Nice bull! I'm sure the meat is fine. 2 of the last 3 elk my buddies and I have shot were recovered the following morning and both were good. Last year we didn't lose any meat and the year before only a small amount that was on the ground side was lost. Both elk killed early season.

Didn't realize the original post was from November of 2015! Oh well.

I bought a pair of Cabelas Iron Ridge boots a few years back and I must say they have been a very pleasant surprise. They are a bit on the heavy side but are a well made, quality boot that I have put through the wringer. Full leather, gore-tex and thinsulate. Very hard to beat for $119.

As some have said, shoot it a bit first. You might like the current set up. I used a rip cord rest for a while and switched to a biscuit because I like the simplicity, no moving parts. I can't say that I noticed any change in my accuracy. I'm sure some people do, just not me.

Wow DW, that one elk filled a lot of game bags!

If he was hunting with a rifle that means he had only 7 days to hunt correct? He could'nt have tried too hard to find the 3 wounded bulls in that time and still have had the time to shoot a 4th. I have feeling this story is a bit exaggerated. I would think that with 6 people in the group...

I had the archery tag last year and unfortunately was not able to kill a bull. But it was not due to lack of bulls. If I had a rifle or ML it would have been a different story. I hunted for 13 days total and saw elk every day and had a blast. I don't know that drop camp would be that...

Some great bulls! Well I also drew the tag to add to everyone else so there'll be no shortage of us in the woods. I've been up a few times so far and haven't seen much (except deer). Took some time to hang with the family over the last month so now I can dedicate my time to scouting. The area...

Hey nocwalker, congrats on the tags! I tink I read in another post that you are coming from PA is that right? If so what part? I'll be up there this archery season hunting deer and spikes/cows with my buddies and we are all transplants from PA. I was up there today doing a little...

I had the same problem with the Muzzy MX-4. Those things were all over the place. I'm sure my bow could have been tuned better but I found another BH that flew perfect so I switched. I've been thinking about trying the Muzzy 3 blade simply because you get 6 for the same price that most other...

I can tell which one NOT to get: The Glen Del Buck. There is a replaceable vital area that has a METAL edge around it so if you hit just on the edge of the vitals it's goodbye arrow!

Go to Google Earth and search Mirror Lake Utah and it will take you real close. Ostler peak is a little NE from Mirror lake. But as was said, there are goats on lots of the peaks. Murdock Mt (due south of Mirror lake) is right off the hwy at Bald Mt Pass and I've seen lots of goats up there too.

LAST EDITED ON Feb-09-12 AT 01:42PM (MST)[p]Same as last year!! Actually, I have been thinking about trying a QAD Ultra drop away rest if I can find one for cheap. Archery Research AR 31 bow at 65# Whisker B rest Carbon Ex Mutiny 340 arrows NAP Spitfire BH's G5 Optix 5 pin sight

Some of the mechanicals, like NAP Spitfires, don't lock in the open position so they are very easy to remove from targets.
