That is awesome!! If you keep that lucky streak going you'll have to buy a long bed pickup. Haha Man, that rack barely fits.
Congratulations!

Congrats! That is an awesome bull  

Awesome bull!! Congrats!!

Very nice, great bull, looks like he fell, you shot him in a place to cause much work.

This made my day!  Great job Joe!

Beautiful elk Whip!  Did you call to him at all?  Or did you ambush him?  Just wondering my friend...

- Jeremy  

Wow!!! "What a wonderful bull!!! Congrtulations again and again!!!! He must have crawled to get underthat overhanging tree. Glad you found him and lived through the packing to tell about it. Again , What a beaut!!!

thanks for sharing him and your hunt with us.,

God bless, Steve

Wondered when you'd post! Chris was showing me a picture you sent him on his phone. Great Bull! Super story too!

Jeremy, no calling at all on my part.  The cows were making plenty of noise and I knew exactly where the big bull was from his bugling and tree raking.  He was coming exactly where I hoped he might, so there was no need for me to mess it up by calling.  All I did was reposition slightly shortly before the herd got close enough to see.

Great bull and story!  Thanks for sharing.  How about a few details about your gear?  Rick.

 

Great Bull!

Joe...one heck of roll for the year!  When are you going to Africa  
I know Paul wishes he could have been packing some of the load.  Congrates!!!

What a fantastic hunt,  way to live your tag line!  Thank you for sharing!

Hot diggity! Beautiful bull, congratulations!      

Rick, my bow was an RER Vital T/D recurve.  Just picked it up this past summer and it quickly became my favorite.  55# @ 29".  Arrows were some Carbonwood 5000's tipped with 175 Woodsman Elite 3 blade and a 100 grain brass insert up front.  Total arrow weight was 815 grains.

You da man Joe, CONGRATULATIONS...
What a Bull

Thanks Joe.  I'm convinced on less than perfect hits like you described, a 3 blade or 4 blade head really shines and makes a difference in putting them down quick.  Rick.

Joe, congratulations on a great hunt and Bull Elk.  Just to be in the presence of that kind of animal would be enough!  Thanks for taking us along!
