I really enjoyed watching the BRO: Land of the Free series! What a difference a good hunting crew makes. Check it out on youtube if you don't know what I'm talking about.
I'm in north Fort Worth and I've backpack archery hunted Colorado DIY OTC in the Weminuche, Eagle's Nest, and meh: with an lackluster outfitter once near Steamboat--with elk encounters each time. I have only hunted with one buddy each trip, but having an expanded crew would seem to add a lot of value in a lot of ways I think.
They say Texas seems to send the most hunters to Colorado for elk, but I haven't run into any Texan elk hunters here or there. I'm curious if anyone in my area is looking for the same sort of thing? It's important to note in my demographics that I'm not a spring chicken by any means--I'm in my young 50's, I have a veteran's disability (back issues) that makes me work a little harder than most, and I will pray to Jesus before I venture out just like the Born and Raised Outdoors crew does (one of the things I like about those guys) so if that bugs you then you ought to know that ahead of time, but I'm seasoned in the back country both during and outside of hunting. I don't yet have any go-to honey holes, and I haven't hunted elk long enough to know what drainages hold all the elk from year to year. I do love the mountains, elk bugles ramp up my adrenalin, and I do know how to call.
My buddy and I are poised for a two-week trip Aug30 - Sep15 -- Colorado location still TBD. If anyone is interested in discussing a crew situation, or even range shooting and talking elk-hunting I'd love to hear from you. Maybe we can connect at Cinnamon Creek Archery Range. I need to get my 60yd pin adjusted anyway.
