We just bought a new 5th wheel and are selling our 3665RE Montana. It's been good to us the last 7 seasons (8 deer) and it's decorated with many of the racks (see photos). It's 10 years old but highly upgraded including: Upgrades include: (2017) 2x240W solar panels/2xBlue Sky MTTP...

2nd weekend - 3 nights nothing, then 3x3 at 15yds but he wouldn't come out from behind a bush...no shot. 3rd weekend. In my bush blind at 4PM on Fri. at 4:05 (clock isn't on DST) a nice forkie RUNS into far end of meadow to 60yds and stops. He ran by my camera see photo below. Thought it...

Hunted D16 with my AO tag and almost finished it AM of day 2. Little forkie walked by one of my cameras (see photo 1) and into the clearing that my brush blind overlooks at 7AM. He walked behind a bush at 50yds and I drew when his nose came out but he busted me, so we had a staring match at...

Just got my 7th Skull cap mounted in my hunting lodge on wheels (Montana 5th wheel). All D16 bucks. Just started this 5 years ago so a couple didn't make "the walls". Casing has the year etched onto it...Not sure what I'll do with an ELK rack!! Will probably have to convince the wife that...

Priceless - Pismo clams on the half shell and D16 backstraps, watching the sun set over the Pacific...out of the picture window in our 5th wheel! Silver Strand Camping at it's best!

1PM low tide and took 10 in about 15 min! Great conditions. Surf and Turf tomorrow, after they purge themselves...Silver Strand Clam Chowder and D16 backstrap!

It's the best I saw in three months and he let me get to 40 yards! Everything else wouldn't let me get closer than 100yds...even with 20+ day/nights trying. We'll be sitting down to D16 tenderloin fondue this evening. The A22 tag soup will be an appetizer. Should have Pismo clams for New...

Man are they powerful looking animals!! Only saw one this year so far. Thank goodness it was daylight and he was 150yds away. Last year two of them screamed at me in the dark and all I could see was one pair of glowing eyes in my flashlight. Hair on the back of my neck didn't go down for 30...

Just checked camera pics on the 19th when I shot my little forkie. First pic is me coming down from the rocks the does had me pinned behind for four hours 10-2PM (9-1PM camera time), just after I shot the forkie. 2nd pic is a beautiful 3x3 that must have walked by while I was prone behind the...

Not on par with the last bucks but it's meat on the table which is always better than tag soup! 3 - 4 day excursions (11 nights in a tent, 8 gallons of water packed in and a 3 mile pack out) Second buck (on public) I saw in 12 days. First was a nice 3x3 at 190yds but his was only in my...

Finally got out for 4 nights. Lots of fresh deer tracks so was expecting good action but nothing but predators Night 1 - Coyotes yipping all night. Day 2 - Roadrunner walked to within 20 yds Day 3 - Bobcat sat on a rock 35yds away for a 1/2 hour at sunrise. Then around 8AM a red-tail hawk...

Last night I saw two bucks in my spotting scope about 900yds away. One was a normal looking forkie. The other was a totally black 3x3 bruiser, trying to pick a fight. Anyone ever heard of a totally black muley? Do they roll in mud like elk? Wish I had a way to take pics through my scope...

Hoping to make it 8 with my A22 tag. 260yds. 7mm Remmington mag. 8AM, dogging two does. 3 mile drag out. Hanging at butcher at 4pm.

Hiked in 4 gal of water, tent and ground pad. Checked on them and my game cameras last weekend. Mice had nibbled holes in the bottom of all the water bottles and the ground pad (inflatable). Tent was fine. Oh well, guess I'm packing in more water opening evening and a couple mouse traps!

Saw one doe on the hike out. Think the Mt Lions are taking over. Found this 3x4. Must have been killed by a lion while in velvet a few months ago.

2nd Elk hunt, another learning experience. Went solo for 15 days up around 9,000ft in Idaho, south of Driggs for archery, 1-15 Sep. Any elk tag. Day 2 got pics of this monster at a wallow I was targeting. Sat close over wallow for 4 days and only saw moose. Day 3, tent was attacked by...

Early 2017 SOCAL trout. Trolling with a Thomas Buoyant. Fed 8 for dinner and brought the other half to work the next day! .

15 day solo archery elk/deer hunt at 8,000ft. Gonna be sucking wind, coming from San Diego, especially if I down one! Almost sealed the deal last year with an 6x6 at 30 yds. Maybe this year is it...new Bowtech Reign 7 need a red arrow!

After getting deer the last 4 years in D16, decided to give archery a try for 2nd tag. 6th day out filled the rifle tag with a nice 3x3. Next 7 nights bow hunting from a tent, during that really windy week, I took two swings. 1st was at a nice 3x3 from my treestand. Shooting G5 Montec fixed...

Dropped him where he stood. 5 nights in a tent. 7:15 AM, he walked across a 15 foot shooting lane and that's all she wrote. 3 bucks in two years within 20 yds of each other. Now I have to fill myAO tag. Blinds all set up so know where I'll be for the next few weeks!
