You could stop there, and it would be an awesome hunt.  Nothing better than what you described already.  Bugling bulls, tag in your pocket, cold beer, wood stove crackling.  Wish every month was September.

100% agree.  That's heaven on earth.

My boy's excitement for my hunt and putting his hands on a bull elk for the first time was priceless.
