Thanks everyone. Saint Jeff and some mule tape saved my arse ! Died 300 yards from the ranch so Jeff ran the tape upmto the bull and pulled him out whole. Wasn't quite as easy as it sounds as he dropped dead in his tracks right in the middle of a boggy elk wallow on a creek. Downed timber surrounded him so pulling him out was interesting to say the least. Then pulled him 300 yards to the ranch and loaded him up. Going gutted whole to the butcher in the morning. I can't get pictures to load from my Iphone to I texted one to dotman to post. I'll tell the story tomorrow.
Congrats Shrek on a well earned bull. I knew if you got to know that area you would seal the deal. I never had a doubt. Also glad to help you get him out. It was the end ot a good day of helping hunters around the ranch. Your bull made elk number 4 yesterday I hauled out through the ranch from the public lands borders for hard working public land hunters. Hunters that are not afraid to leave the road and the truck seats and really hunt like a man.
