My New Mexico elk hunt (previously known as big bull down)

No they are not the same.  McKenzie Tan is a Brush on tan.  Lutan F is similar to Bruce Rittels EZ-100.  They are both an Immersion Tan.

Why can't i see the pictures boneaddict posts. They all show up as white boxes with a red x in the middle on ever post i have looked at by him. GRRRR

[jackelope]

try these...or let me know and i'll e-mail them if you want.
bone's out chasing bullwinkle for a few days.

Awesom bull I sure hope to harvest one like that some day.  congrats

[boneaddict]

Thanks Jack.....I'm not sure Lets hunt.  Only thing I can think of is that your server or firewall blocks photobucket.  I have ran into that with my firewall on some pics folks put on here.

The other Tan system I used was Larry Bowmans.  It worked pretty well.  Not sure why I changed actually.  It pickled for 24 hours, not three days.  I think it retained a smell though. hmmmmmmm

he pm'ed me and let me know he could see them as attachments. the same thing happened when i posted nwhunter's bull pic's. some people couldn't see them, so i posted them as attachments and then they could be seen by everyone.
i have no clue why?
i think it's a server thing, but don't know.

Thats a Dandy! congrats, beautiful trophy, great kill and memories that will last a lifetime! Thanks for the story.

Beautiful bull, and thanks for taking the time to tell the sotry, I throughly enjoyed it.  How did the calls work, sounds like they are well made and make a sweet sound, is that the case?

[boneaddict]

Thanks Machias.  The calls worked great.  They are a little loud and I had to work on toning them down, but they worked great.  No others in the woods like them, which is the reason I took them.  I left one on the mountain, and Rick was kind enough to make me another.  I called in quite a few bulls this fall with them, including a monster over in the Selkirks.   I wish I would have taken them with me on my deer hunt as I ran into three cats up there and I would have loved to put the hurt on them by using these calls for what they were designed for. I heard Jackelope nailed a coyote with one on the opener.  Yes, these calls work great and are very well built.  Even if you don't ever use them they are a cool addition to a display.  Those cats were close as it was snowing and the tracks were fresh.  I know you are against shooting those females, but I would have loved to have shoved one of those sharp sticks down her throat.

that i did...lunch break on day 2, about 20 minutes of calling and across the field he came. mr triple shock gave him a rude awakening.

Very nice bull!  Great story.  Were did you get your wall tent?  I'm just getting back into the hunting scene after my father past away a number of years ago  and am getting stocked up on my gear and reloading equipment.  I take my boys out once a year for late deer season but thought it was time to honor what my ole man taught me and get back to the hills more often.  Thanks

[boneaddict]

I scored it this summer from a friend.  He just wasn't using it and the girlie friend didn't like the smell of canvas.  I got one heck of a deal and am enjoying it immensly.  I believe he purchased it at Sportsmans Wharehouse.  Its a Montana Canvas.

great bull! and great story, Congratulations

Its just about time for an official measurement.  Oh Lance, I have a moose, elk  and a deer for you to measure if you are monitoring this.

[nwhunter]

Bone , Are you going to get your bull measured before the puyallup show. I would like to get my official score sooner than that but I have to get the horns to the taxidermist this friday so probably won't get a chance to. I will be coming over to Seattle with the horns  Friday any ideas for a scoring get togethor? Let me know Scott
