Guest Phaseolus (BeanMan) Posted September 6, 2006 Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 Re: Elk Contest Team 1 A 350 public land non draw bull would be awesome but rare. Release the arrow on a legal bull. beanMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rifleman25 Posted September 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2006 Re: Elk Contest Team 1 I know what ya mean guys. I have 2 good bulls, one from Nevada, and one from Wyoming. I have private land in northern colo bordered by public and I am happy with any 5x5 out of there. Heck even a rag horn is coll though when the pressure is on. The lease I have is on the east side of the Routt forest between Steamboat and Walden. That area sees about as much pressure as the gunnison basin and I have learned to appreciate any legal bull in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elkoholic Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Re: Elk Contest Team 1 Well guys, seems like I need to check in here a little more. At any rate I have been out doing a little bow hunting and as of yet have not had a good look at a shooter bull. Yesterday, the 13th, I spent most of the day in prime elk country and never saw or heard a one, but there was plenty of sign. Today a cold front moved in from Canada bringing some much needed rain and cooler temperatures. Unfortunately I awoke to back spasms this morning but with any luck they will subside a little and tomorrow morning will find me high in the mountains again. Maybe the cooler weather will get the rut started. Good hunting to all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rifleman25 Posted September 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Re: Elk Contest Team 1 Let us know how it goes. Hope the back gets better soon and you get back on that mountain in short order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iron buck Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Re: Elk Contest Team 1 Good luck on the hunt! Hope the spasm stop. Hope to see some victory pictures of you with a nice bull! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rifleman25 Posted September 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 Re: Elk Contest Team 1 Elkoholic Whats the word? Did you let the air out of a 375 bull yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elkoholic Posted November 26, 2006 Report Share Posted November 26, 2006 Re: Elk Contest Team 1 Well guys, there will not be any elk tenderloin for me this year. Sorry to say that today (11/26) is the last day and with a snow storm settling in this afternoon I am here at the computer and wishing my luck had been a little better. It has been an enjoyable year in the mountains as I had a small 6 point within 15 yards during bow season, but just couldn't close the deal, and was on the trail of several bulls during the rifle season, only to see flashes of tan. The only shooter bull during rifle season stood broadside on a logging road in the failing light at the end of a long day, and I wonder if he knew legal shooting time was over and he was perfectly safe. And so it is, if the body is able, next fall will find me in pursuit, once again, of the monarch of the mountains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
