I was Elk hunting in Craig,CO. late cow season. There had been a massive winter kill from last year so not very many sightings at all. Anyway, We came across 4 Coyote Hunters 3 male and one female I think was the count. All were in camo and no Orange, no snow either. Now we came up on them as they were stalking, we thought they were elk hunters to so we stopped, I in my orange slowly moved up to one of the hunters and was going to explain that we didn't want to jump or spook their hunt. She comes walking up as I start to explain and I get "I don't care, we are Coyote hunters and we don't care about your elk hunt". I turned around and started walking away but was still trying to be polite. Now that I knew what they were up to, we started to move on. I turned and said you know it is late cow season and you might want to wear some orange at least till you get to your stand...NO GO I got more grief. I said don't get your panties in a bunch, we are outa here. I guess I hurt her feelings.
To her ....I'm sorry.Butch up...to her family if her or one in her party was shot by an inexperienced elk hunter due to no orange....sorry...we all know THAT never happens.
Lighten up...this is not Iraq or the wild west...on second thought...nah it aint worth it....I paid good coin to hunt there, she was probably a local and can hit those spots anytime.....as a side note we came up on two yotes later that day...way away from the Coyote hunters.....the gods shined on them to live another day....
