Bowman31 1st bull elk
« on: September 14, 2009, 01:27:20 PM »
The shop is closed on Sun. so I told bowman31 we would go out before he goes over to Idaho with xxx Archer and Bowkill. The day started at 2:30am..with a long drive and then a longer Bike ride, we started hunting at day light we worked 2 other bulls in the morrning and then at 1:30pm we got on this bull. The fog and winds came in strong and fast the bull would Bugle and Bugle but would not move in the fog..so we moved up the hill on him and got him fired up but still would not move in the fog. Now 2:30pm we moved in on him 80 yards and the fog was now gone. I called he Bugled a few more times and then came on a string...a G-String that is....lol...he was running right to me then stoped 30 yards in front of me and 32 yards broadside to Bowman31 as I looked threw my byno's the bull was just starting to Bugle when he got shot with a Slick Trick....it was a great shot...the bull just slowly walked about 20 yards and fell. I was so happy to help Bowman31 get his first Bull elk..The pack was good as far as a 8 mile pack on bikes can be

By my honorable conduct as a hunter let me give a good example and teach new hunters principles of honor, so that each new generation can show respect for their god, other hunters and the animals, and enjoy the dignity of the hunt.

Calling an illegal alien an 'undocumented immigrant' is like calling a drug dealer an 'unlicensed pharmacist'.

If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.
