mpriest Report post Posted October 4, 2012 Well this elk completes my big game season. I was lucky enough to take this elk last Saturday. After having a bull hunter shoot a nice bull in my go-to spot opening night I moved to my back up spot for the second day. We were all set up and kind of getting discouraged because we were not hearing near the amount of bulls bugling as we did opening day. Then it happened. A heard of Cows got buggered from someone above us and come running full speed right at us. They must have caught my movement of me putting in the ear plugs because this one stopped 11 yards from me and I was able to drop her in her tracks. This kept me at 100% success for elk tags in my life (6) and allowed me to take my third big game animal this year at less than 15 yards (javalina and deer were the others; both archery). The real money shot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
