Takes a hell of a lot of discipline to score that elk. Congradulations!
I've missed a smaller herd bull at 8 feet, nerves were shot! Good job!!

Great bull! There is nothing like hunting with a stickbow. I enjoy compound, rifle, muzzleloader, or handgun hunting, but Every hunt I make with my recurve is about as good as it gets.

Good job!

Now, that's a man's bow, and a man's bull, congratulations! Wow.

It's probably a good thing you didn't kill that one when you were 14.

Pat,

"Keepsakes" is right! Congrats on a bull of a lifetime!

Now if you just might make some elk chili for next years Icebreaker, I might be willing to drive up there for it!

Good luck hunting with your boys this fall,

Best,
Marty

Way great job.

I'm always tickled after hearing long range rifle hunters catching hell to see one pop up with a short range arrow poke to really irritate the idiots!!!

This bull shares some of the same genetics....just needs a couple more years.
