Late archery elk down
« on: December 02, 2013, 10:02:48 AM »
Got this gal Saturday late afternoon in the Winston. Hadn't seen any fresh sign over two days. 40yd down hill shot in the timber. After the hit the woods erupted with 10 other hidden elk. Double lung shot, she went down with in sight. Epic trip as a I had my ten year old son on his first elk trip with dad and a good buddy who was elk hunting for the first time. They are both hooked. Only my second elk. One photo with my son and two "as she lays".

Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.
