My dad and I killed this 7x7 320 class bull during late Muzzy season in the Teanaway unit.  He got drawn for the hunt and then found out he had cancer.  Had to have a major surgery which left him pretty debilitated.  He was granted a disabled hunters permit from the state and I was able to help.  We put in a lot of miles on the road covering a large portion of the unit.  We didn't get out of the truck much as he was pretty weak.  He spent the majority of 3 days sitting next to me dry heaving and struggling to feed himself.  No longer the strong man I remember looking up to all those years which sure puts life into perspective.  Anyways... We were in fairly fresh snow.  Saw a ton of wolf tracks along Stormy Creek in the NF of the Teanaway.  Funny thing was that where ever there were wolf tracks, there were no deer or elk tracks...  Lots of turkey though.  I guess the deer and elk would be safe if only they could fly... 
This was the only elk we saw in 3 days in the unit.  We went back the next morning to retrieve the animal and brought along a range finder because we had different opinions about the distance of the shot.  It ended up being a 180yard through open peep sights.   The first shot hit a little low and back but took out the liver.  He turned and walked maybe 30 yards and bedded down for good.  We were using a Knight Disc Extreme 50 caliber shooting Hornady 250 grain SST with 150 grains of Pyrodex.  It was a blessing to harvest this animal together and a day that I will cherish for the remainder of my life.  I appreciate the time my father spent taking me into the woods hunting all those years and will do everything I can to pass it along to my children.
