That was well said at the end. Some people don't understand working for your food. Meaning working a full time job then working 16 hr shifts while out and about in the woods trying to find and harvest the elusive Wapiti. It's far from driving down to Safeway or Walmart buying a couple steaks in 20 minutes. I'm grateful for you and others on this platform that show to the best of the cameras ability what is actually endured. God bless!!!

End speech was Epic! My 14 year old daughter and I experienced this on a drawn youth texas elk hunt. She was blessed with an 800 lb 5x5 bull 300+ yard shot. We look at her mount and its an incredible bond we all three have. Anyone that has never Elk hunted will never understand.

Last summer I had a conversation with Brian Call about how it’s crazy that we go to such extremes to be successful. It’s definitely hard on our bodies mentally and physically. Pack outs can be brutal but when it’s all said and done it’s so rewarding and not long after we look forward to doing it again. Brian’s response to that was, “it’s in our DNA.”

I know it is a rare situation, but what would you recommend doing if cows come in before the bull in the future? I've had a similar situation happen and I pretty much stood still and shut up. Is it better to take this approach or give them a couple soft cow calls and convince the bull to keep moving in? Thanks, great hunt!
@PhelpsGameCalls Жыл бұрын
Typically I’d stay quiet abd motionless and let the cows pass by, and then draw carefully as not to get detected by the bull when the he approaches.
