[QUOTE="Frank in the Laurels, post: 713188, member: 8845"] Yoooo, you are correct, the ones that feed in the various towns are tame, they seem to like the freshly cut grass in peoples yards. I saw three bull's in medix run last week feeding like cows and all of them were over 350 inches. HOWEVER, getting back off the roads in the hunting areas year round is a different story. Any little puff of scent and they are gone..I've tried to get photos off the road and out of town and haven't had much luck over the last few years.. in my opinion they are getting a lot more weary of humans, problem is visitors see only the ones in the towns and near visitor areas and they are darn near tame. I'd like to see them transfer a lot of them to the new game lands in southern clearfield co. it's about 15'000 acres and a lot of grasses over reclaimed strip lands.. maybe the townies could be trapped and transferred into this area but of course that would require the pgc to do something other than write fines.. Anyway, I always enjoy watching them and mainly listening to them, to my surprise they are still bugling.. Here's a link to a video I shot last week in a visitor area.. seems like the pgc planted something they like in this field.
