No teenager here Zim, but I have witnessed you consistently b#tching on here and Bsite for the last 15+ years!

Yes exactly. I posted an actual account of what happened on my hunt to help others one way or another. Giving specific info selectively via PM’s to help others. Anyone with the points can certainly and realistically score one of the 330’s you mention in your post if the work hard.Not gonna kick a dog while he is down. I can empathize with plans going off the rails, especially after waiting so long to hunt. Those seemed like some nice bulls to me. Not many guys have 2, 330 plus bulls hanging on their walls for as much as the chit talking flies. I hope to be chasing bulls into my 70’s but I get it at some point the wheels fall off. That’s why I defend my Septembers so damn hard, I know in actuality I don’t have that many.
Loser. Nuff said.Some people go through life believing they are victims, Zim is one of them.
You do realize BeanMan hunts 61 every year almost and is constantly packing animals out of the nastiest holes....not once have I heard him talk about how his body or other ailments drug him down so hard.Loser. Nuff said.
Hmmmm. More FBI interrogations. Lol. Super easy answer! I was tree stand hunting a poplar 25’ up in a kidney shaped sedimented in cattle tank gone shallow and turned into 12 wallows by the elk. I only hunted that megawallow evenings when the thermals blew downhill every single evening 100% money. My entry route to the tree was downwind of the tank and the direction none of the elk utilized. I never once got winded when I was finally able to hunt it late season. Wish deer hunting was this easy! The elk never looked up once. Had them all over the tank as close as 7 yards often. I am shooting from a fixed position undetected. Bull just stood there 9/16 broadside for at least 3 minutes likely much more. The bulls entered at the same two spots on the tank every time. From the South. So they were always broadside to me.This is an interesting topic. I've spent A LOT of time hunting. I've killed hundreds of whitetails, dozens of turkeys, handfuls of antelope, muleys, and elk. I spend my off-season chasing coyotes and gamebirds. I've ran trail cameras over food plots, mineral licks, scrapes, wallows, and pinch points. I'm not an expert, but I'm very confident that I can tip the odds in my favor. I am curious how you know that bull would have presented an opportunity? Wind, getting blown by an animal you weren't hunting, bumping something on the way in. I'm always curious what footprint I leave on the landscape and how it alters what is happening. 100 percent sure is what makes me recoil a little.

Whitetail are way way more wary and the mature ones always enter an area from down wind. Not the case at all for this tank. All bulls came off the steep slope to the East. So they would have had to circled into open timber to get downwind of me. Not one was willing to do that. It was
What I’m really curious about Zim is this, have you ever hunted any premium units, and have you ever killed any big bulls?When summarizing a hunt I have only one way, and that’s a true account of what happened. Period. I don’t think it benefits anyone to candy coat, nor embellish any events. I’m trying to help guys with a later season tag or someone considering the unit for next year, to help them make a decision. Again, to summarize 2022 I’d warn potential hunters to get their seasonal flu shots NOW, and/or at minimum limit your exposure to humans. This **** is nasty this year. And secondly I’ve hunted a lot of premium units in several states and I feel the 61 archery hunt is under-rated by all accounts. It was an excellent quality hunt in my opinion. At least where I was up high elevation.
I have read a lot of negative reviews of 61, but that is not what I observed in person. Just got to get 2-4 miles back in.
Everything is relative. You’d have to be more specific.What I’m really curious about Zim is this, have you ever hunted any premium units, and have you ever killed any big bulls?
It was sarcasm.Everything is relative. You’d have to be more specific.
Either way, I’ll need to see your FBI badge to answer.It was sarcasm.
I don’t like your tone. ?If coach would have only put me in
From 2019 ?While fiddling with my game cams during deer season, I found a few more photos I had not uploaded from a cam I’d used on my CO hunt. Did not see this guy during daylight, but he was visiting my megawallow. He’s not as big as the largest I saw, but pretty dang good bull! Definite shooter. 61 is a great unit.

No. Three of my trailcams are new, and I did not set them up properly. I was actually adjusting those when I found these photos from the trip. Definitely 2022, probably 9/17.From 2019 ?

You know there’s just something about your “tone” I must say I don’t like. I’m not sure what it is. I can’t put my finger on it. But no question 100% it’s the “tone”.It would seem you are just digging a hole here Zim lol...glad you got a bull and all but this post is not going in your favor.
