Sheep and Shepherds, way too many of one and not enough of the other.....if you're reading this, stop spending too much time on the internet and get into the bush!
Forgot about that elk!
I took "them" out as the hunter wanted his first bull and said I can help him out with that.
I pulled him off 2 bulls earlier that day explaining that we can do better.
I remember sitting on the ridge above a well known bedding area.
It was about 1 in the afternoon.
Took me about 15 minutes to pick out the first cow.
After an hr plus of glassing I was up to 13 cows.....no bull.
The "hunter" was snoozing while I was working the glass.
Finally found the bull tucked behind/underneath a large blowdown.
After we got set up I got the video cam out and filmed his shot.
Couple bugles got the bull out of his bed and within a few minutes he finally gave us a clean look to close the deal.
He made a great shot.
Called 358mag and he was in to help extract in a heartbeat.
358 is a surgeon when it comes to deboning for packing.
Completely forgot about this bull.
Great pic and post 358!!!
Not a big elk but he sure was happy.
