The push west
« on: September 24, 2015, 12:42:00 PM »
Well I woke up this morning unemployed.
 Yesterday was my last day at work and today my wife and I leave new york and began the push west to idaho.
 I'll be stopping in Minnesota for a week of whitetails with the bear grizzly recurve. My brother in law has trail cam pics of a 3 legged buck with a gnarly rack.
 Then it's on to Denver to see friends and visit RMSG, 1st time . maybe I'll post a review.
 From Denver its on to Coeur d'Alene idaho were I'll check out the north idaho traditional scene and report back.
 Wish us luck. I'll post up some pics of the Minnesota monster if I get one.
 To the friends I made in NY , I'll see ya  down the road , good hunting to ya.

Generally speaking of course, where abouts are you going to be hunting in MN?  Maybe I'll see you out there.

Safe travels........is this going to be a scouting trip for a future permanent move???

You will love CDA. I lived up on Green Bluff just north of Spokane for a couple years and miss it greatly! Black Sheep is a sporting goods store that has a fair amount of traditional archery items. Look up Chris Cox of Habu. Also Spokane Valley Archey has a nice 3-d course that costs $10 to shoot all day and is rarely crowded.

A buddy of mine just moved to CDA, He is having the time of his life and sending me elk hunting photos daily.

Have a safe trip, I dont blame you to get out of NY. I hope to be on your trail and stop short in WI in the not to distant future.
Relax,

You'll live longer!

Good luck to you Kevin!  I'll be very interested in your report about CDA and northern Idaho! I hope to move back west soon myself.

No Ron this is a permanent move, sight unseen leap of faith. Just can't take east coast politics anymore

 Stopping outside of toledo to eat, nothing traditional to report here .
