very fortunate. saved you a lot of days, hours...that's a big hesitation for me in DIY elk in big country, particularly ingoing back in several miles-- I guess the only solution isto find a few guys like you did, would imagine in this economy, you can find people with horseswho would be willing to help out.

Yeah, I could not have been happier with the bull but I will be pickier on the muley. At the time I shot him we had been seeing squat for deer and I did not like the thought of mounting my tag on the wall so he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time to live through the day!
