After a break from success of many years, finally got close to one in North Idaho.

Nice, congrats! Looks like two old warriors there.

Nice bull! Tell us the story.

Nice bull.
Congratulations, should make for some good eats.

North Idaho elk hunters never give up ! (well, maybe after we die we might but not before then)
Meat in the pot,
Good Hunting

Thanks guys! I cannot hunt hard anymore. This bull was flushed by my niece and came running by at about 250 yds. We were actually able to get the ATV right up to him which sure did make for an easy pack! Below is an additional photo of my niece and the head on her ATV.

That's using your head instead of your legs.

Nice shooting and nice bull.

Congratulations!

Nice bull! Good on you and your niece.

Congrats...nice one. What did you shoot him with?

Ya, and the one with his nose in the dirt lost lol, nice bull IEH, congratulations and well done.

Congratulations

Rifle is my old standby and very mundane...1903A3 Springfield 30-06, excellent shooting handloads which pattern at 0.75" or less at 100yds. Hornady 165gr SST, 51.0 grs H4895. Bought that rifle through the DCM in the sixties for $10.00 and $2.50 shipping. New and unissued. Kind of wish I had kept it that way! But it is a great shooter and has taken piles of deer, antelope and elk.

That a damn nice bull! Congrats !!!!

Good job. But you don't look that old!

Well, the old body sure insists at times. Creeping up on age 69.

Well you don't look it!! Again, a great bull!!!

Congrats, Pretty darn nice bull!! Just keep doing it! You may have to hunt closer to the truck, you may pass on a shot of two you'd have taken a few years ago, you may even sleep in on some of those "really crappy" days...... But, don't stop! memtb

Big Fin (Randy) needs to learn FROM you.
