    Had an encounter with a giant Wednesday morning. It was too early and I couldn't get my glass on him until it was too late. What a potbellied stud!

    I've repositioned based on what I saw in a last-ditch effort to get him before gun season opens tomorrow morning.

    Hunting public land can be tough.
