MY STORY MAY NOT BE TOO EXCITING TO MOST OF YOU, BUT IT WAS A BLAST FOR ME!!
MY DAD AND I WENT ON OUR FIRST BOW HUNT FOR ELK THIS YEAR. ON 9-16-03 I KILLED MY FIRST ELK! IT WAS A BIG COW. SHE SLIPPED IN QUIET WHILE I WAS WAITING ON A BULL THAT WAS BUGLING AND GROWLING AS HE CAME MY WAY. THE BEST I COULD TELL, HE WAS STILL ABOUT 400-500 YARDS OUT. THE COW PRESENTED AN OPPORTUNITY SO I GLADLY TOOK IT!
SHE WAS LOOKING, AND HEADING, DIRECTLY TOWARDS WHERE MY DAD WAS CALLING FROM AND I BELIEVE IF I WOULD HAVE WAITED FOR THE BULL, SHE WOULD HAVE BUSTED US.
WE HAD A GREAT TIME AND WE HAVE MEAT FOR THE FREEZER!!
GOD CERTAINLY BLESSED US WITH A GREAT TRIP!!
I CAN' T WAIT ' TILL NEXT YEAR!!!!!!
