Congrats on the hard work to re learn everything.

Nice bull! 
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'.

congratulations, that's a nice elk and a true trophy (as any animal harvested with any weapon) but even more so because of all the time and patients it took to learn to shoot left handed, way to go.

I heard you were successful, do you have a story?

Mine is not near as good as yours:) Hunted our normal spot and there were a few too many guys in there so I went up to another wilderness area and found a lil guy that I ended up calling in 3 times before I had a clear shot at him. I was raking trees, bugling, chuckling, and all that good stuff.  He was pretty brave to come into what he thought was there:) Put one right above the heart at 28 yds.  He went down the hill just a lil ways and piled up. We ended up being less than 3/4 of a mile from the trailhead.  So it was a nice easy pack out.  Glad I built that new cooler.

Awesome, you're getting pretty consistent at this game...

Congratulations, I had thought about switching to left handed after I found out I was left eye dominant but decided it was just easier to close my left eye when I shoot.  Way to keep dedicated and make the change!
