Way to do it right! You earned that bull.

 

[Mica Man]

Congrats! The memories of that one will stick with you for a long time!

That is a heck of a first elk hunt. Great determination, those 4wheelers that drive closed roads definitely deflate a guy that walks in. Those backstraps will taste even better now.

Congratulations on your bull. Thanks for sharing your story too. I'll keep it in mind the next time my hunt is ruined by ATVs where they shouldn't be.

.."took off through the timber, rifle in hand, like last of the Mohicans. as I came crashing through a dark creek bottom half a mile later, a bugle eruputed. As I remember it, the hair on my neck stood up, sapplings shook, and clouds parted, having never heard a bull that close "

This! Feel that way every time when they are screaming in my face. Never gets old.

Congrats on an awesome and well played hunt. Best post seen in a long while among many great ones. However I do feel sorry for your family and your employer and customers. You are now certain to be worthless every time you hear the word "elk" and in the 12 months leading up to each annual elk hunt.:hump:
