Hello. I'm new here. There seems to be a wealth of knowledge and experience, plus a lot of people willing to share it with each other. I'm looking forward to being part of the community here. I've been shooting and hunting since I was a high school kid (grad 1967, just in time for the Vietnam war). I've hunted ducks, quail, doves, rabbits, coyotes, deer, and elk. I don't hunt much any more, I'm getting soft hearted in my old age. The only animals that have to worry about me now are chicken killing coyotes and rattlesnakes too close to my house. I still like to go elk hunting with friends and try to call a bull in close for them to shoot with a bow. Here in NM the only elk hunting allowed during the rut is bow hunting. Later when the rut is over the muzzle loader and rifle seasons start, but no more calling in of bulls then. That's when we climb the mountains into the rough stuff and try to sneak up on them or ambush them.
