Haha I’m pretty sure I used up all my luck for the next 20 years. I’ll be back to shooting tender meat bulls soon enough

These Arizona bulls really make me want to draw there!  Congrats to you both and to all the others finding success back home.  Hoping for an MT meat bull in a few weeks.

Yeah tvandy45 you need to slow down. The rest of your hunting years will be mediocre at best if you don't!  :chuckle:

I’m definitely not an elk hunter so this was an experience.  Buddy killed a bigger bull.  2 bulls in 4 days and 1.5 days spent just packing meat.  I am completely exhausted.  New appreciation for dedicated elk hunters!  Wyoming.

That's a beauty jjhunter.  I would say I sympathize with you but I've been working on elk hunting for 6 years now and haven't harvested one soooooo...  NO sympathy for you! 

Congratulations though!
