Go Away Bull
« on: September 15, 2014, 07:02:13 PM »
"Go Away Bull" or, "Up a tree without a bull tag"

I'm 20 feet up a tree an hour before first light.  Flash goes off on the trail cam and for a nano second I see 3 cows below me.  I had heard them coming in.  Too dark to shoot.  I hear them move on.  Then, 30 minutes after shooting light this guy shows up.  Spike or cow only (Nile) and me without a bull tag.  Grrrrrr ... Go Away!!!  C'mon late Archery.  I can't wait to get back out there. and I sure don't want to eat elk tag soup again this year. 

Oh ... BTW ... 2 days later I had a dead-eye drop on another 5x5.  Where's a Spike when you want one???   :bash: :bash: :bash:

I know this pain! Had 20 cows with in 50 yards 3 days in a row....just a couple hundreds yards away from a cow legal unit. Naturally the 5 different legal bulls I could shoot i couldn't get closer than 80-120 yards any of those days.
