Coues 'n' Sheep

Which 5BS hunt is it?? Yes very crowded... but very easy hunt.... The elk are very predictable there....get out there and learn that patern... they bed in the canyons or the supper thick flat/basin areas.... feed on the mesas and water in the dark or just at first light/last light... work the edges of the bedding areas opening morning.... should be a done deal by 9 am in 5BS! Very fun hunt there in my opinion. Good luck.

Outstanding! Congrats!

Congrats to all of you, Ernie!!! Outstanding first buck!!! I love it!! It is Awesome that your brothers are coming down to hunt with you and that you out there giving back to the next future hunters!! What great family memories!!! Congrats again, Buddy!!

Congrats on a great bull, Steve. I know you worked your arse off on that hunt.... Good for you man!

Guys... get real! This is like a Dodge vs. Chevy arguement.... ... and it is getting really old and repeditive. I truely don't care how any of you hunt, as long as it is legal, and deemed in Fair Chase by the B&C & P&Y.... Period! You guys hunt your way, those guys hunt there way, I'll hunt my way... and successful or not we all share the common bond that drives us to infuse/fund more conservation and industry than all the Aniti's combined. Reguardless of your favorite method of hunting you are very important part of the hunting community spending dollars, creating jobs, helping wildlife conservation, and hopefully teaching children about the outdoors and fair chase hunting. Please consider joining the "Coalition to Ban ALL Coalitions" as Hank JR song said..... "You do your thing and I'll do my thing, too!" We are hunters and and we should all respect our differences as well as our similarities. I hunt with a lot of different folks and honestly many of them like to hunt different than I do, but we still have Helluva good time hunting together! The real issue is that I personally do not want anyone to lose any opportunity to be successfull in the outdoors. Whether you like shooing across the county to make a kill or like to do it at less than 10 yds..... Whether you are a Tri-athlete or in a wheelchair.... Whether your bow shoots 220fps or 320fps.... Whether you are 10 years old or 30 or 75.... a Real Hunt is in the eye of the beholder.... I am not able to judge the quality of any hunt that is not my own. Go hunting, take a child, teach them you very best values, teach them to respect others values, and be happy with that. Do not impress your way on all...or ask that the Gov. impress your way on all.... we all have the right to make our own choices.... many great men and women have given thier lives so that we may choose.... Your way, my way, that other guy's way.... none of them work for everyone... let it ride. Happy Hunting, My Brothers!

Thanks a bunch... Had a great day and don't remember much after the sun went down... soooo I'm guessin' I had a good time, too! Been a while since I drank that many Blackberry Brandies in one night! Thanks again guys!

I'm that guy with the camera.... Trophy photos last a long time and I do my best to show the best of each trophy. For those of you that are askin'.... this bull would gross about 355" ..... and nets are for fisherman!

Great bucks thatnks for sharing them with us!!!

AMEN!! Thanks all.... kinda feelin' old today....

Congrats on a Great Bull!

Yup.... all those are effective. Best of luck on the upcoming season.

Dang Mike!!! You and the Kids had it going on!!! Tell them I know where their hunting hot spot is now!!! HaHa Jarod's pic is a dead giveaway!!!

You are barking up the wrong tree there... not a Rez bull.... So I guess we are back to guessing what unit....

Hey all.... if you are going to be in or even near 23 for the Youth hunts I would definatly recommend checking out Dale and his shop. He and his wife are working very hard to produce first rate artistry at a Very fair price.... and the deals they are offering the youths as well as the "Big Buck Competion" they are having make it very worth the trip to Young (or the camp) to check them out. Good people and I am very happy with the work I have seen in his studio..... Check 'em out!

A huge congrats to Jay and The Cody's, you dang sure had the time spent in there! If it couldn't be us, I'm glad it was you guys! What a fantastic bull! Congrats!

I don't know what you are talking about....... or should I say don't remember????? I remember and I also have those photos of Manny around 10 and also around 1am if you want to see them. Butters, Thank you, your an honest man. Come on Manny "man up"! what happen to you showing up? We all waited for you. Azsagebrush If your talking about back up in 9 yesterday..... you can thank that little guy Crown Royal for pounding on my head when I woke up. I think that was a well earned celebration! Congrats my Friends!! Congrats to Will as well on an Awesome bull!!

Naw.... I'd not waist the time or money.... It is like scout... why bother... just show up and hunt.... shoot the dang thing uyou see and get home and back to work!

Congrats Jason!!!

Stay the course, my Friend! You are a very tough man... and I know there is much tug-o-war in your life with the physical He!! that you endure. Hang tough.... our prayers will be for you during this tough time and in your special hunt.... I only wish I could be there on opening day to see you hold that big bull! Find the strength to trudge forward... embrace you your family... and challenge your fears. God Bless.

Congrats my Friend! I am so glad that my Pard and I were able to accompany you and Mike on the recovery! It was very special to get to share that time with such a deserving and compassionate hunter! You earned it, CONGRATS Buddy!! Best of luck on the 11th.... I'll be rooting for you!!! If you shoot as well at your bull as you did that buck.... .... it will be a short recovery, again!!! Good luck and Congrats again, Bro!! BTW.... Remember.... that X-bow is not a "Black Mark".... .... It is a Badge of Courage that you earned... in service to us all.... Seeing you with that X-bow makes me well up with pride.... it is the tool that still allows you to do what you so dearly love! Thank You.... and enjoy every moment.... You Earned It!!!!

OUTSTANDING!!! Great pics! What a Picture Perfect buck! Congrats reguardless of score!! ....and congrats on the score, too of course!

Thanks Clay!!!!!! How about someone starts another post to debate cameras, guiding, outfitting, Mossback, Mullins, etc.... Let's talk about THIS BULL!!! He's a BIG one and sincere CONGRATS to the hunter!!!!!!! S. There will be no "Attack of the Clones"..... if there were any such animal. Well Said, Stanley!

It is not a matter of "If"....... it is just a matter of "WHEN".
