Hey guys,
   Keep me posted on this and if anyone from the midwest would want to carpool that would be even better! Would have to be next year or the year after for me! I'll be burning up my vacation in Montana this year!

This sounds like a truly great learning experience. Please count this flatlander in - and I promise to keep larry from NY in-line and out of trouble, LOL

Course, larry (AKA one bow man), you do need a new elk bow    ;)

I don't know what your pulling right now but, the minimum poundage for elk is 50# in the state of Oregon. A tuned setup, sharp broad head and hopefully a willing elk and that should take care of things.   :D

Next year is a long way off, lot of things can happen between now and then but I have been wanting to elk hunting again,and have never been to Oregon. If you'll have another flatlander count me in.  Hey I could even stop in at Wes Wallace's, that would be great as I have 4 of his bows!!

I really wanted to go on the group Co.elk hunt last year, put on by a poster on the other site but life happens. Sounds like they ended up with around 20 guy's and had a Great time.

Larry if you need a ring leader for a camp let me know. I know just about everywhere on the coastal range. I would love to see their eyes when I put them on a big bull and they hear it screaming 20 yards from them. No amount of videos can prepare you for that hair raising experience. Turns a big bull of a man into a shaking little boy. I love it tho. let me know, I would love to help. P.S. watch the Premos elk video where he comes to Oregon and see what you are getting into. It is like no place on earth. Ferns the size of VW Bugs, Trees that seam to go up for ever. I have been as far east as Ill and I know now why people thought the world was flat. It is not flat out here at all. This sounds like lots of fun. I will go just to help guide. Look forward to it.
