I feel your pain brother!  I've had plenty of chances and blown every one of them.  Some guys just have the luck, knowledge or skill to bring home the wily wapiti consistently.  Not too many elk in my neck of the woods now though!  Keep at it!

Here is my "little guy" from this past September. Hunted with 7 other TGers and had a wonderful time. This was my 4th elk hunt and first elk.

Anxious for 2011 season.

Thanks Randy, and all others that have posted here. I've learned a lot from this site.

First P&y bull,  1984, Bighorn Custom, called him in with a piece of flex gas pipe, I took off the cook stove every morning

Great animals all.  I hope I'm in good enough shape when I retire to get out for hunt.  Until then threads like this keep me dreaming.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
