Really nice animal BoneAddict, walk us through the hunt as if you were reading the story and living in the moment. Like the morning cup of coffee, the weather, what the forrest smelled like and the friends you were with.

Well guys, I left Doug up in the mountains yesterday after spending 3 days with him... I was trying to get him on a bull, funny thing was, he just kept getting ME on bulls! I had one yesterday at about 8 or 9 feet... head on, through a bush... Never got a shot opp!! Fun though.

If I hear from Doug I'll give an update.

Well, I guess that explains why I never heard back from him about fishing...  Hope you get a big one.

Nice Bull.  What unit were you hunting?  Were you bugling or cow calling?

Talked to Bone today guys. He passed on a couple raghorns, saw a 280 a 300 and a 350 bull but couldn't close the distance....hopefully he'll get her done soon!
