Here are a few pics of Jon and Matt's first hunt. Here in NM, you purchase a lottery ticket for an elk hunt. If you win one, they tell you when and where to go. Matt got a tag this year, so Jon and Matt set out last Saturday, and every day there after until Wednesday, to bring home the prize. It was a horrible week for a hunt in my opinion. It was way below zero most mornings and a big snow storm came in that week too. But, in the quest for MEAT, Jon and Matt were whole heartedly invested in finding the herd. Luckily, the area that they were hunting in is near our homes, so they guys didn't have to camp out or anything. They hiked and 4-wheeled and drove. Jon said our Toyota Tundra could have been in a commercial with some of the terrain it went over. After all of their hard work, they didn't land an elk. Evidently there is quite a story that goes with the reasoning why, but Jon hasn't really shared it with me....... Beautiful place to hunt though, huh?
