Lots of good takes here. Don't let those who are passive aggressive get under your skin. I've had guys setup within 150-200 yards of me knowing full well I was there despite hiking in several miles. It sucks but is what it is. In my opinion, to put a number on it, as long as someone isn't...

How small are we talking? I routinely park next to others or visa versa and its usually not a problem but I am not hunting less than a mile from the truck.

Smells like a cover up

@ilovesprig couldn't access when he was in Canada. That said, it would be more fun to run with conspiracies.

Do they have a rut?

Game time!

Nothing better than a freezer full of elk and chasing bucks in the rut. That pic of your buck alive on the hoof is the cherry on top. Congrats buddy!

Have 20 bonus points? :joy:

Yeah, were you near Palomar?

Tuning in!

I've got a story for you about my buddies buck. He used the 6.5 with your hammer load.

Smashed em! Strong work!

Well. After several days of really tough hunting dealing with snow and wind it comes down to the last day of the hunt. That morning comes and goes without luck. After lunch we decide to hit it again. I camp out on a small buck and my buddies start coming my way to kill him. Not 1 min from...

Two days of hard hunting and pounding snow but boy we have an update! Stay tuned.

Well with a little karma on our side we hit it Sunday am. The wind has also been unpleasant so we stuck to some pockets that were more protected. Not an hour into the hunt we hit a small pocket and find a solid buck. My dad starts ripping the rifle off his back as fast as he can. The buck takes...

Night before season we saw a 28” nice but a little crabby. 12-16” of snow on the ground. Opening AM Saturday we passed a couple small bucks. Got the truck stuck. After several hours of digging we got it free. Upon doing that we heard of a local that killed a cow elk pretty far back so we...

Loving the weather.

Congrats man! Hopefully this comes across the right way, but the hair issue may be more related to your skill (first time) than the actual method used. You'll keep getting better! I love the gutless method and use a mylar blanket to help keep the meat clean. I always have one for safety reasons...

Not for the tag (easy to draw) but for the people, we are about to take off on a pretty cool hunt. Some neighborhood kids that I grew up with 30 years ago, who now live in Ohio, are meeting up with my dad and I to hunt 3rd season deer in CO. My Dad hasn't hunted with them in 20+ years when they...

Funny you say that. I walked right up on a bobcat. I was 20' from it before I stopped getting closer. Crouched down just looking at me the whole time. Looked like a young one.
