Yeah, I'll be down around Edwards Lakes and Grassmere. When I was in Montana last year they were everywhere, so I plan to head kinda as far south as I can.Originally Posted by Rackmastr

Looks like a good set of spurs on that longbeard HighcountryBC!
You guys are killing me. First opener I’ve missed in years...
Good luck in the morning!

Looks EXACTLY like the bird I saw today.
BUT I could not see a beard. Angle was bad and brush was in the way. Bright red head.
It was VERY warm today.
A buddy and his friend connected on 2 toms.
Don't ask where he told me not to say.
I also saw 11 cow/calf elk...3 WT...a grouse...2 squirrels...and a chipmunk !!! Supper opening day. Oh 4 turkeys.
Watch out for TICKS...I had 4 on me !!! Yuck
if people of color do it, it's "affirmative action" "civil rights", etc, etc. If a bunch of white folks do it....its "racist" and "hate speech" quote Willyqbc

Heck of a day. Couple great strutters/scrappers down. Missed hitting record on the camera on the first bird which was a bummer!
First Tom was 9 1/2” beard and 1” spurs.
Second was 9” beard and 3/4” spurs rubbed down hard.
Saving the big one for a very special hunter.

Looks like the same view from your trail cam - those are a couple great longbeards, congrats! I can’t wait to get out there!

Yes, same view as the camera. Both birds were shot a fair distance away in both directions but brought back for pictures. It was a great day out there yesterday but very hot so we skipped the afternoon/evening hunt.
Back at it for a third one now. Good luck everyone!

Trying to add photos from the phone is tough. Bird #3 went down at 6am. Have some great footage to edit up when I get time in a few days. Weather has been awesome and the birds are cooperating!
