Can’t remember gut shooting a doe...but I do recall gut shooting a little bull elk, that I jumped in the timber. Wasn’t my proudest moment, required a second shot. For quite a few years I hunted elk, like I hunted deer in Louisiana...the thicker the timber the better. No feeders, no stands, no fences, and on foot....a little different than your preconceived concept of lease hunting. Just like hunting in the west, not all hunting is the same! Of course, you already knew that! memtb


You should not use a rifle that will kill an animal when everything goes right; you should use one that will do the job when everything goes wrong." -Bob Hagel
