Normally I am discouraged if I miss my opportunity at an animal or my only shot...but when it comes to hunting elk in the rut and you go through the whole experience of calling a raging bull into your lap...there is nothing like it. I have enjoyed some of my best hunts after missing my shot or messing up my opportunity. Elk fever will soon engage within us all! I have never been more prepared than this year and I hope I get to witness the entire rut behavior with my next bull and get the blood flowing!
