In the dog house
In the dog house
Well, I've really got myself into trouble now. I filmed these bulls on this first video this past 4th of July weekend down on a general season unit but accidentally taped over my daughters 4-H compition. oops My wife was not happy at all but she said; "at least your going to be hunting one of those big bulls this year" Then I informed her that I will probably be helping my friends that drew the Vernon deer tag instead. If looks could kill. I'm really torn on what to do. I don't have enough time to take off work and I really don't need the meat this year. Plaese, don't ask which unit, this is one honey hole I'm keeping quiet for now. Check out the main beams on the second bull and then the next big 6x6 must go around 320-330?

I filmed this second video two weeks ago.

Re: In the dog house
Sounds like quite the predicament haha I have a friend that drew the Vernon tag as well. You guys hunting archery, muzzy, or rifle?
I babysat my little brothers once... I figured elk cant be that much different can they? Just tell me where to go and ill keep an eye on those bulls while you chase some big bucks
Id say you've definitely got yourself a honey hole! Those are some awesome bulls! Thanks for sharing, it gives me hope that I can kill a decent bull without waiting 15 years for a tag haha.
seriously though... Ill be expecting a PM with the GPS coordinates within the next few days. I wont even charge a babysitting fee.

Re: In the dog house
He'll be rifle hunting. His wife killed a nice 3 point 2 or 3 years ago about 2 miles west of vernon reservoir. I've never been out that way but i'm looking forward to helping him out. I archery hunt so ill be able to help without having to worry about my own hunts. Well have to keep in touch... Were planning on doing a couple scouting trips out there so ill let ya know what we find.

Re: In the dog house
Dang nice Ridge, how many bulls were in the group? Hunt the Elk, I'm film you on camera killing a big bull.
Re: In the dog house
Brett, there was 12 bulls in that group and then the next morning I found another 6 bulls in one group and 8 in another but I didn't have another tape to use in our video camera. I also saw some really nice bucks. My wife could care less about the deer but really really wants my to get another elk in the freezer. Also, I sent you a PM.

Re: In the dog house
Ridge...if my buddy had other help then I'd help him scout and then head off to chase those bulls during the hunt. If he didn't really have any other help then I'd stick with my buddy and hunt the elk next year. But there is a 3rd option.....just tell your buddy that you'll help him with his hunt but if he tags out quick then he helps you go chase those bulls.
Re: In the dog house
