Unit 1 jr only elk

Recommended Posts

I took my nephew on his first hunt this past weekend. He drew a unit 1 Jr. only antlerless elk tag. It was a pretty tough hunt. We got to our our trailer just after dark the night before the hunt and the elk were screaming. At times they were so loud that It almost sounded like they were standing on the porch. We got up and he had to walk at least 200 yards before we got set up for a shot. One shot later with the 7mm-08 and it was over. Then my neighbor got his tractor and helped us load the elk up and we took it back to our place for processing. :P My first hunt didn't go quite like that...

That hunt is a tough one, nice job of beating the odds :D

 

I had it a number of years ago... dad made me pass up shots opening day! Ended up drilling a big cow through the heart on the 3rd evening! nicely done!
