Had some roosies join me while I was in the backyard getting some stumping practice with my bow.

Isn't that a great sight?! Very cool. Might have to have some critter control if they get out of hand.

They were spying your shooting efficiency!!Lol Great pic.thanks for sharing.
An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.

We have a couple of elk herds that visit our backyard on a regular basis. The first is a herd composed primarily of 30 to 35 cows and a few spike bulls. The second is a much smaller bachelor group, of which the bulls in the pic above are undoubtedly a part of. Among that bachelor group is a magnificent bull that would easily go P&Y if not B&C (I'll try to get pics the next time he shows up).

Cool picture ... I would like to see a picture of the big fella!
To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

Oh, man.  Maybe someday.  Though, I have been seeing whitetail that give a promise of next year.

That is cool, were the quivering in fear or laughing when they left your yard?  I know most Rosies look at me and laugh as they disappear into the thick brush.

Way to throw them off.  Soon they'll think archery is like golf, totally harmless.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

A while back my daughter sent me some cell phone pictures from the back yard of their new home. These are California Tule Elk from Lake Countys Cache Creek Herd...

I doubt they were laughing, however, there very well could have been a snicker....

Really cool pic.  What a sight...  Thanks for posting...

That is awesome. All I see out my backyard is miles of houses on top of each other. You are a lucky man.
