About 95% of my hunting is for mule deer and elk with my bow. I was fortunate enough to take a 180 class mule deer last year and a 300 class elk this year with archery equipment. There is nothing more thrilling than completeing a stalk on a big mature muley or calling a rut crazed bull within bow range. Hey StraightArrow, I've had a few of those "wet myself" encounters with elk. I called my bull this year into about 3-4 yards and had him bugle!!! That'll test your sphincter!
