Actually, he told me he had no intentions of shooting that bull because he would not have been able to pack it out by himself. He was asking a lot of questions and 1 of my partners thought he was a trooper but I don't believe he was after listening to him talk about why he wouldn't harvest the...
This was a HT hunt, I shot that bull on the side of a mountain about half way up and the only way to get him down was to quarter him with the hide on, bag the cut ends and drag it down the mountain. It made it heavier to drag but it saved the meat in a big way. We saw a lot of bulls in the week...

I'm headed out on the 29th for 2 weeks for moose, if you need a cape let me know before I leave and I'll save you a cape if we manage to kill a bull or 2.
I sent you a PM with my...
Glad to hear you 2 won't be charged with wanton waste but it's a damn shame that all that meat went to waste. Shankster needs to be held accountable for his actions (more like inaction).
Were you guys planning on doing a shoulder mount of your bulls? Since you lost the capes I might be able...
