I don't shoot elk at 600 yards for the same reasons I don't shoot ducks on the water, or turkeys from their roosts. If this confuses you then you're not welcome in my hunting camp.

I am thinking that some of those hunters bypassed the Game and Fish check stations
Thanks for the photos, makes me dream of a better time

At the time those photos were taken, theer were no game and fish check stations and what game and fish laws there were, were vastly different than what we know today.
I absolutely love old hunting photos like those. The ones like my grandad and great uncles were in. No one owned a scope or a stitch of camo-clothing. There were no hunting show's on TV and my grandads cover scent was either whiskey or beer, depending on the time of day.
The Hunt goes on forever, the season never ends.
I didn't learn this by reading about it or seeing it on TV. I learned it by doing it.
