Muzzy Youth Bull Elk
« on: November 01, 2019, 05:48:53 PM »
Thanks to all the forum guys who helped my son Jack take the New Washington State Record Youth Muzzy Rocky Mountain Elk.  As special shout out to Warden- Tyler Towel who helped send us in the right direction on a number of hunt units in 371.  Thanks to Kilmore and his cousin for the map intel and just giving a kid a lot of hope.  Jack was blessed with a great opportunity to hunt 7 days mostly on weekends before he finally connected on his bull.  He stalked the bedded bull with the proper wind up to about a 130 yards then called him in with a cow call to about 90 yards and dropped him.  The Bull was bugling and heading straight toward him until he stopped and presented a quartering to shot.  The 285 grain Barnes bullet did a great job.  A real nice thing about this hunt was my Dad came with us so we had three generations of Elk hunters dressing and packing the bull.

Hope you guys all have a great season and many stories to tell from 2019. Rick, Jack, and Pappa.

Great job Jack

The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.
