Ted Newgent 4,896 Posted September 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 We went back out last night got to one spot and another hunter was there. He was cow calling so we left. When we got out of the bush we heard him take a shot, not sure if he plugged one. we moved off to another spot but didnt see or hear anything. back to the lodge for dinner and drinks. its rained heavy all night and still raining, so now waiting for the weather to clear up before heading out again 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ted Newgent 4,896 Posted September 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 Went back out today at 3.30 and trekked around 8kms to a known spot. did some calling and no replies. walked around a clearing to find a gut pile. We did hear two shots yesterday evening but we weren't exactly sure of the location. we trekked a bit more thru the popular trees to find this square block of spruce trees. Find a fair few trees rubbed by the bull elk 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ted Newgent 4,896 Posted September 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 Went out again this morning spooked a spiker bull but didnt get a shot off as the bush was very thick. mate started. Ull calling and i caught the rear end of a cow nipping thru some cover. headed back to the truck and we got 30 yds on a cow and really nice bull moose. just grabbing something to eat and last trek out the elk that are being shot are straggler spiker bulls. no one can locate the bigger bulls with the herd of cows. Thats hunting for you Quote Link to post Share on other sites
