Colorado’s Mike Miller and the 300-Yard Bull Elk

This hunt took place on the opening day of elk rifle season one year. My hunter and I drove up to a place that I liked to glass from because I could see almost the entire mountain range. I didn’t like to go to this spot before daylight, since I believed the headlights on my truck would spook the elk. Once we had some natural light, I took my spotting scope and binoculars there and

Colorado’s Mike Miller’s Best Opening Day Bull Elk

One time I had trail camera pictures of a herd bull that scored 352 inches. Within 30 minutes of legal shooting time during muzzleloader season that year, that bull was on the ground. I got up in camp at about 5 a.m., and my hunter was so excited he had been up and ready to go since 4 a.m. We checked out all our gear to make sure my hunter had bullets, powder and percussion

I guess the one thing I like the most about hunting

Help Someone Take His or Her First Turkey

Everyone strives to be the best he or she can be as a turkey hunter. We all want to be good woodsmen, callers and sportsmen and outsmart longbearded gobblers. But once you get to the point when you know you can take a gobbler, or you’ve taken quite a few gobblers, what’s next? What’s the highest-of-highs that a turkey hunter can attain, and how do you get there once you’ve accomplished all the above? Taking

Wyoming's Old West Invitational Turkey Shoot

It's 4 a.m. and snowing so hard that I can barely see the road. We have 40 miles of gravel through Wyoming's Black Hills to reach our hunting spot. Thankfully the GPS lady in my phone knows the way, because I am in 4-wheel drive and struggling to see the road. It takes a while longer than usual, but we finally reach the ranch we are assigned to hunt. An hour later the sun is
