2025 elk meat pole

[KsRancher]

I wasn't even going to go this year. Woke up Wednesday morning and looked at the reissue list just for fun. Told the wife "I ought to try for that tag". She said "go for it".

Actually got it. But couldn't leave until Thursday evening. Drove all night, waited on Walmart to open at 6:00am so I could get my tag printed. Got to my hunting spot a little after 7:00. Bull down at 8:50am. Quartered and in game bags by 12:30pm. Packed out by 2:30pm. Told myself "I think I can make it back home". That was a little ambitious. Had to stop twice for a 1 hour power nap. Pulled in the driveway at 4:30am.

600yds from the truck as the crow flies.

Best bull to date. May never top this guy. Thirds for days are what got me excited about him.

Hell yeah ! Gorgeous bull ! Guessing 370+ …? Narrow in the back but those unreal fronts and thirds more than make up for it !
