It was brutal! I walked 9 miles the first day according to our GPS. It was way too hot. We saw one small bull and a few cows, but could never get close enough because thy were up so high due to the heat and the terrain was too steep to climb..
I did manage to get a small 8 point and a doe with my bow here in Texas and we still have about 7 weeks of season left. We have not even had our first frost yet. Bucks are not rutting yet either.

Welcome Wayne, how did your knee hold up at 9 miles the first day?

Knee is fine now. It took 6 months from the time of surgery to completely heal, but no problems now.

Good to hear the knee held up. Shame you didn't get an Elk, but going after them with a longbow ain't the easiest proposition. Look on the bright side, just think how much more worn out would you have been after packing out an animal that size.:^)

Any deer with a longbow is a trophy, they have all the advantages.
