My Brothers Bull - Elk season 2016

[MikeC]

Alright ninja, time to let the cat out of the bag...
Unit?
C'mon Karl, we're all so curious hahaha

Also, I'm going full elk ninja mode this season, so I won't be saying what tag I drew till after my hunt.  Hope you guys understand

Oh and hell yes I'm shooting Stevens next weekend!  Wouldn't miss it for anything!

I'm not very good with words, but I can say that this has been a truly inspirational story.  It has been a pleasure to follow the story and I'm sure your brother is proud.  Congratulations to you and your crew for an epic hunt.  I don't know if this story can be topped!

Thank you all for the kind words.  I feel so humbled by all of this.  He's a beautiful bull and one who represents so much.  Slept in a bit and had a good breakfast with the guys.  Whit helped me cut meat most of today and I ran home to get more ice and get gear squared away again.  There are more tags in camp and elk on the mountain that need arrows so no time for rest and relaxation.  That stuff is for January

As for a mount, I will just be doing a euro.  I can't fit an elk in my house anyways so it will live at a buddies until we move.  I was gonna cape him but being upside down and against a tree, it was too much effort by myself.  Pics are deceiving, it was steep as hell, so just boning him out solo was enough hastle.  On top of that, a shoulder mount on an elk isn't exactly in my hunting budget.  I could do it, but it would mean possibly sacrificing a deer hunt next year and that isn't an option

When I get home sunday I will sit down at a real computer and fill you all in on how it all went down.  It was one hell of a hunt
