Elk .... Let's see them!!!

2005 - Arizona Unit 10, early rifle. Again assisted by NVLongbow, Jereep, and along with Uncle Larry. Some good locations provided by AZ402, even though he could not join us.

Saw a true giant two nights before season opened. Hunted for him pretty much every day, passing some really good bulls in the process. Passed this one earlier in the hunt before he lost his fifth point on the passenger side.

Ended up rolling the dice and lost, but would probably do the same thing all over if I had the same chance, given how big that pre-scouted bull was. Sometimes finding a big one before season can be a curse, causing you to foresake all others. In Unit 10, some of those you foresake would be lunkers on any other hunt.

Great time on this hunt! Got to see my Nephew get his first Bull. He got so excited that his clip fell out of his gun and rolled down the hill.😂😳 The whole time we had 7 bulls below us not knowing we were there.🙄 He shot first (once I got his clip back to him) then I shot my bull. He shot again at his bull. Then I shot 1 more time and dropped my bull. A couple more hits on his part and his bull went down. We laughed a lot on that pack out!
