Dillon Hunt November 2018
The weekend before Thanksgiving Montana Wounded Warriors were invited to hunt on land owned by Veronica Bollick, just south of the Schuett Ranch in Dillon, MT. This land is much higher elevation than the other properties we have hunted in the Dillon area. We used a four seat UTV, provided by the Schuett family, to access our hunting destination. We were guided by Blade Schuett, who knows the owner and her property very well, and on the first night we were fortunate enough to find a herd of about 75 elk at the top of the mountain. Todd Bucher shot his first elk in one of the most beautiful settings Montana Wounded Warriors has ever hunted in at about 8000 feet elevation. The view from where we recovered the elk was spectacular. Unfortunately, those were the last elk we were close enough to shoot at during the 3 days of hunting. So we went down to the valley floor and harvested several deer. Todd was able to harvest his first buck and a doe, and Anthony Embesi shot a huge 7 by 7 whitetail. We hope to come back in the future as this was an awesome hunt. Thanks again to Ronnie (Veronica).
