The pursuit of happiness is best spent In the outdoors doing manly stuff like killing things or fishing.

What a stud old beast. Way to stay with it. I wouldn't feel bad about the way you had to finish him. He didn't get that old by being a wimp. Maybe he identified as a bull elk.  :chuckle:

He ended up getting up and I had flashes of stories I have heard about wounded deer goring people and such. Cause he looked crazy POed and was only 15 feet or less in front of me

Another good reason to carry a sidearm.

Who needs a reason
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

Awesome wall hanger BT.  Good story because things don't always go as planned even when there's success.

Great buck and great write up.  It doesn't always go the way we want, but we always try to make it quick and humane.  Congrats on a beauty and way to stick with it.
