[QUOTE="COBrad, post: 2529207, member: 1940"] Reading the new comments the past day or so, it always surprised me a bit when one of my clients killed on the first day and almost invariably left camp that day or the day after. Made me feel they came for the kill, not the experience of the hunt. We were hunting elk in the fabulous Colorado high country! Man don’t leave yet! Sleep in, have breakfast with me and the cook, ride along for a day and we’ll pack meat or scout… I’ll take you fishing in the beaver ponds and high lakes… so much to relax and enjoy and you want to go home!!?? One morning while on a solo hunt I had been awake most of the night, constantly woke up by the bulls bugling in the meadow I was camped in. Well before daylight I was sitting on a log drinking coffee waiting for shooting light. I listened as a bull slowly came through the Aspen forest toward me. I set my coffee on the log, picked up my rifle and walked maybe 50 yards into the woods. The bull walked up maybe 40 yards from me, stopped and bugled and I dropped him in his tracks. After making sure he was dead I went back and finished my still warm coffee. It wasn’t much of a hunt but I sure enjoyed sleeping late, catching fish, napping in the sun, watching the stars late into the night and eating s’mores. With my meat well cooled hanging in the shade I didn’t ride out until three days later. It was an extremely enjoyable hunt! [/QUOTE]
