Wife got her her 1st bull on the opener.  Perfect 42 yard quartering away shot buried to the fletching. He made it 75 yards. Couldn't be more proud!

Is that tine right above her hand busted off?

On the 3rd day of the season, this guy walked in on me to 22 yards and I let the Hoyt eat. Came in without making a sound other than the small twigs he stepped on. Wasn't the monster 6x6 I had at full draw for over a minute the day before with no shot, but I'm not one to pass up what I consider decent bulls

Hunted hard through smoke filled days last weekend and got one bull to bugle then he went quiet. Then yesterday my brother and I got out early and around 8am a large herd ran right into our area. Missed a long 70 yard shot early. Got a little down, pulled myself together and kept hunting into the wind. Had a staring contest with this spike for what seemed like forever, was able to cow call him into bow range, he strutted into a perfect broadside position and I split my 40/50 pins on the boiler room. Double lung’d him and he didn’t go 20. Thankful for my brothers help packing out. My second elk, first bull. I feel blessed.
