Perseverance Pays Off - “Reaching Your Peak” Episode 9

In this Episode of the "Reaching Your Peak" mini-series, (Episode #9), we have another story/lesson from Corey Jacobsen.
And by popular demand, Randy joins Corey once again, as Corey shares the story of an unforgettable Idaho archery elk hunt from 2007.
The hunt was brutal, and it came down to the last day, when Corey decided to go deep in search of elk. In fact, he ended up 7 miles from the truck before encountering an elk, an encounter that he rushed and messed up. Defeated, he hangs his head and starts the long, painful hike back to the truck…
“Reaching Your Peak” will be published every other week, to fill in the gap between regular ElkTalk Podcast episodes, from now until the first part of October. In this new mini-series, Corey will be sharing stories from his past elk hunts, and then detailing a strategy or tactic that was instrumental in the success of that hunt.

I hunted probably 20 or so days this archery season, saw a few elk, most of which I bumped because they were not vocal. On Tuesday the 26th, I hiked 7 miles, and did not see or hear a thing. I took Wednesday off, and had the "maybe we need to find a quarter or half a beef" conversation with my husband. Set my alarm early for Thursday. My alarm went off, and I stayed in bed, convinced I was "wasting my time." Finally got up, walked the dogs, did some chores, and all the while my mind was screaming at me to get up there, that I only had three days left. So up the mountain I went. Had a bull elk down by 2:30 in the afternoon. Never give up.

Hey, I get it about Donnie's knee. I did the same thing on a whitetail hunt and it's never been the same since!
