    Uhhhhh....a diary is supposed to contain all the juicy details!!!! (Impatiently drumming fingers on my desk at work).

    Pics are nice....but some of us poor buggers stuck at work need a good story to read!!!

    Sorry Willy, playing catch up on chores etc..

    Took 2 buddies to my salt lick (they are both awesone callers, i suck). We went in there, bugled cow called for a few hours but only saw a few cows and calves.. it started pouring rain so we left to do some road hunting, as we were all soaked.. take a road long not travelled by the 3 of us. Tooks us from valley bottom up to ridge top, about 12km..

    So the running joke with these 2 characters is they ride my ass , in humour, cause i always shoot the first buck i see. So we decide to drive this road and the comment was "k, lets go for a drive and let him shoot his spike"..

    After we were up about 10 km a big fresh clearcut comes iinto view.. i see elk.. 2 spikes, watch them for a bit and they head off.. intermittent fog rolling thru so i hike up the road to the landing to peek over where they were headed. I get up there, in the fog, hear cow calls and a bugle.. sneek off the edge of the landing, get set up.. fog rises a few minutes later.. 2 guys and their pickup down below on a different landing.

    Oh well.. drive to the end of the road, have a pee, buddy had a smoke. We decide just to anke back home..

    We don't even get a km back in an old cut block when i see a buck standing on the alders.. we stop i toss the binos up, yep, got antlers.. driver says get out and smash the thing or i will.. i did not have a great look at the antlers cause he was in the shade.. driver had a betterview. So i step out, load the gun, aim, boom.. straight frigging down.. maybe a 65 yard shot..

    Had no idea he was a 5 til i laid hands on him. Driver knew how big he was(better binos)..

    Few pics, drag downhill to the road, as we are gutting it we have a bull elk bugling back and forth with us below the road.. wind was not right to make a play and we could tell he was heading downhill and away from us and there is zero roads down where he is heading, so we backed out.. more likely a spot for an evening hunt
