Mountain View Bull
« on: September 16, 2014, 09:03:11 AM »
10 days of hunting, probably somewhere close to 100 miles of hiking, lost count of how many bulls I encountered, lost 15lbs! No tag soup here!

I really didn't mean anything by my comment,I apologize if you took it it wrong,it is a great bull and I'd would have loved to see a animal like that while I was hunting. I'm more interested in how far it ran. Again I didn't mean anything negative.

No worries, It was hard quartering shot. Probably should have waited a bit but what you see is the exit wound. I knew the cow he was following was right behind me and I couldn't tell if she saw me or was getting nervous. I ranged him at 40 and by the time I shot he was more like 25. After the shot he only ran about 40 yards and heard it crash in about 20 seconds.

Nice bull, congrats! 

That looks like some impressive penetration, what bow/arrow/broadhead combo were you shooting if you don't mind sharing?

It looks like you were in the sun for a loooong time. MV has the reputation for a tough hunt, and you proved it. I for one am really happy when these tags get filled. Congratulations, now go rest your feet.

Nice job and way to stick with it. I am new to archery (deer only). I have a great appreciation for hunters that kill game with a bow. Lot's goes in to an elk hunt of that caliber. Well done...
