Daughter drew a cow tag this year in a unit here in Idaho that has lots of elk, but can make you work for them - however with her fall soccer schedule, we did t have much time to hunt. She made it count today! Made a great longer range shot on this big cow with my 7 rem mag and collected her first elk. She was able to tag out with a deer and an elk this year. Super proud dad today!!!

That’s great! I tried to get my 13 yr old son his first elk as well but it didn’t work out. Had basically 1 day to hunt and made a beautiful stalk on a group of 8 cows. They ended up seeing/hearing us getting him set up for the shot. Weather rolled in after that plus with sports schedules sure makes it hard.
