Utah Bull and Late New Mexico Bull

Hey, that guy on the left looks awfully familiar. Probably not as popular as you, but I know him from someplace😂
Someone told me it was Luke Combs

These elk are driving me mad. I've been trying to find them in the day, knowing exactly where they come out at night. I am in meat mode...I need to conquer the mountain.

Not how I wanted to fill my special bull tag. 15 points used for it. And it didnt help the freezer. I am going to write up a whole story because I always enjoy read other's write ups, and it was an exciting tag along the way. To sum it up, thought 100% that i had missed. Looked for him anyway for the rest of the day. Thought I saw him healthy with cows. That was a different bull. Stumbled on him today. All meat green as can be. Very bitter with myself about it.

That cow's head looks huge to me.  I think a euro mount of the skull would look cool.

Rbros rifle did its job. Cow was bedded at 200 yards. Head dropped to the ground on impact, never left her bed.
Pain is temporary, achieving the goal is worth it.

I didn't say it would be easy, I said it would be worth it.

Every father should remember that one day his children will follow his example instead of his advice.
