November will be great!

November is gonna be Great!

First Week

I'm starting off November at work, but in Frankfurt Germany-actually a suburb of Frankfurt called Mainz. No hunting, but you have to pay for the hunts somehow. 

Second Week

Rocky Mountain Roosters

Charlie and Lily are gonna help me find some chukar. I plan on heading to Rocky Mountain Roosters to get some chukar and get their noses on some birds. Since it will have been a week since they were out there I'll probably pen the birds and do some fieldwork with them rather than a true scratch hunt. Tori was really good at her whoa compared to Charlie. But she busted a couple birds. Sometimes we all get a little excited. Charlie didn't find a single bird. It wasn't his fault. He's a great hunter. It just seemed like there weren't any birds there. In fact, I didn't see many pheasant tracks in the fresh snow that fell the night before. 

Snow

We got some snow this week so hopefully, the dogs will be able to catch a scent. 

Oregon Ducks

I was hoping to get out to Oregon to get on some Oregon ducks, but my trip to Frankfurt put a bind on my time so I'll probably hit Roosters a couple times during the week. I'm sure I'll get out to Oregon in December though and perhaps see a duck or two then. 

Third Week

Disneyland

No, not the Disneyland you're thinking of...but if you think about it, for a hunter...COLORADO IS DISNEYLAND FOR ELK HUNTERS! Yes, I got a leftover elk tag for Rifle 4. Someone asked me how I think I'll do. I said It is called a leftover tag for a reason. But I'll get out into the backwoods and have a lot of fun camping with my rifle, as my brother and I like to say. 

Elk hunt plan

I am building my hunt plan and have a solid idea of where I want to be hunting. I plan on catching some bulls migrating from their summer range to their winter range. I may have a preview of my plan up just before the hunt starts. So make sure to look for that later on in November. 

Thanksgiving Week

I'm hoping to have elk for Thanksgiving. Hope y'all have a big fat happy Thanksgiving! I actually prefer ham to Turkey. But elk is hard to beat. What is your favorite?

Looking forward to December

Maybe a goose hunt with Stillwater Outfitters in Colorado. And as I said before a duck hunt in Oregon. And maybe get the doggies on some Kansas pheasant. Should be fun.
