On my way...

Heading to CO tonight. VERY excited for my first archery elk hunt, especially since my buddy has reported at least one 5x5 and two cows in the area we're hunting. Stay tuned, this is going to be FUN!

2010 Season is Almost Here!

What a difference a year makes... last year I was so fed up with rifle hunting that I started down the path of black powder. Just before drop the dime on a whole new setup I "saw the light" and decided that bow hunting would be a better choice. I'm so happy I figured that out.

Now I'm the proud owner of a compound bow, multiple cases, arrows, optics, etc. So much for saving a few bucks. The best part is that I have a home on 2 acres that gives me the freedom to 'shoot' whenever I want. I could never do that with a rifle. Whenever I get a twitch I walk out to the back yard and fire off a dozen or three and satisfy the jones. Going into the 2010 season opener I'm resolute in my determination to shoot a few dozen every day, twice a day if I can jump out of bed fast enough.

I've always been really excited for hunting season. This year, knowing that the likelihood of snow if pretty low in August (I pray that is true), I more excited than ever. As always, even if I don't bag the big one, I'm looking forward to getting out and having some fun with my buddies for a few days.
