There is no way to coexist no matter how many bumper stickers there are on Subaru bumpers!

Wow, I hope you had help at 7 miles in and 2000' above camp in what looks like warm weather. If you got that bull out and it's still edible you are one tough SOB and my hat is off to you! Good job.

Wow, I hope you had help at 7 miles in and 2000' above camp in what looks like warm weather. If you got that bull out and it's still edible you are one tough SOB and my hat is off to you! Good job. No, I am not that tough....It was the hottest day of our 12 day hunt, temps reached 80F that afternoon. I shot the bull at 10:15a, we waited 30 minutes and began tracking, he made it around 200 yards before expiring. Luckily, he laid in the shade or the outcome might of been different. My hunting partner went down to camp and led the mules back up while I quartered and bagged the meat. We led the packed mules back to camp where we had a nearly ice cold spring rushing out of the ground 100 yards away. Knowing we would not make the 7 miles back to the truck without spoiling the meat we decided to lay the bagged meat in the spring. We chilled the meat overnight and packed it all out the next morning. The pack out from camp to the truck was 4.5hrs, so even though I would of preferred not to soak it in water, I believe it was our best option as all the meat remained unspoiled.

I've seen more well-shot game lost with TSXs than any other premium bullet.
