Congratulations Lefty. I do not know Hooker, but I think he needs a bullet.

I just hope its my bullet or arrow. Otherwise, he needs to keep those genetics in the pool. His satellite bulls were 6x6 's
Ill also spend some time where I killed my first bull 35 mile away) and where a bad scope I missed a bull that scored 357 green.
In all likelyhood, I want to set up my popup blind and spend the days in it that I need waiting on a bigger bull I might buy a bigger popup blind, maybe even heat.

Deer, elk, small game, I think I have the waterfowl and will add the ATV, I think trapping maybe but not sure.
I just wanted to get an elk tag ,, where Im hunting has a limited deer population, If my other Idaho tags get filled early I my by a Montan bear tag. I just need to get out there while I still can.
