Thanks for biringing this back up, it's helping me get more excited about the season coming up.

Jake, again, awesome  

Thanks everyone, it was nice to relive this one again as well....(not that I don't daydream about it on a regular basis  

Tom...I belive it is only appropriate that hat accompany my again this year.

great bull. well done

Jake, I know I read this before ,but it's still a great story and excellent story telling. I hope once in my life I can be in that same position. I've hunted elk many times in the last forty years and have yet to close the deal. My first nonresident archery elk tag cost $25. I still haven't given up. Thanks for the trip!

I hope and pray that one day I will experience a September Elk hunt with my Silvertip in my hand. Thanks for the story!
