Had the good fortune of taking this bull 4 minutes into legal shooting light on opening day in SW Montana. Luckily my twin brother was with me, who hasn't had a ton of elk hunting experience. Needless to say, we both got the full backcountry, public land, DIY elk hunting experience. This is my first real bull (spike before this) so I'm super excited for a lot of good meat and a rack to remind me of the adventure.

Extra special to share that with your brother. Do you now become the guide and pack mule for him?
