So you are actually hunting them in the wilderness??
That's more impressive than elk in a truck bed.

Elk in truck beds (much like mounts, or 'shooting game') don't mean much until you know the story.
A good many won't admit that they are hunting ranches.
Even if they are not, you gotta wonder how much hunting is involved anytime you can get a truck to it.

I'll confess to hunting a ranch once.
It was blast and I had a great time but not any great hunting achievement on my part, easy compared to the Natl Forest.

Skidded a whole cow down from above timberline a couple years ago in one piece. Two of us racing to drag it across the crusted froze snow before the sun hit. Made it to the road before the sun. I don't get many out like that.
