bhuntin Report post Posted November 12, 2013 Finally got around to posting my sons first elk. What a hunt!( Proud Dad ), great memories and friends and a ton of great elk meat. Bray got his elk opening day after sitting for a couple of hours in 26 degee weather. The elk werent moving as usual , so we chased a bugling herd that was holed up in a pocket canyon in 5A. as we were moving in a coyote walked along side of us for a few hundred yards about 50 yards away. we then jumped a couple of cows that moved off into some thick stuff, we skirted around them towards the bugling and as we made our way down into the canyon we jumped a spike and 2 cows. they winded us and all heck broke loose.at least 40 or so ran by us before this cow stopped and offered a shot. Bray dropped her with one shot. elk continued to file by including some whopper bulls and a flock of turkey toms(where were they the weekend before). Im gonna say at least 80 or so elk. My friend Phil and his son were along to help out.was great having a cabin to sleep in and a great place to cut up all the meat. Spent the rest of the weekend squirrel hunting. We cooked up a bunch and the tenderloins from the elk.A feast fit for kings! the first pics were where she dropped, the latter was after a drag down the slope for better positioning. PS, love the lead free bullets,they rock. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scooter Report post Posted November 12, 2013 That looks like fantastic shot placement for a meat hunt!!! Great job guys! Instead of squirrels go back out and bust that coyote... Great to see young men out doing what they're born to do! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
