BEST Bull Elk Photo Contest 2016- Sponsored by Kifaru

First western archery hunt. First elk tag. DIY and solo, three miles from the nearest road on Arizona public lands.

 
I'm not going to win any photo contests with my camera skills.....or lack thereof (LOL). But here's my solo CO bull this year. He was down in less than 5 seconds and went 112 feet according to the GPS.

We got it done in Nevada, area 091 in the Pilot Mountain range. After torrential downpours for 48 hours straight, it finally broke and some bugling bulls were starting to get fired up. After a couple more days, we were able to call this stud in to about 50 yards with cow calls and bugling, in a very thick pinion forest. After letting out a gnarly bugle right in our faces, he saw us and finally stopped on a small dry creek bed, giving a 180 yard shot. A perfectly placed .308 shot with a Barnes 168 gr. TSX put him down in an instant, no tracking required! Little sis made and excellent shot and was a total stud carrying the cape and antlers out over a mile. Very fun hunt, they are truly amazing animals! 370" gross with two 22" fronts and a 48" spread!

There is a tutorial on the forum, or if you have a smartphone get the Tapatalk app it's pretty self explanatory. For example click on the picture symbol to upload pictures.

The best way to do it is with a photo hosting site like photobucket. Upload your photos and then insert a link. If you can't figure it out, email them to me and I can post them for you.
