Nice John, have fun out there! Stand hunting is fun. Hopefully the leaves have dropped.

The lion is there because there are deer there.

Yep, they are almost easier to get that way than from the abdominal cavity.

Congrats! You can (and should) skin the deer while doing gutless. Skin one side, take all the meat from that side, flip it over and repeat.

Got as close as you can get and not finish this morning. Was helping a friend. Buck and his does simply disappeared. AZ next week and we’ll see if we can’t dig up a good D16 buck when we get back.

Nice Darryl! AZ elk taste good

Nice, congratulations

Awesome! And there’s no shame in going guided…. I usually don’t do it, but it’s been a great experience the two times I have used a guide. @NBK is absolutely right, you will learn a ton and for the most part they are super fun people to hunt with because they are so passionate about what they do...

Congrats

Right in the kisser huh? Kinda like a helmet catch. In the end the job is done….

I’m still so fired up for you guys! Amazing! The oak brush provides….

Ahhhhhahahahaha he’s going to make you all wait…. YEEEEESSSSSSSS DREW AND ISAAC! That is what I am talking about!!!! You guys deserve that deer. Couldn’t have happened to better people. Outstanding.

I was surprised that his teeth were in pretty good shape. That does vary with diet though and regionally as well. I may send a couple teeth to Matson’s lab for aging just cuz I am curious as well. If anyone wants their deer (or any other animal) aged let me know and we can save some money. You...

Honestly I think that’s just where they are living. I have heard that from other people and seen photos of bucks at the tippy tops of ridges. It’s hard to believe when you are seeing all of this amazing country below you that looks like it should be just full of deer. I can assure you it is not...

It’s been a few years since I did a write-up like that but I do enjoy it when I can make the time to do it.

I assure you whiskey was sipped every night

I decided to head north and hunt the Sierra range this year. I have spent a ton of time all over the Eastern Sierra for the past 30+ years but for whatever reason haven’t done a ton of hunting there. I wanted to backpack hunt but didn’t want to commit to one spot only. So I planned a week long...

The variety of opportunities there is amazing… it’d be interesting to see how many species you could feasibly take in a day.
