Thanks for the write up DL! Total bummer about not finding your bull! It definitely happens and like many have said, it’s about what you take away from these instances.
I’d be heart broken not finding that bull, but for me, as long as I know I did everything I could to recover that bull, then I’m gonna keep my chin up and learn from that encounter! It’s all part of the experience man! And it’s an experience that most people (non-hunters) will never experience or understand. Better luck next time sir..
    The more alarming thing to me about this story is the Angina!! You wouldn’t catch me out in the woods solo ever with things like that happening.. risky if you ask me dude!
