It’s almost here!!

I shared this poem I wrote about opening day a few years ago. It says just a little about how I feel about opening day and elk season:). Put it will some pics and posted it. Only 2 weeks now!!!

The message says the same thing my pastor would like to convey to me, when I talk about leaving for hunt. "An error occurred. Please try again later!"
My computer says "Not secure. Your connection to this site is not secure." Maybe that is why I often get the error message when links are posted.

I was hoping this one wouldn't error. For anyone that wants to see it and gets the error you can go to YouTube and search "herdbull365" to go to my channel. Sorry about that

I think it is my swimwear, er I mean antivirus software. It tries hared to keep out all undesirable nonsense, but sometimes gets a little too ambitious. Just don't try electronically to find my tree stand locations or it will sabotage your computer or your spy phone.

I have watched several of your videos now. I have not seen the shot on the bull yet, but will get to it soon enough. I never came across a poem either.
I find the bicycle trailers to be interesting. The one with the yellow box/black lid is exactly what I am using this year. I too have a converted kid hauler that my son got from Craig's list for real cheap. I removed the top and made it into a pickup type of trailer with the plastic box. It looks like yours was working. Did you have any problems with it?

Hmmm...now you have me worried Swede. I don't have very many videos. If you are watching a guy and his wife with the trailers on their bikes that's a different channel then mine. That channel is Northwild, I'm subscribed to them and they do a good job. At least that who I'm thinking you are watching. My channel is HerdBull365. If you just type in the search bar on YouTube my channel name or "opening day, archery elk hunting poem" you will find mine

Sadly this is a planned "skip" year for us so we will concentrate on home-grown whitetails.

I will try again tomorrow. I hit the arrow on your video connection and it sent me to Northwild. I typed in Herdbull365 first. Maybe I needed to capitalize the B to make the connection.

My trip was cut short by a whole week last year, my partner last year just broke down physically and mentally, we had to break camp at night and get him home........unfortunately the meadow id been hunting around for 3 days a good bull walked right across the edge of it while I was glassing from the camp side mtn the same evening thinking I would be over there in the morning and stick my first bull in years but just didn’t work out That way.

I’ve been mad and chomping at the bits to get back out there not just to kill a elk but just to be in the mountains again.....to be in gods country again, I literally just love the adventure from the time I pull out of the driveway until I pull back into it...

Unfortunately just because someone is a friend doesn’t necessarily make them a good partner. It’s important too make sure prospective partners are of the same mindset and physical abilities. Sorry for your situation better luck this year.

Somethings going on with our internet at home. I think the school kids are using it up.
And as far s Swede, I made sure he cant hunt Idaho/ Montana this year.
