Wow nice bull! I love the part of the story where you mention fear of an animal hearing your heart beat. I think that is the best part about bow hunting! Congrats!!

Thanks for the well wishes!  I am sure I'll be walking on air for awhile.  For those that were curious this is a west side bull.

Thanks for reading and the comments!

Thank you all for the really nice comments.  Leaving in a few hours to head to Montana so I'll take another big heap of luck I am hoping.  I am pretty sure none of the guys I am meeting are aware I have taken this bull yet, so I have a BIG surprise for them.  Hopefully that will pick up elk camp a bit, so far they don't have one bagged.  My Dad is going along for the camping trip and hopefully it will turn into another packing trip.  The dad in law may show up as he is working in Montana next week so at least it going to be a guys week of fun chasing this wonderful beast!  Take Care & Good Luck to All!!!
