XBowHntr Report post Posted December 14, 2011 This was my sweeties first year hunting, She started it off by smoking a Javelina. Then was fortunate enough to draw a cow tag and a 24a coues tag! Well little did we know her der tag conflicted with my guiding schedule! Being the amazing girl she is she said take ur elk client and if you kill early then we can go on my hunt(im such a lucky S.O.B.)! Luckily my client killed a great bull on Monday morning! Leticia had Wednesday off work so she met me in Globe Tuesday night. Wednesday morning found us on a high saddle tearing the country apart with the glasses. With high winds things were not looking promising! We changed gears and started covering country and glassing the south west slopes that were hidden from the wind. Changing our tactics proved to pay off as deer started coming out of the wood work. By 8:30 we located a nice buck in the back of a large bowl. As we were putting the sneak on the buck and his little buddy they decided to take their mid day nap in a perfect spot for a 425 yard cross canyon shot! I set Leticia up for a prone shot behind the 300 r.u.m. and after about a 15 minute wait the buck stood up and stretched. At the crack of the shot the buck was right back down in his bed for his final nap! Just a few days later she crushed her first elk at 525 yards! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

az_shooter Report post Posted December 15, 2011 awesome job! 425 is a heck of a shot for most any hunter but those 300 ultra mags sure do make it easier haha i shot my first coues this year at 380 with a 300 sendero ultra and it was cake.
