Second Chance Bull
« on: Yesterday at 02:17:43 PM »
Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.  I jumped this bull with around a dozen cows in some really brushy timber and challenging terrain.  Got off a snap-shot as he ran through a tight window in the trees.  I scoured the area for blood but never saw a drop.  There were enough elk together I could follow their tracks on and off through some really brushy and steep timber.  I finally lost the track for good about a 1/4 mile from the road and was beating brush back to the truck.  Look up to see some cows on the sidehill and the same bull looking at me through the trees at 50 yds.  Another tight window between two trees, but this time he wasn't running.  Pull up, put one in his neck and that's all she wrote.  Time between my two shots was exactly 2 hours.  Couldn't believe my luck that I was able to track him down and couldn't be happier with this general season bull.

@milldozer

Was the second shot the only one in the animal, or had you actually hit him the first time?
