He is drying now.

Just imagine finding those sheds!

I have considered this..... I truly wonder if he would have injured or killed himself shedding. Definitely a possibility of pedicle damage.

I guess that bull is not much of a fan for closing gates!

Great story & pics

Attaboy! Glad that his feet were comfortable.

Can you drop me a pin?

The saga continued today when I got a 6pt brought to me for a euro from my spot that was given up. Lessons learned

That sucks

 

[Hunter0925]

He is done and on the wall. The extra weight of all of that wire and post is crazy. It ripped the toggle anchor straight out of the wall. I had to move over to a stud and put a lag bolt in it to hold him.

Wow,Congrats!

 

[Hunter0925]

I appreciate all the kind words! This will be something that I never forget and something that strengthens the bond between my son and I.

that’s awesome. Congrats. I’m about to take my 14 year old son on his first elk hunt. This story has my blood pumping.

 

[MTGamecock]

Great stories. Congrats to your son on the Gatekeeper bull! A mount like that is far more interesting than "just another" big bull.

Also, I need to find me a buddy who can pack out a front shoulder, rear quarter, and head in one trip! I'd definitely have his phone number saved on my Garmin Inreach.

Awesome story! Congrats to all
