Title: First bull! Family affair
Post by: 400out on November 02, 2009, 05:07:12 PM: I got my first bull on Saturday I'll give a little run down it was the wife and my brother I took this great spike down in a window of trees with a 5 foot avenue for a shot' that was the easy part then we spent the next 6 hours remembering how big a elk is! down hill still hard ( especially with the opening day hang over!) He is 25 inch on one side 24 on the other.
