Boom Stick:
that is Reedsport....
I am sure you saw it at that Elk preserve right off of highway 138 coming into Reedsport....
Yeah those are protected, that is why you can see some awesome looking Racks.....
Summers are great up this way...winters are a little too wet tho, for my tastes./..
cheers

Old Elk HunterThat is a good place to watch elk... and tourists. One guy kept getting close to an agitated bull and I kept warning him to back off. The bull charged him and pinned him to his car with his rack poking several holes in his new BMW's sheet metal. Funny as hell.

a-dub COearlier this summer i drove through Oregon...next to my home state of Colorado, OR is god's country for sure! Beautiful.
I drove the coast from Portland to Coos Bay, back up to Reedsport and across to Bend, I saw several game preserves. Huge Elk.
Most notable was the one just outside of Tillamook, OR. A nice Elk ranch right next to the Shooting Range!! LOL

A Dub:
Our shooting range here in my area of Southern Oregon is one of the nicest on the west coast...
A couple of summers ago, our Big Bore range was closed because they were having a Silhouette Handgun Club with a Match going on...This is the 500 yd range which goes up a gradual mountain side slope.... Beyond there it is clear to about 850yds out...
The range next to it, is called Slug Alley and is only a 200yd range..However over the end berm you can see the entire end of the 500 yd range....
There is this Elk herd that roams around the Mountain up there that you hardly ever see....
However one Sunday about 20 to 25 Elk from this herd come out of the woods up there and bed down or are grazing at about 750 yds out...
Meanwhile they are still banging away on the Pistol Silhouette Match on the next range....
I walk over to the Head Range Master for that meet and asked him if he was going to call of the match.... His response in a Pissed off voice was " What the hell for?"...
I point down range and tell him to look up at about 700 yds or so....He puts up his binocs to his eyes and then I hear him say " Holy shit! Where did they come from???"
I told him they had wandered out of the woods....
"How long have they been up there" he asked....
"Oh about 20 minutes ago or so" I answered.....
Meanwhile here are all of these guys banging away at the 100 and 200 yd targets....
The range master finally calls cease fire over the P.A. system....Everyone is asking what is going on... until I and the range master point down range at the 20 to 25 head of Elk out there.....
To me it was hilarious.... 30 plus people over there and shooting in that direction and NOT ONE of them notice 25 Elk coming out of the woods and bedding down right down range from them.....
Makes one wonder how many Elk Hunters are in that crowd doesn't it???
I left an hour later and they still had not started their match back up.. at that point they were debating on going up and chasing the Elk out of there....
I thought it was pretty humorous!
cheers
