Dillon Elk Hunt 2019 Part 1

Montana Wounded Warriors made another trip to Dillon to hunt elk on Miss Veronica Bollick’s land. This is the second year that Miss Bollick allowed Blade Schuett to guide Montana Wounded Warriors on her property just south of Dillon. The hunting conditions were very challenging as we were hunting at over 7500 ft elevation with substantial snow cover. Just getting to the property was an adventure. On two different occasions our veterans, Luke Thomasson and David Burnett, got into the elk but were unable to fill a tag. Plan B was deer hunting on the valley floor, where we had much more success, harvesting a total of 5 deer between the two hunters. For the first time, we stayed at the Goose Down Ranch, and we would like to thank Dan Keller for his hospitality and great accommodations, which he graciously donated to Montana Wounded Warriors. A great time was had by all.
