New Bravo Company USA on my Springfield Armory saint. So far hand placement is nice, now to shoot it and verify I like where it is at. Few more things for this and it will be good to go. Then I’ll focus on shooting, shot process and being accurate. I’m hoping the additional range time with this and my pistols will also and ultimately help me with my 7prc and making great shots on animals.

Recently bought my first AR, so I spent yesterday doing a morning buck hunt and then went down and shot the ar for the first time. Needless to say I love the gun and blew through 300 rounds like it was nothing over the course of the day. Along with that shot my EDC carry M&P 2.0 and my 10mm G***k 20. It’s been a very long time since did a dedicated range day where I focused on grip/ shot process and accuracy and I for sure need more practice. I shot so much I didn’t even get to shoot my 7prc. I did film a bunch of this on my phones. If you are interested in me making a video of just my thoughts as I shot and how I shot etc comment below. I haven’t decided if I want to make it into a video or not. Also if you would like to see more shooting from me/ or Bradley and I also let us know in the comments. Everyone should shoot and be efficient and effective with their fi****ms and you can’t do that if you don’t practice.

If you’re curious of what these fi****ms are I’ll list it out below.

Not terrible not amazing. Seen some elk 2 miles away yesterday. Today I bailed and went about 20 miles away. Ended up getting on a bull for about 3 hours but he went quiet on me and I couldn’t turn him up. Then got absolutely rained out this evening. Prob the worst rain I’ve been in in years. Tomorrow is a new day. I’m hoping I can turn up another bull and he actually gives me a chance.

Onto new beginnings and time to take my box home. Today was my last work day for NOP, tomorrow I get my box. Was a pleasure to work with all my Nissan of Portland crew. It’s a crazy September already. Middle of elk season switching jobs was not on my bingo card. But I’m excited, I’m nervous and hopefully with new changes brings new luck. Cuz I need it for elk season haha. Been working for the Nissan brand between 3 dealerships overall for I believe 15 almost 16 years. So it’s a big step for me. But like I said I’m excited to see what the future brings.

Another slow quiet weekend. We did have some action yesterday morning which you will see later on. But no bulls down. Such an odd year for us. But a short work week then I’ll be back out with the gang for 10 days. Can’t wait for the rut to kick off.

So far this season has started slow, but I have hopes things will pick up. Bout to head back up the mountains to see what I can dig up. Good luck again to everyone. Sounds like Bradley Joyce will join me a little later this weekend. If the rain holds off enough I think it could be a great weekend.

Tomorrow is opening day here in Oregon. I’m pumped to be back out try my hand at filling my tag, getting a bull in for Bradley Joyce and hearing our first bugle. Coming into the season at 227lbs feels good. Good luck to everyone this weekend, this season and have fun. Most importantly be safe.
