Tag: Bull tag
Season/Hunt: Archery, partner hunt
Time/Date/Location: 16 September, 5:40 PM; in an elk state
Camp/gear: Base camp.
You are the shooter in a cold calling setup. Your buddy (caller) is behind you, off to your left a bit, about 25 yards and has successfully called this guy in from your 3 oclock, across the small opening, to a point where the bull stops and decides to advertise his bullhood a bit by thrashing a small fir sapling. You know its 35 yards to the bent over pine that the elk has so rudely stopped on the other side of. It's the 5th day of your 10 day hunt and light wind (thermals actually) is/are blowing as shown from where you are located. You're on your knees at full draw with good cover to your back, in the direction of the yellow arrow.
Shoot or no shot here?
Reminder that if you save the picture to your desktop and open in MS Paint, you'll be able to place a spot, X, or whatever on the critter before you save it back to a jpg and add the marked up pic with your post.
