the Pacific Northwest with a bow.\u00a0 Secondly, I was fortunate to have had some incredible mentors over the years and\u00a0I wanted to share my experiences\u00a0in order\u00a0to help\u00a0others\u00a0enjoy success.\u00a0 None of that is changing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c0c0c0\">As you may have noticed throughout many of my posts, <span style=\"color: #3366ff\"><strong>Stan Woody<\/strong> <\/span>is a close friend and long-time hunting partner.\u00a0 If I have anything to say about it, that\u2019s not changing anytime soon either.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c0c0c0\">Before I get into what <em>is<\/em> changing, allow me share a bit more about Stan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c0c0c0\">We met back in college through a common friend who prompted the introduction by saying to me, <em>\u201cTom, as crazy about elk as you are, you two would hit it off \u2013 he\u2019s just like you, maybe worse!\u201d <\/em>\u00a0He was right.\u00a0 Stan and I met and it wasn\u2019t long before we were talking about all-things elk, and making plans to hunt together.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c0c0c0\">A short time later, I joined Stan on a late-season muzzleloader elk hunt in western Washington.\u00a0 It was a tough go as we tried to penetrate the deep snow in my dad\u2019s old Ford pickup.\u00a0 In retrospect, it gave us lots of \u00a0time to talk and for me to prod Stan toward buying his first bow.\u00a0 As a mechanical engineering student Stan quickly figured out his new PSE compound bow and became deadly proficient in short order.\u00a0 Armed with his life-long deep understanding of big game and mastery over his new bow, he\u00a0developed his short game\u00a0quickly and filled his tags on a regular basis.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-3601\"

shared hunts, jobs, challenges, and memories in the field.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\"><span style=\"color: #c0c0c0\">Back in 1993 when I went to work for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.jonescalls.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Wilderness Sound Productions<\/a>, Stan joined my quest to capture footage of the elusive Columbian Whitetail deer, Roosevelt elk, geese, and other wildlife.\u00a0 Everything we did was an adventure, a memory.\u00a0 A couple years later while I was living in Colorado, Stan called to tell me about an Industrial Design job opening at his employer, Pacific Design Engineering (PDE) in Oregon.\u00a0 On his word, I dropped everything and moved back to Oregon where he and I again teamed up to design\u00a0products for PDE clients, one of which was <a href=\"http:\/\/www.intel.com\" target=\"_blank\">Intel Corporation<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"color: #c0c0c0\"><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-3611\"

Cathlamet, Washington, a small town nestled between the Willapa Hills and the Columbia River.\u00a0 His father worked for the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) where they lived on site at a\u00a0steelhead hatchery deep in the game-rich Elochoman Valley.\u00a0 Naturally, he grew up hunting and fishing with his dad as it all started just a short hike out the front door.\u00a0 Hunting wasn\u2019t reserved for a week each year; it was an integral part of his life, and Stan often skipped school hoping to get another crack at that elusive buck or bull.<a rel=\"attachment wp-att-3603\"
