Bulls are now talking but still hanging in bachelor herds or solo,the grouse on the other hand are plentiful.Managed a limit of grouse the last three mornings after letting the elk go back to sleep,numbers seem to be really good this year,big coveys.Anyone else hunt birds with their bow?Im headed out chase muleys in the AM maybe I can find a few sharptail for the skillet!

My arrows cost about $8 each. I can't even bring myself to snipe a booner mtn goat, much less a grouse. :D Very fun though, last time I shot grouse I went through a quiver and ended up with 20 ounces of meat.

LAST EDITED ON Sep-12-12 AT 06:34PM (MST)[p]Cant put a price on it!Almost had a shot at some huns today on a water hole,bulls kept buglin and keeping my hopes up long enough they got away clean.Just hit that goat on the head with a rock,its not like they are very bright,I killed mine at 20 yards with a ML,should have done it with an atl-atl,I know he would go way up in the books for the lower 48,books are for nerds.

Guys who ridicule legit scores are always the ones saying their critters would "make the books"..

Books always weed out the fantasy from reality.

Some could care less about getting their name in a book,others dont consider their kill a trophy unless it meets the standards set by someone else.I know what a trophy is and it doesnt have to meet somebody else's standards to qualify.If you need to see your name in print to convince yourself how great a hunter you are then Im glad its there for you.
 
My son's first legal hunting harvest was a hun last week.. he's hooked.

You're right noneyet, the crap a guy will do to get his name in a book with tens of thousands of other guys is just crazy. :D

Nice mtn goat.. what part of Montana? Mine came from the Lee Metcalf Wilderness, which isn't known for big horn, but well known for awesome scenery. It was a great adventure.

Nice pics greenhorn. Nice yeti. You taped him yet?

You ever hear about the goats in the crazies? Do they score well? How many points did you have?
