Was looking the video and this thread over last night and realized just how timely and good that toast was! Thanks again, Jeff!

Yeah! food porn and happy pup bonus photos  Hoping for more of both. "SD was of the opinion that the bull I killed was badly emaciated." My wife and I are now on our 25 wedding and hunting together anniversary. We are "trophy meat hunters". It's all about the finished product. As a result I'm curious about the "badly emaciated" observation? Sick injured poor food supply?
Please don't feed the trolls!

I spent significant time trying again today... it cannot go by USB cable... WIFI Direct will connect the phone to a tablet but then says the file is too large.
Aside from that, the bullet traveled between the axis and atlas , only breaking bone slightly toward the exit side. A radical turn would look very different in the wound channel. imo. OK. There are other ways to skin this cat. I'll give you my YT login. Go to YT, log in as me, hit 'upload video', and select it from your files on your phone. After a few clicks it should upload just fine.

Hey Sitka Deer have you thought about getting an USB stick that plugs into your phone? You would be able to download the video to the stick and then easily upload it to the computer or mail it to KG.
Just a suggestion.

Leighton
as to emaciation... No doubt. I said so when we skinned, outside surface face so to speak, of the backstraps should have been convex and fat covered, They were very concave.
I want all to know that while we all helped as we could, Leighton did the final job. And thats all that mattered. And while I feel I didn't do enough at times, I was privileged to be there. VERY much happy we killed before I had to run and pick up the wife. That said as I noted to them, kill when and where you can. Don't worry about me.
And less folks think I"m more of a prude than I am, a big you are welcome to all that said thank you.
It was very enjoyable among friends for sure.
Regards. Jeff
And the video... hell I"d take a video of the phone playing the video, if I could just see it once. I would like that.

Just a suggestion. Not finding a way to do that... and tried it. No bueno.

Without anything to compare, it didn't occur to me about the fat, but you're right. When SD and I butchered the bull, there was very little fat on any of the meat anywhere. I can only hope that DJ has a mild winter and the herds there can start recovering and getting healthy. Not having any of that 'I didn't do enough' talk. You were instrumental in making our hunt a tremendous success. For that I'm forever grateful. You never saw the video you co-starred in? Damn. We need some technical help for SD, stat! Talk soon, my friend.

I believe Leighton when he said the bison ducked.
I brained a moose (he of the doubles of tines) at about 50 yards, same deal. The bullet was meant for the spine just behind his ears, but he started to duck and turn just as I shot.. When I skinned his head out, a chunk of bone the size of my palm came off the top of his skull with the skin. The brain just sort of fell out. Lights out!
I'll take it. Actually, no my man, I don't believe the bull 'ducked', but in watching the video on SD's phone several times, I'm convinced it turned his head to his left just before impact. If I didn't make it crystal clear before, I'm not blaming anyone but myself for a poor shot. Exoneration is not what I'm seeking or asking for, and never did. In fact that had nothing to do with bugger all. My shot didn't strike the animal anywhere near where it was found I had hit him. I got lucky, period. I would however, love to be able to view the video on a proper computer screen at least. Maybe I'm wrong about the bull turning his head just before impact. Maybe what I saw was the head turning as a *result* of impact. I dunno'. Maybe SD will acquire a fuggin' cheap USB cable and simply download the video to his computer and send it to me to upload to YT and post, and maybe he won't. Time will tell... This is great, when we get the film it will be grainy and there will be much debate, lol. Back and to the left? Was it a mob hit or the Cubans? Was there a grassy knoll nearby? Face it Leighton, you are just a patsy. We know there were other lots of people that wanted him dead, you were framed.

How many of us on here have lost a game animal to a bad shot.
And have had that gut and soul ache for days trying everything you know and could do to find the animal.
Even for days after.... or found yourself weeks after still hoping to find or stumble on it at times.
Raise your hand.

KG and SD, Ya'll done good What a pleasure to read! You surely made the right call whacking that bull. With all the aligned circumstances, that best worst shot had no choice other than killing. Within hours of first stepping on Alaskan soil, I was on the bow of SD's boat putting out shrimp traps. There's no way to describe the overload of majesty that comes with that country. Art has a deep gift for guiding folks into the Alaska Experience, and many have benefitted. He wasn't ribbing about all the red hands holding that .375. KG, I'm so glad you all hit a decent stretch of passable-to-good weather! It's unusual to enjoy an AK hunt without some impact from buggered weather conditions. And private land access from a bison-whisperer? Just gonna call that one Divine Intervention The memories will outlast the steaks bud. Also, beautiful birds. May you enjoy another trip! Jeff

Talk soon, my friend. Nope. Never got a glance at the video. Chit happened very fast between finishing in the dark and my quick trip to FBKs. trust me.. you could video the video and send it this way Art... I'd be happy at a glimpse. Grins. As to the not enough, thats just me. Over 6 miles twice on foot, but I could have done more maybe.lol.
