Charlotte and I have been blessed to hunt all over the world chasing big game and visiting hunting outfitters at the same time. However, at the end of the day, our passion really ends right where it started. Whitetail deer hunting!

How does one describe the feeling of Colorado Elk Hunting? I’m not sure if I can but I’ll start out by saying I lived a Colorado Rocky Mountain High at 8346ft. Traveling there was the easy part and I enjoyed every minute of it with my friend Phil Patterson. We started out early Wednesday morning with the goal of reaching Cheyenne Wyoming. This would be about 17 hours, and 1157 miles. We made good time and settled in around midnight.

I was a Boy Scout Leader for many years in Midland, and my son Jameson is an Eagle Scout. One of the other leaders, Ed Schultz is a hunter also. He showed me his trophy room one day and I was in awe of the mule deer, pronghorns, bobcat, and the other animals he had, but the one that most impressed me was the Mountain Lion. From that moment 12 years ago, I dreamt of going hunting for these great cats.

“Here comes one! Get ready!” I could hear the excitement in Jeff’s voice as
I raised my shotgun and focused on the rooster pheasant flying towards us
in our blind. It was like Jeff and I were one as we both took proper aim and shot. Only one shot could be heard as we shot in unison. The results were instantly observed as the rooster folded and dropped not ten feet from where we stood.
“Breathing, sight alignment, and trigger squeeze.” Those three areas are taught as the fundamentals of shooting in the US Army. Since medically leaving the Army two months before, I struggle still with finding purpose and happiness in my current situation. Three years ago, I was a Team Leader for one of the greatest Special Operations elements in the greatest country
in the world.
