My son got his first bull
« on: November 05, 2014, 05:33:03 PM »
Picked him up,after school and ran him over to the family farm as a herd showed up this morning.  One shot and done.  4x4. There was a bigger bull in the herd but this was the safest shot for him.  Pretty proud.

Bagging an elk after school is pretty sweet.

How cold does it have to be these days before kids wear pants?  Looks like he could have a future as a UPS driver :chuckle:

Nice bull and sounds like a great shot!  Can you give any details about shot distance and weapon used?

Congratulations to the both of you :tup:

He shot it with a 270WSM at about 100yds.  I have had a lot of hard Elk hunts in my life with the average pack out being about 3 miles and the worst being two days.  So to be able to drive out to Grandpas farm after school and shoot a Bull was a very nice change of pace.
