    "Not be back at camp when the dice finally roll your way" awesome!

    I remember reading an article you wrote some years ago about coming from Minnesota to Montana and having to learn to hunt all over again. I'm originally from Michigan and I live in NW Wyoming now. It took me a few years to learn but as you point out in this video, there's nothing like the sweet taste of success... except maybe the sweet taste of wild game on the table that you worked your butt off to bring home. Every delicious bite is a reminder of that hunt. I must say though, you worked harder on this hunt than I had to on mine, but it was genuinely an "on your own" public land hunt and I took a nice 4x4 mulie at 9550ft, skinned him and took the meat off the bones right there on the mountain, then packed him out in one trip a mile and a half and over a thousand feet of elevation... all by myself. Oh, and the whole time I was rubber-necking for grizzlies as I had talked to another hunter who had seen 2 grizzlies in that area. Genuinely an "on your own adventure" and I loved every exhausting minute of it.

    I guess I can’t call you Randy Noburger anymore. Just kidding you my friend, I really enjoy your humor. That Alaskan noose hunt when you went up the river was one of the funniest shows I’ve ever seen. Keep up the good work.

    Great video. I'm from Wyoming and have never had a problem with the fish and game here. They have helped put me on the game and even helped drag a few out. Real good people.

      One of those hunts where I was so tempted to quit, but eventually pushed through and was rewarded.

  • @jamesl5010
    @jamesl5010 5 років тому

    Never ever give up! No matter what the weather is doing. I have had several other hunters quit on me pickup there tents and leave. I have tagged out most every time but the times I didn't I was glad I stayed there and made the attempt.

    • @Fresh_Tracks

      I'm not good at a many things, but refusing to give up is probably my strong point.

    Santa needs to bring you a set of Mattracks for the truck and trailer, just so the ice and those deep drifts don't eat up your days like that!
    The end of this hunt is life's lesson to all of us, and your portrayal of that lesson just plain rocked. Never give up!
    PS I'm a truck driver who crosses Wyoming every week on I-80, and it's not for the faint of heart. Elk Mountain will toss even the heaviest of rigs. It's a crazy place!
    Terrific video!

    Last deer season was a huge lesson: don’t hunt the day before and the day after a storm. Wind is strong and blowing all over the place. During a storm wind is consistent.

    Great video and beautiful location to harvest a bull. 3 words of advise - Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac. Pretty sure that is what the Wyoming DWR truck was sporting, worth their weight in gold in that weather.

      It was one of those years when everything seemed to be conspiring against us. I usually keep it a bit more subdued, but that moment seemed to encapsulate so much work to finally have success. Thanks for watching.

    I was going to give you crap for going hunting in Wyoming without 4 chains then I remembered hunting above Laramie on a beautiful fall morning, which is 50's and 60's, that by the time I got back to the vehicle the ground was covered in 8 inches of wet snow. I had parked in a cut-strip as I began to slide further down into the lopped brush in the cut strip I thought to myself those chains sitting in my shed would really be handy right now.

    Love the videos Randy. I was hoping you might be able to give some direction as far as clothing/layering. I have been hunting here in Colorado a few years now. I am not afraid to get out in the woods or in the cold. I am just looking at how to do it better. I am originally a Florida boy and try my best to keep myself warm. Thanks

    • @Fresh_Tracks
      @Fresh_Tracks  5 років тому

      Layers are critical. What I was wearing here in 2011 is what I still wear today. Base layers or Merino. Then as many layers as needed to stay warm while sitting and glassing. With the same outer layers of a Jetstream Jacket and Timberline Pants.

    Being Patient is the Key to Elk hunting.. Think of it as trying to find a Needle in a Haystack.. you dig and scrap long enough eventually you will find it. : ) P.S. Make sure you are in Excellent Physical Shape . You will be in High Altitude Areas when you hunt these critters.

      +fasx56 - A camera guy was shooting the video. I hunt alone maybe half the time, but always with a camera guy, so maybe that is not "alone."

    Why do you always use the "gutless method"?

    • @Fresh_Tracks
      @Fresh_Tracks  8 років тому +4

      I am always hunting backcountry areas and it is the only way that I can get the elk to the trailhead. Gutting is unnecessary if you are hauling it out in quarters. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching.

    what caliber is the rifle?

    • @Fresh_Tracks
      @Fresh_Tracks  8 років тому +3

      .308 Win.

    • @mariomotta9449
      @mariomotta9449 8 років тому

      Thank you for your reply. I was wondering with your expertise if you could help me choose a rifle I was looking between Remington and a Ruger . I am moving to Washington state and am interested in hunting elk, but I wanted to know which rifle between these two or maybe one that you like the most that won't make the animal suffer and with a good impact.

    • @Fresh_Tracks
      @Fresh_Tracks  8 років тому +1

      The rifle you choose is less important than the caliber/cartridge of the rifle. Of the two you mention, I think they are about the same.
      I shoot Howa rifles, which I think are best value in the rifle world. They are very reasonably priced and extremely accurate. Good luck.

    • @mariomotta9449
      @mariomotta9449 8 років тому +1

      @daltonv5206 7 років тому +1

      Mario Motta not sure if you're still looking for a rifle...but new Remington's are garbage. Old ones are nice. I'd buy a Tikka or a Howa longg before a Remmy. Savage and Ruger also make good budget guns
