With one tag left this season I bombed into a deep basin for my OTC elk tag and got it done killing the herd bull and biggest bull I could turn up in the drainage. My biggest bull ever. It’s 9.5 miles one way to this basin and it’s one of the most beautiful basins you can hunt elk in. 1 bugle once I slipped into 80 yards of him and his cows and he turned and defended his herd for the last time and shot him at 35 and again at 55. Two perfect shots. It was a beautiful backcountry hunt and I am very grateful for a season like this. It’s been a busy few weeks and I’m blessed to pull the meat I have off the mountain on some beautiful critters!
New Mexico #2If he doesn't shrink too much he's a contender for the New Mexico state record. Complete pass-thru @ 31 yards. Down in 3 steps. 1100 LBS and 410 typical gross. GrizzlyStik Momentum arrows and Maasai 200 broadheads.
44 yards with the Grizzlystik 650 setup and a Maasai 200 grain Single Bevel Broadhead blew straight through the entrance shoulder and exited the left chest of this bull he went 200 yards and piled up. Thank you for a great setup and lethal broadheads. I’m sold for life on em.
I lost a big bull last year[...]
