.....including in the road in front of my car as I was heading to work this morning......was coming around a corner about 6:30 and a 4 point bull was just "moseying" across the road.....was not sure if my little malibu would stop in time...even though I was standing on the brake, screaming for the damned thing to "MOOOOOOVE!!!!"!!! could have really done some damage to my "baby" had it NOT gotten outta the way....just in time!! Missed him by a few inches!!!! :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

Any elk in the scapegoat wilderness? Headed there next week in search of a big one hopefully.... Its northwest of Helena.

If ya get down this way, let me know.....come the first heavy snowfall and the onset of guns blazing in the hills, the elk will be all over us....tearing down all our fences and getting into our hay yards!!

folks who trek the hills around here for sheds do indeed make pretty good money....just gotta make sure you know where to look and have permission from the landowners before ya go "shopping"!!! :wink:
