Dale
and Janice Survive Alaska! 09/13/04 |
|
|
|
|
Jim Howe (left) and Donny Price (right)
got us on this Alakan Bull Moose. So much
for all of the long-distance practice we do...as Jim called
this
guy all the way in to 73 yards! |
|
|
After 9 days of hard, wet hunting, Dale and
Janice finally scored their first moose. Jim Howe, our guide,
called this bull in from over 800 yards. Watching him
come in thru thick timber and brush, grunting at every step,
was a heart-thumping, exciting adventure. A great hunt!
Unfortunately, our outfitter,
Kniktuk, dropped us off on a lake with a camp behind every
rock, forgot to re-provision our camp for 8 days, and equipped
us with a
leaky
tent! Jim
and
Donny
were
great,
the hunt
was great..but the outfitter gets a thunbs down.

Janice rolled this mature cow at

What a great hunt! We spent 3 weeks in the

acclimating to
altitude while hiking every day in Rocky Mountain National
Park. We then hunted for 1 week with our friend, Joe Buckley,
at
Colorado
Trophies
. Finally, spending a week with Brian Newell of
Elite
Outfitters
.
Dale scored this excellent Colorado 6x6 on
the second evening, from 22 yards! We didn't believe it until
now, but Archery Does Work! Read about the enitre trip by

Beautiful Bronze
Bull Elk Surprise! 08/15/03 |
|
|
Tom and Lynn Colander of Colorado
Trophies paid us a visit while in town for
a hunting show in Ft. Worth. They absolutely stunned
us with a surprise gift of two beautiful bull elk bronzes
by Lee Lester of Lester's
Studios . We are not at all sure what we did
to deserve such a wonderful gift...maybe it is an award
for "most improved hunters" over the last 5
years! (from "Can't Shoot" to "Can Shoot")
Lee is not only a very talented artist, he
is also an excellent guide, and we have enjoyed his company
around camp for many years! Check
out his art work..it is really something!
Thanks again, Tom and Lynn!
