Packed in just over 4 miles to one of my favorite spots. It was freaking brutal weather for early September! Massive wind storm was dropping trees everywhere, it snowed 3 inches and temps in the teens.... first day in had a close encounter with a 6 point bull and some cows but could not close the deal. The next morning I got up and bugled into a drainage about 300 yards from my tent. A bull instantly responded. I worked towards him about 50 yards and cow called three times. When he responded he had cut the distance in half. I had to shed a bunch of clothing and try to get in position quickly. I ranged two trees at 28 and 56. He split them, I cow called and he stopped. I put the 40 yard pin on him and touch it off. He spun ran 30 yards and piled up in a tree. I then had the pleasure of breaking him down alone and hauling out two loads before I swallowed my pride and went and got help. He was a super cool bull, kind of a freak. We named him “pork and beans”.
