Either right place/right time or my raking sequence actually worked

Congrats to you both. I had to zoom in to see who was dad. Is turn about fair play? Did you guys use a decoy or just calls and raking? Just wondering but if your too busy quartering out elk, butchering, cooking it and freezing the rest I completely understand.
 
Congrats to you both! Early season is great for Raking & low low level Advertise bugling, kinda like the Lonesome Charlie bull. Well done, now it's your turn for Dad to return the favor! Ha Ha! Good luck!

Haha, he's looking pretty good for 63! No decoy or calls. We had a different bull in front of us 20 minutes before that I was trying to draw back in with the raking. Dad frontal shot him at 9 yards, and I hit him at 60 after stopping him with some mouth mews.
 
Way to go Vanish!

Just goes to show that calling ISNT necessary to kill elk! Thumbs up!
 
Actually Raking is calling, it announces ones presence! Can work great too as Vanish has shown!
