Found a solo gobbler calling Sunday March 31st morning that I called in on S.C. Otherwise just pre-rut flocks with minimal activity.

I’ll take packframe

Same boat. Tried going in March 23rd all FR Closed. Seemed main roads were dry but even checked ranger website yesterday still closed. Hope it is open for hunt.

My 13-yo drew a U9 early bull elk muzzleloader tag. Hunt starts right after my 11-yo archery U9 bull elk hunt. September is going to be fun. PS Russia was not engaged to draw these tags. With 12-points myself I’m still more excited to guide these boys. I’ve already been up scouting. Good luck this fall.

You don’t have to spend a lot to enjoy the hunt. I get my game bags AKA pillow cases at Goodwill for $0.50 or less on 1/2 day. Harbor freight has tarps and other items. Really no need for camo on rifle hunt. Just warm clothes good boots and comfortable sleeping setup. Again there you can double two cheaper sleeping bags to get awesome comfort vs. expensive one. I use moving blankets from HF on floor and on top of bag in really cold nights. With four boys I had to Improvise otherwise I would be broke. Check out Craigslist and other classified ads. Hunter/Outdoorsman are gear nuts and always selling of stuff at good prices. Here is a screenshot of my meat knive set. Not one over $25 but do awesome job. Guess you could say I am RUNNING Cheap but having fun. But like other posts I own good glass Swarovski 8.5x42 EL (hand hold better than 10s)and 15X56 w tripod for long range. But my boys have Vortex which are great for price. Good luck this fall and enjoy the campfire.

Location?

I have one you can borrow. It is NOT for use indoors or a tent. It goes on bulk tank. PM me and we will meet up

Congrats. Nice buck
