    One of these days I hope to make a archery trip but for now I'm just wanting to rifle hunting. I imagine the archery season is a bit different what with the bulls bugling and not having been pressured as much as later in the season. Not as cold either il bet

    Not near as cold and it's hit or miss they usually start bugleing about the third week in sept. Coolest thing is sleeping under a tarp on top of a mountain listening to them bugle all night long. You should def try a archery hunt one year.

    I didn't see a thing last night. I'm going to a winery this evening for a bday party (not my idea) so I'm not hunting again until Sat. Good luck out there!

    Just a guess, but I'd say its gonna take a minimum 1,000 inches/pts to win this year. It's only Nov 2 and many teams are over 500. It's about to get crazy :D

    Awesome job atlas! Great story, I can't imagine how it felt to take a buck of that caliber on your own ground. Congrats buddy
