The Hindquarter Elk Slide

As far back as I can remember, anytime my dad took an elk, he'd call my mom and me, and we’d go and help him pack the elk out. They always let me pack out the head. I thought it was neat to be able to take a big ole elk’s head and antlers out in my pack. I had a .243 Remington, the smallest caliber allowed for big game hunting. I had shot a

The Garden Muley

Every year, my wife, Meghan, and I grow a garden. We still can our vegetables in the fall. This particular year, just as our sweet corn was just about ready to be picked, the deer got into our sweet corn and ate every bit of it. So, I made the decision. Instead of putting sweet corn in the freezer, I was going to put one of those bucks in my freezer.

Hunting American bison in a fair-chase situation always has been on my bucket list. I grew up in Michigan. Of course, we didn’t have any bison there to hunt. When I got the opportunity to move to Wyoming, I began to see all the different types of animals that lived there. Then, I learned that I could apply for a buffalo tag and actually get to hunt one of these critters.

Whose Elk Was It

One of the places I hunt for Roosevelt elk in Oregon only has a 4-day season, and you can take any bull that you see. So, we don’t usually pass up spikes or small bulls. Remember, we’re trying to put meat in the freezers for our families. On the first day, our party had taken one bull - a small spike. On the second day of the hunt, rain moved in, and we went to
