I have faith in you, let's see those pictures when you return, I'm in the same boat, I am sitting back home in IL enjoying
T-day with my family with the MT elk supertag still in my pocket, between my archery hunt in the elkhorns and my visit to the buffer zone last week I have looked over more mature bulls this fall than I have in 10 previous years of elk hunting, I have passed on some big, big bulls, it's been a super fall so far. I plan on being in Gardiner for a week this Januray, just now trying to figure out when I should plan the trip. I'm not real familiar with that hunt so I'm still trying to figure out the best way to do it. Even if I wind up killing a lessor bull than some of the bulls I passed I also will have no regrets, I certainly have gotten my monies worth on this tag. In between I was able to harvest a great mule deer on the AZ Strip, a 6X6 that scored over 203"s.
Good Luck Life is Good
