls and units and persons mixed up a bit. J Larsen killed a giant bull and his hunting buddy but he doesn't work at archery headquarters but yes goes by the handle sneak freak. Also not 23S I guess SunDevil deleted his post.

Asu should not even been in that situation, but I agree that really was a horrible way to win/lose.

Well...I was probably made a liar...In the last 2 days we probably have gotten 2-3 inches of rain with some real downpours....good chance your tanks are full. Bad news I wouldn't even think of sitting water..

There is water everywhere, even on the north of 260. If the tanks don't have water in them now, they won't in 3 weeks, unless we get lucky. Usually the reasons the tanks don't hold water is 1.lack of maintenance 2. changes in drainage. Good luck it will be a fun hunt. Grass is awesome.

I've shot this BH since it was designed, even used a prototype on a bull elk I killed in 2010. First and foremost I am a fixed head kind of guy, I don't like worrying about pre mature deployment, etc..but I can say that I have had some incredible blood trails with the Ulmer BH and am a huge fan, if I'm going to use a mechanical head I like the ulmer or the T3 by G5. There are two advantages of the Ulmer over all other mechanical heads that I know of, both have been stated above. 1st. Practice mode. I hate shooting a bh and then having to take it off to change blades or change from practice head to hunting head. I like knowing that what I shot in practice is what I will shoot at an animal. 2nd Accuracy. I have never encountered a BH that shoots as well as this head at all distances. period. The only downside I can see is that it is 2 blade over 3, but I've never found that it matters. My .02

No. It is a really good rest for beginners and or under 25 yards but I don't like anything influencing the flight of my arrows. IE hitting fletchings etc... My .02

I second the concept of not getting a custom turret. If you are really slow it takes 1/2-3/4 of a second more to look at your chart and dial the MOA associated with it. If your counting clicks then thats another thing and I would still get a MOA turret over custom yardage turret. my .02 I put my yardage/MOA chart on the flip-up cap of my scope cover. Both front and back so I have quick reference.

Top one I believe is in 190's, maybe pushing 200. Big 3x3 might go 150+ Cool bucks and pictures.

Its very tough on a person to live in the Mtns but we do what we have to do.. Swaro-65mm non HD with my Droid... I'm positive there are only 7 I watched them move for over an hour and have 4 different videos of them circling the tree for the pecking order bedding spots..

How many?

Here they are circled

Since I have no idea when I'll be able to post the video if I don't do it now, here it goes. There are two more bedded directly below the obvious buck in the shade, watch the video and look for movement. http://smg.photobucket.com/user/khdavis/media/VID_20130731_070048_502_zps84822044.mp4.html 7 bucks total. this was taken through my spotter at around a mile or just over. BTW all mule deer

I have one you can borrow, I'm in Pinedale. I think mine is the same as AZ Ranger

I used the small ones for coues and mulies...I don't think you could do it without being in a stud..2 pretty good screws/bolts into a stud should work..

Kicker bull should be over 350...fronts are very good..

I'm planning on using mag primers with my 280ai, we will see.

Too many times I've read of vortex not returning to Zero on turrets. I say go Leo...but I've never owned a vortex..

If you like em kill em...don't let em grow another year cuz you won't get a tag...

not real big score wise, but cool character and if it makes you happy shoot it.
