Well my son tagged his once in a life time elk yesterday morning, it is a morning that I will always remember.
The expression on his face when the herd started moving over a hill into view was great, especially when the herd bull jumped the fence. We had a little ground to cover to get ahead of them but it all worked out perfect, could never have done it without the landowners assistance, he sure put us in the right location. Was also nice to be able to harvest this guy close to home, about 18 miles as the crow flies.
The herd consisted of about 40 head, one other 6x6 bull, 4x4, 5x5, about 6 spikes and the rest cows and calves, it was quite a sight to watch. The sight of the sun shinning off of them as they grazed was amazing.
