    My First Bull Elk

    I really enjoyed the story and it made me laugh at myself. I wasn't smart enough to have somebody help me pack my first elk out last fall. But that wasn't my worst mistake, my worst mistake was shooting an elk without asking my room mate if she would mind having a freezer in our apartment.

    Do any of you use a GPS for rangefinding?

    A GPS can be used as a range finder but there are certain limitations to them. I did an experiment last summer to test the viability of using it for targets, I took my WAAS enabled etrex out and shot 5 different points about 500 yards apart 10 times, each shot on a single point was 15 minutes...
