Excellent job guys good looking bull. Boy I tell you that is one of the best hunts I have been on as far as seeing a lot of game.  I love that shot just left of the brisket, and just right of the shoulder, right in the pocket puts-em down every time.

That has got to be the coolest heart shot I've ever seen.  The heart all cleaned up with a perfect cross in it.  Awesome.  I can't wait to get in there for my muzze loader hunt.   Congrats.

Yeah for us to, we saw over 16 bulls in 7 days of hunting, out of those we had 4 within 45 yards just couldn't close the deal till the last day! Awesome trip, one we will never forget!

Poor bull, looks like he was broken hearted.  :chuckle:   Beautiful!
May that for which I prepare never come to pass.

This was one of my most memorable hunts for sure. The bull at the end of my hunt was just an added bonus. Just being out in God's beautiful creation with two of my three sons will always be my best memory of this hunt. My boys put their hunting on hold just to be with me. Thanks boys you did your dad proud! I had the time of my life. To everyone else, thanks for the kind words. I hope to see all your successes posted soon.

I guess my season is over (unless my boys want some help filling their tags). I can always beat some brush for them. I found the perfect place for this years antlers though. I will be reminded of the good times we had every time I look up there. Good luck to the rest of you. I hope you fill your tags and build some great memories with family and friends.
