I don't really like following after that toad, but here's my bull

Man, great job on that bull! I would be proud to put my tag on that guy!
It truly doesn’t matter the size. I shoot the first legal elk that I have a chance at. Any elk with a bow is a true trophy! People dont realize how hard it is to kill these majestic creatures! Luck is a huge factor.

Don't take me the wrong way. I am totally proud of my bull and I am very grateful that I had a chance to harvest him.  It is definitely a challenge and some luck to get one on the ground.  I just had a little antler envy.

Found success on Sunday, on the west side. Had great help from friends both calling elk in and packing this one out.

Any elk with archery equipment is a trophy!!!  Great job

Great critters everyone!
It is foolish and wrong to mourn these men.  Rather, we should thank god that such men lived.  -General George S. Patton

My 13 year old daughter Payton filled her tag this morning with an absolute perfect shot out of the 6.5 PRC. Whole family was there.
