        I don’t see any success threads . . . I’m sure I just missed them. How did you guys do so far this season???

          Success for me this year was just being able to get out… 5 days Elk hunting, called in 8 Bulls, stumbled onto one, but only arrow released was on a grouse.

          Made some new friends, and learned a few new tricks for next year…

          I picked a gallon and a half of blue huckleberries, made a doz. jars of jam, and had blueberry pancakes, bacon and eggs for breakfast several times, that does that count ?

            Hay college boy! How’s school going?

            Glad to see you checking in. I figured you’d moved on to the bright lights and didn’t have time for a little huntin’ talk.

            I killed 5 with the bow this year. Nothing to dwell on, just a good time and a freezer full to get us to next year. My kids are eating machines now.

            How’d you do? Make any more cool video’s?

              Hi Chris! Good to see you here. That jam sounds wonderful! Maybe you could be a Food Network star making wild food. Seriously, I hope things are going well for you. We missed you too! 😀

              Oh, and we have two elk in our freezer, but I didn’t shoot ’em, I was here working. 😆

                hey man. Tell us what you’ve been up to.

                I killed a little doe whitetail in November and was able to get it on film. That’s all for me.

                  Just squirrels for me. I’ve been leaving the deer be for now. Squirrels are easier to drag 😀

                  But hey, I hope school is going well.

                    Just another miss on a decent 8 for me this year. I need the 9 months off to practice and recover mentally:wink:

                      School is going well . . . just seems to drag on forever 😆

                      My season was similar to paleoman’s . . . I missed a really nice 7 early in the season, got the embarrassing encounter on film to:) Other than that I’ve just been filming ALOT . . . havent posted anything in a while though, still in the post production state on too many projects

                      I did have a tiny ounce of success . . . a buddy and myself were walking down a logging road during the first week of bowseason . . . I wanna say the 19th of september or so.

                      We jumped up a pair of morning doves, the one was long gone, but the second one landed about 10 yards at a 11 o’clock position to me. I was anticipating squirrels on this particular point so I already had a judo tipped arrow knocked. With a clear shot and a big oak as a backdrop I drew back and whopped the dove off with a perfect head shot 😛

                      Weather it was luck or skill I’m not sure, but it was cool . . .

                          Love the racoon pic. LOL, “whopped” is the only word to describe blunting or judoing a critter!:D

                          So, where did you run across the little bandit?
