Opeing day! Guess how many boots made it into the truck this morning?

[markathome]

That'd be one. Hopefully that's my Mulligan for the season for dumb ass moves.


:lol:


Got a grouse in my flip flops on the way home though.


Left at 4:00 AM - back at 11:00. Rogue boot still sitting in the drive way.

20 or so years ago I returned to my vehicle after an alpine hunt, threw my gear in, pulled my boots off, put my runners on, hopped in and drove the 6 hours home. Not until I unpacked the vehicle did I realize I had forgotten my one hunt old Irish Setter elk trackers beside the truck where I had parked. I was hoping they were going to be there when I went up the following weekend, but that was rather optimistic. Consider yourself lucky....... and thanks for the laugh. Could just imagine driving by some guy on a forest service road with a shotgun in one hand, and a grouse in the other, wearing flip flops, and saying to myself, "look at this joker wearing thongs". :grin:

Well at least you get a hunting season. No joy down here. Lost the first bow season and now we are cutting into rifle as well.

[landphil]

Well, the good news is...





...you'll never do that again.:-)

Id rather forget the both boots then what i managed to do. Hiking into alpine to set up camp yesterday and i injured my knee while slipping a creek crossing. Very slow and painful hobble back to the truck. Nees to be more careful i guess

Leaving stuff behind is how my wife gets new gear.

Sucks when you forget things at home.

forgot my clip once. Ended up getting my first bull elk after going home to get it.
Forgot my range finder( shooting further than I realized ) once and missed the biggest bull I've had a chance at.

Forgot my bone saw today.......
Lots of private land that you could hunt. I helped a rancher I know eliminate an elk from stealing his crop this morning. up at 4, at his ranch( Fort Steele ) by 6. Dead elk by 6:45. First time I've cut a tag on opening morning.

[boblly1]

years ago i was hunting up Thunder Mountain.On the way down stopped to walk a old cat trail that was always good for grouse blues and willows. I did not to leave my rifle in the truck so i wrapped it in a plastic bag and put it under a log away from the truck.It was a brand new 300 savage lever action.I did not realize until i was home that i left it behind. I drove back over 30 miles to find it right where i had left it no harm no fowl. Id get a limit of grouse as well lol

I have a hunting partner that often hunts in flip flops and socks spring and early hunts lol. If it's not a long hike or just an old grown in road I don't expect to see him wearing anything else

Last week we hiked up the hills on the west side of Dease Lake from Laketon. About 6km in we decided to make camp. Turns out, my partner's kids had packed the tent...it was a groundsheet and a flye.
