First Archery Elk
 
I was fortunate enough to be drawn for Archery Elk this year in Arizona and was also able to put a G5 Montec through this bull at 18 yards w/ my Bowtech Tribute. I've harvested a lot of deer with my bow but nothing compares to the rush of an Elk harvest.

That is awesome bro! Congrats! Did you have to track him any?

He went 80 yards. The shot went through both lungs so it was a pretty easy blood trail to follow. Easy however is not the word to describe getting him off the mountain. Quite the experience.

I hope you had some help.

I was hunting in Unit 23 on Christopher Mountain. It was the late season hunt so they weren't bugling. I hunted out ofa tree stand that I set up at a natural funnel which ended up working out perfect.
