Also got it done
« on: October 07, 2014, 08:31:37 PM »
Today at 8:50, I dropped my first Muzzy bull elk (4X4).

Saw it in its bed, 68 yards, one shot.  Just rolled over dead.  Have no clue if the other ones had horns or not (hard to see through the cloud of smoke)

Hunting alone, cell phones are great. Thanks to John, Tim, Dave, and my son Jesse for helping me haul it out.
