AZwest16 Report post Posted October 2, 2015 Trying to think of the words to start this thread off! First off I know that most likely I won't accomplish what I did in the past month with bow as I did in the last 30 days! I killed the biggest coues of my life as some of you have already read "it finally happened" thread! Well one of my best friends and I were fortunate to draw archery bull tags in highly coveneted unit with minimal bonus points! I felt karma was on my side after taking my coues buck and hoped that would translate into a stud Bull. Well on the 7th day of the hunt my other best friend Tracy and I were working on getting in front of s group of elk with a bull we nick named the "sticker" bull! Luck was on our side and this bull provided me a 45 yard shot! The Bull only made it 100 yards before he expired! My best bull to date as we taped him at 357 and change! Tracy putting in some work on my Bull Josh grilling up some of the Bulls tenderloins in cal fat we took from the bull as well. We did this 5 hours after harvesting the bull and it taste great! That night I traveled a few hours away to a different unit for the opener of my mom's early rifle bull hunt! She had been putting in for the last 14 years and finally drew her first ever elk tags! She and my stepdad had put in he time scouting the entire month of September to find her a bull she had been waiting for! There hard work paid off and she harvested a great bull with 13 inch kicker of his right G4! We had this bull in range on day 1 but it didn't work out! Day 2 came around and we found ourselves in 250 yards away from "kicker" and my mom let him have with a perfect shot right behind the shoulder! We taped him out at 366 even! A Bull well worth waiting for! Congrats to my mom and stepdad on a great job scouting and taking this terrific bull Right after she tagged out I was back on the road to my unit to help my best friend Josh tag out! Well on Tuesday night day 12 we were able to pull this big frame bull from his cows! Josh absolutely hammered this bull and put him to rest quick! We had no problems following this blood trail! Congrats to Josh and hunting hard and coming away with a dandy bull! 23 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
