    Montana Archery Elk Hunt

    We all three had shot opportunities on legal bulls. One of our hunters couldn't verify the range on a bull so he decided not to shoot. Another hunter had that same bull in range, but was letting the other guy shoot first. By the time he realized that hunter wasn't going to shoot, the bull was...

    The ranch was beautiful. It wasn't a super target rich environment. There were elk, but most days...pretty hard to find. There was a large private chunk near our hunting location that held a TON of elk. We heard that it never gets hunted though. I think the elk know that :)

    Well, our trip to Montana was a blast! Unfortunately, all three of us still have our tags in our pockets. We had some close encounters, just couldn't put all the pieces together. The weather was great! The bulls were fairly active. It seemed the mornings were much better than the evenings. I...

    Could't agree more Dave! I live half way across the country and Rob treated me like I was a regular customer. It's always appreciated when you call a phone number and get a person to answer...and then it's usually Rob himself. Great service!

    Thank you for the update S.Clancy! I did notice the weather next weekend is significantly cooler than it's been lately. That should help a bit. Glad to hear you were on some elk. Good luck to you as well! Can't wait to get out there!

    Rooftop Tents

    They seem like a great concept to stay mobile. They are kind of expensive...I will agree with you on that UtahJimmy.

    Rooftop Tents

    Does anyone have any experience with the tents you can mount to a truck topper or top of a vehicle? I was checking out the Total Archery Challenge truck this year. It seems like a great setup for weekend camping with the family and elk hunting in the fall. Looking for feedback from those that...

    We are actually hunting with Chris at Montana Outfitting Company. Any experience with them or heard of them before? This is my second trip to Montana. First trip was fun, but didn't give ourselves enough time. This time around we are blocking off a longer hunt.

    Tree Saddles

    I am bow hunter from MN. Been reading and seeing a lot of folks using the tree saddles. Anyone have any experience with them? Pros and cons of different manufacturer's? Looking from some feedback from folks that have tried them out. Thanks!

    S&S Archery

    I have to give a big shout out to Rob and the gang at S&S Archery! I ordered the new Spot Hogg triple threat in the Fast Eddie. Was having some issues with setup (arrows wanting to shoot left...by a lot). Rob answered questions, responded to emails and phone calls and eventually, got me all...

    We are heading to Montana from MN next week. Anyone out there with boots on the ground that can give a status update? Bulls bugling or any rutting action yet? Just curious. Thanks all!
