Live from Colorado! - 08/24/14 09:46 PM
I leave in less than 2 weeks for Colorado, either sex Archery Elk hunt.Thought I might try to do the first " Live from" thread of the season. I shot my Mathews Drenalin out to 80 yards today, I have complete confidence in that bow. 65 lbs, Gold Tip Kinetic Carbons 29" long with Magnus Stinger 125gr 4 blades. They weigh 475 grs and their shooting 260 FPS.
I have been working out like a villan. Stairclimber for a solid hour, eliptical for a solid hour, treadmill for an hour. I'm 38 years old and prob in the best cardio shape of my life.
I've never been to Colorado hunting, and really don't know what to expect other than a lot of walking, and seeing a lot of cool sights I've never saw before. We will be hunting extreme NW CO, in an area called the "Mesa". The elk aren't migratory in this area, so that's a plus. 2,000 acres of private ground and 20,000 plus acres of BLM land. I've got an either sex archery tag, a big bull would be awesome, but a cow will suit this ol'boy just fine. I will update this thread with pics when I leave, Robinhedd
