Hah ha! Nice call. I was waiting to see how long it took you \:\) I was a member of this board way back when and started visiting again last year when I ran into your elk stories and put 2 and 2 together.

I'm excited about the drop camp. Another freind and his bro-in-law are joining Marco and I to make four- they are serious hunters too.

This freind has been going to Idaho and MT and cleaning up with OTC tags. Hoping for an invite one day- Ill send you some pics of his deer- they are dandies. I still need to stay local this year and next- the wife and 2 young kids (1 and 3) wanted me close to home.

In two years I am planning to go with JJ Slim to Oregon on the branched bull elk hunt - guaranteed tags for non-res. through the outfitter. It's a drop camp too... prob do that every other year, and the high buck drop in Wa the other year.
