Good job Bryce! You don't just make a fine bow, but you know how to shoot it too! Congratulations on your beautiful elk!                  Dale

Nice work brother! I know you earned it.
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso

Bryce, have you guys seen any of the hoof rot with your elk there in OR? Up here in WA, we have been seeing it for a few yrs.    http://wdfw.wa.gov/conservation/health/hoof_disease/
The pictures the game department shows here are not even close to being bad. Ed

Thanks guys :) I covered some country searching for this herd. When I figured out where they where going I sat there and waited.

Ed, I've been collecting hooves (good dog chews) all season from other hunters, and I haven't seen one that didn't look healthy. I think the Columbia is keeping the disease on that side of the river or something.
Carson would know more about it than me maybe he will chime in.

I'm thinking we are going to loose a lot of our elk before this has run its course, we seem to be getting past a hair loss in our deer that really put the hurt on the population around us, now our elk are getting the snot kicked out of them. Hope you guys never have to see this on your side of the river. I've seen these poor elk on 1 good leg. You really just want to put them down, but if the wrong person was to see this and call you in, you'd be in trouble for poaching.
Congrats on the elk nice shot. Ed
