Good year!

[Duck-Slayer]

This year has been amazing! I was able too get my buddy Matt his first bow kill, it was this nice 6x6 bull, the very next day we called in this spike and I smoked it,

I bought a 2nd archery elk tag here in Idaho since my actual hunt days that I had off(last 2 weeks) was not here yet when I killed the spike. Called in 4 bulls and saw a 5th in 5 days, this particular 6x5 "got it" at 6.5 yards.....

"Good year!", That might be the understatement of the year!! Way to go, on some nice bulls, and follow up to that bruiser buck!

Wow, you guys are going to create a run on freezer paper....

 

[LCH]

When you're hot, you're hot!

A big negative, I boned him the way he laid, it wasn't pleasant....

Not the first 2, there was 2 of us, this last one I was by myself, it was very tough for me(injuries) slows me down a bit, steep too, recovered bull at 12:20 PM and got back too camp at 7:30 PM, ended up being .6 miles too trailhead, the hard part was the 80 yards up too the trail, all knee high tangle brush.... Terrible steep stuff,

I think that its a bit better than a good year...3 bulls in this early in the season is an awesome feat

 

[fishing4sanity]

Yes, yes indeed that is a very good year's worth of elk right there, congrats!

 

[Mica Man]

And all this talk about wolves killing all the elk in Idaho! Congrats on your successes!
