Coming into my p-dog area and see 9 bull elk right off the bat 2 miles back on the 2 track & naturally they didn't wait for me to pull next to them for a chat.
The 2 lead Elk were 6x6, few 5x5 and the rest a mix down to a spike.
1/2 mile past them and I see a nice big ol wiley coyote making like he don't want to be my pal either.
I put the binos on him and he trots through 8 Mule deer giant bucks laying a top a hill crest maybe 300 yards from me. They didn't move a smudge away from me. Coyote still on a trot 1 mile away.
Going to the p-dog fields I move out 4 more Elk bulls and a few more mule deer.
So far its going good just with a camera shots or 2.
Yup also saw all those darn Antelope standing broadside for a nice shot, well until Monday when archery opens here.
Was right at 34* at 6am, dang rain storm from last eve didn't help as the 2 track was slippery only from ice.
Shooting P-dogs got off slow until about 7am when it started to hit 60* and full sun.
Bottom was 2 shots & 5 taken out out of 6 on top. Many doubles.
It was game on till 1pm, pretty straight solid shooting, 226 more rounds into them.
Vids...man is my hair white!
Hopefully you all can hear the thwaap of p-dogs.
