Congrats you shot it in the back hip and took his pecker off!!!  Don’t worry, said bull was harvested and most meat was still good. 

That poor bull, probably was wounded for over a week.  You could smell his injury from a long ways off. 
I kill elk and eat elk, when I'm not, I'm thinking about killing elk and eating elk.

It doesn't matter what you think...

Rifle, no idea what caliber. I’m guessing it was shot in the early days of Bull Tag holders hunt that started 5 days before the general opener.

Yea that's unfortunate news to hear, hate seeing wounded animals still walking around and not being finished off. Heard about about a couple in Bethel as well.

Ish happens.  You just never know what the reason was.  I found a broadhead in my bull this year and I’ve been super curious to find out the story behind it.  I want to trash talk the shooter but without all the facts, it’s really not fair.

I'm sure that was sarcasm because it's generally the other way with bows.

Yes it’s hard to be sarcastic on the inner web.. I was being facetious, I’m glad someone put that bull out of his misery

That poor bull, probably was wounded for over a week.  You could smell his injury from a long ways off.

Sometimes, we are our own worst enemy.  Why even make a post like this?  Just more ammo for the anti's.

Cause someone shot a 370” bull and probably are sick it was lost!!  Find the good in the bad sometimes!!!  Anti’s?  They hate us no matter what we do!!!  I could care less about anti’s or liberals.

Most are glad you posted, RT. Maybe you've put someone's mind at ease. At the very least, you represent hunters who do the right thing and take care of the processing of a lost animal.  :tup:
