2 Elk Rut Fest in Colorado 2022 Muzzle Loader Elk Hunt

[@RogerWell-b5g]

Great job Greg with getting your hunter onto those bulls multiple times on different days and finally closing the deal.

[@celticoutdoors5452]

Roger Well thank you very much. The hunter was a trooper and worked hard for that bull.

[@Justin_Bellitti]

I cant even tell you how much it bothers me when guides walk up to the harvest and touch it before the hunter gets to. Much respect for you having that practice.

[@celticoutdoors5452]

Yes, sir, as a hunter and guide, that is to me the connection the hunter should have first. I helped them get on him, but the hunter did the hard part and deserved the right to be the 1st human to touch him. I have a ton of respect for every game animal that I guide for, and if you kill it, I will never let anyone touch it before you. I personally normal say a prayer on the animal once they are done with it if they didn't do it, but most of them do it. It's just pure respect.

On this muzzleloader hunt what elevation were you finding the Bulls at?

[@celticoutdoors5452]

These bulls were 11k to 10,800 feet

failed to recover first bull?? same shooter on the 2nd?? glad you were there, he seemed clueless 🤷‍♂

[@celticoutdoors5452]

Bart Wellisley the 1st bull was his son who shot. After spending close to 20 hours searching and most of that was spent at last blood grid searching tons of country. The young man punched his bull tag. He was still carrying his muzzleloader, because he did have a bear tag. The father definitely missed the 1st bull, as I did see the bull later not but 300 yards from where he shot at him. The father did make a great shot on the bull he killed. Thank you and that is why some people should use guides. Thank you for watching.

Lol. The guide looks disgusted at about 10:30 minutes. After second failed attempt.

[@celticoutdoors5452]

Ha ha I would say disgusted, but tired and concerned. Thank you for watching.
