Greg,

Nutria are mostly nocturnal, but we shoot a lot of them in the last hour before the sun goes down.

Guys, Hopefully Im not out of line asking this of you. I was thinking one picture per posting would be much easier and enjoyable for those viewing this post. I ask this because I for one cannot even think about viewing this thread on my home computer because of the download time. When I open the thread to view the pics and my poor, slow computer goes to work, I just close the thread. It just takes too long to download 4-8 pics in each post. Also, I think this would make sure that all the pics we post are truly special and not just everything we see outdoors. Its just my thoughts. Nothing written in stone if you still want to show bunches of pics. Maybe Administration will have suggestions. Thanks, Curtis

Bear,

You gotta love a guy who can rate the top 5 naps in his life.  I think you have your priorities just right!  Great pic, too.

Found this 2.5 yr old buck when I was out ground stalking the other day.  

Picked him up and was walking with him in my left hand and my bow in my right...went down a gulley, ground was very wet and I slipped backwards.   :(

Bow and the rack went way up...bow came down in the leaves and the rack in my face.  Punctured my face a couple times right below my cheekbone and scratch me up badly.  Didn't know I was bleeding until I tasted a trace of blood in my mouth.

G'day fellas,

  My first post on this years thread. Just love it! Here is another Camel that was spoted on a scouting trip out west. Must sweet talk the owner a l ittle more to be able to hunt them. Enjoy...

Alan, That must be a non-typical camel.

Looks like he's got a tree growing out of his hump. LOL...

I look forward to seeing more of your pictures. I always enjoy them.

Me and Greta, on the last night of season. Sorry for the scare folks,it was very cold,(10 below wind chill)and I was all iced up.

   

Should've killed tonight! Sat on the edge of a rye field,and had deer around me for an hour.Just a bit out of range.Maybe in warmer weather,but with all the cold stiff muscles????? I've been there and done that.I mostly watched.Saw over 20 deer!

Made the mistake of picking up my bow to early.Never got the chance to hang it up again.Finally had to do something,as my fingers were numb stubs!The deer boogered out!

Great way to end the season!

Tim, Nice picture but too cold for me.

You seemed to be handling it good. Looks like you are even having fun.

Here's four of my students, me with my daughter and Bill Bailey (Santiam) at a shoot today.  Had a blast.

Scott,

Thanks for the kind words.  Messing around with kids when you're a kid at heart hardly qualifies as anything above playing.

However, what you and your fellow soldiers do, day in and day out, is something that I can only stand up and say "Thank You" for.

You see, without all of you, and those that came generations before you, doing what you're doing, I wouldn't even have the chance to do what I'm doing.

A big thank you has to go out to Bill as well.  He took the time to get one of those boys straightened out a little bit shooting and after that the student was outshooting the teacher.

Well Woodchuck and I went out Saturday roaming the woods around Ti Yogi. Looking for a potential rabbit or squirrel... guess with the cold snap they were smarter than we were and stayed inside! We slipped and slided, crunched ice and frozen snow.. navigated ice and flooded timber... but as woodchuck claimed it was "invigorating" just being out and about. it was cold and snowy.. but sure felt good to be out in the woods w/ bow in hand after the deer season... no pressure just having fun. We did manage to "kill" a few field targets while we were at it! We had a blast.
Someday you and I will take the Great Hart by our own skill alone, and with an arrow. And then the Little Gods of the Woods will chuckle and rub their hands and say, "Look, Brothers. An Archer! The Old Times are not altogether gone!"
