I won the lottery!

Actually it was the draw for a controlled hunt in central Oregon. I put in for hunts where there wasn't too much competition - you have five choices. I got my first pick, a cow hunt over Thanksgiving week in the Murderer's Creek unit. It includes the Strawberry Mountains, so looks like I will be using the Krag again. Late November there is some chance of snow. The unit is south of US 26 between Dayville and Prairie City. I think I'll get out there and scout this summer ... take a fishing pole with me.

I can almost taste that fresh liver ....

I'll pass on the liver, but if you grill up some tenderloins,,,,,,,,

Thanks, guys. I'll probably go out there and scout before the early rifle season. There is a wilderness area in the middle of the unit and I'm thinking that may be where the animals will go once the gunfire starts. South facing slopes around snowline might be a good place to start. It's an 8 day season.

Remember the fun doesn't start until after you pull the trigger. Especially in the roadless areas.
