Great looking cow! Sounds like you learned a little bit too.
Yes I've learned this season that I MUST stay calm when shooting at a animal. I tend to get over excited and make wrong decisions like I did yesterday with the first cow and the bull. But whenever I take a deep breath and think about proper shooting habits things go well. I had the same great success with my mule deer in September, I took my time, thought about what I was doing and made a great ethical shot. It's been the best hunten season this year, I was blessed with my biggest buck and my first elk. All the Glory goes to the Good Lord!

Yeah I've noticed that there's very few late season kills posted on here this year.

Congrats, Martinhunter!  I'm very happy for you!  If only I had a cow tag this year.  Saw so many cows/calves, I could have tagged something.  There's always next year.
