rkv09 Report post Posted December 2, 2013 Glassed some bulls up opening morning and put a stock on them but they feed over the ridge by the time I got into range. I found some more bulls on another ridge. Worked my way over the them and jump one out of his bed. I ran after him and saw him running up the next ridge over. I pulled up my 7mm and dropped him in his tracks at 3 pm. I started working on him and my hunting party(packers really) showed up around 5pm. We got him quartered up and packed out a some meat that night, got back to camp at 10pm, headed back up to him Saturday morning, boned him and packed him out. It was my first elk hunt and my first bull and I am very happy with him. I want to thank Adam (Big Browns) for meeting up with me and showing me some spots in the unit and I hope to help him with his Dec coues hunt down here. This is the only pic I took because I want to get as much done before it got dark on me. He was a 5x5 but one point is broke off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
