by Fred Spiewak, President Several Wisconsin hunting seasons
have opened. On Saturday September 15th, I spent the morning bowhunting with the numerous mosquitoes in the woods. No deer were seen. I gave in to the mosquitoes after only two hours. No doubt the mosquito population is benefiting from all the rain we’ve had this Summer. What we really need is a hard frost and cooler days.
There are new deer transport regulations to be aware of as the state grapples with containing the CWD problem. Be sure to read up on the new regulations before going afield.
As I mentioned last time, I went Elk hunting for the third time. This trip was to Wyoming with Skyline Outfitters where I was guided by owner Shawn Fricke. On September 1st we saw elk in the morning, however, none of trophy quality. Traveling back out for the afternoon hunt I had the opportunity to shoot a coyote. He was close when we came over a rise. Shawn stopped him from running at about 120 yards with a shout. My offhand shot scored and we loaded him up for mounting later. Saturday afternoon we watched about 50 Elk including at least 15 bulls (none big enough) walk by at about 80 yards. Bulls were bugling and sparing with each other as the rut seems to have begun. Thankfully, the wind stayed in our face as we enjoyed the show.
Sunday morning, there were family obligations to attend to when one of Shawn’s sons ended up in the hospital Saturday night. We were able to hunt Saturday evening. We watched the edge of a canyon at maybe 500 yards where elk were feeding in the shade. They made their way through the canyon with the wind in our faces and the sun on our backs. Maybe 60 elk including cows, calves, and immature bulls paraded toward a high meadow to feed. One of the last bulls gave us plenty of time to decide if he was the one. The big 6 X 6

stood at 260 yards broadside as I shot. He went down hard then struggled to get up and a second shot ended my elk hunt.
Tuesday, while we waited for the elk to be processed, Shawn took me to shoot Prairie Dogs. Great fun. Last year, I put in a deposit with Skyline Outfitters for a 2020 Elk hunt and am very much looking forward to the event. While hunting Elk we saw many trophy quality Mule Deer, Pronghorn, and Whitetails. I highly recommend Skyline Outfitters for all four. Great accommodations, food, guiding and game.
Now that my quest for an Elk is over, I am preparing to go to Kodiak Island, Alaska in October with Big Wild Outfitters owned by Clay Roberts and Rick Hyce for Mountain Goat and Sitka Blacktail Deer. The tags arrived in the mail the other day and my rifle has proven itself on elk.
I invite you to attend the SCI Wisconsin Chapter Banquet at Grand Geneva Resort in Lake Geneva Wi. February 22nd and 23rd, 2019 and meet Shawn Fricke, Clay Roberts and Rick Hyce personally as they will return as exhibitors. Talk to them about a hunt and signup for an exciting experience.
We are in full “Banquet” mode with one meeting already done. Please let me know if you would like to help make the banquet a success. We need people to help in various areas. Many hands make light work.
The theme for this year’s Ladies Luncheon is “Paris at the Grand”. The excitement is building for a great event this year as the luncheon grows into a “can’t miss event” for ladies.
This year’s Banquet also features a special drawing for all current members of SCIWI. All current members should participate to win. See details in this newsletter.
The hunts I’ve mentioned remind me of how important SCI is to each and every hunter. SCI’s work to continue our ability to hunt as well as land access is important to us and future generations. This work is ongoing and will never end. Please continue as a member of SCI National and the SCI Wisconsin Chapter and support these efforts with your time and resources.
I look forward to seeing you at the SCI Wisconsin Chapter Christmas Party on Friday, December 7th. This year the party will be at Seven Seas Restaurant on Lake Nagawicka. If you would like to be a part of this event and help in some small way please contact Lynn Spiewak at [email protected]
