Nice! We are headed back today.  Had tons of trail cam bulls on waterholes but foot of snow ruined that plan for central Idah rifle.

Way to stick with it. That's a long time in the woods you deserve it.

DRock: "Okay kids, shot placement in bowhunting is very important.  Elk are very tough and if you don't hit them in the right spot you'll never kill one."

Kids: "But master archer DRock, where is the right spot"

DRock: "See my attached photo with the "boiler room" outlined.  I've killed elk with shots in every area outlined.  Follow my path to success!"

its tuff up there this archery season. my plans changed from being up there all this week to going up next. weathers truing around and I'm crossing my fingers for the woods to come to life with a good high pressure and clear sky's after a very stormy week.

Hilarious! Ironically I have friends that have taken animals all over this "boiler room" diagram.

D Rock, , way to peservere! He may not have come in the way you'd hoped, screaming and all that, but if you hadn't ground it out and been in the field, we'd never get to see your bull.

If you shoot the right broadhead you just have to be minute of elk.

We all have a story like this. Sometimes things don't go as planned. Luckily you got him. Unfortunately most hunters would have given up. Good job :tup:
