Same, I'd take the deer back a couple inches and the elk a couple inches back and up.......both dream shots!  let-r-fly!

Just like TD, I'd shoot the mulie a few inches left of the dot.
I missed the elk. Right at the dot, but over it's back. I always miss high from that close.

Steve, I can believe he passed that one, I can't believe he passed the other one later   :eek:

Forgot my elk shot. I look here. Gives me a bit of room for error.

I picked the same spot on the muley. The elk has a nice sharp pointed line showing you where to put the arrow. I wouldn't put it back further than that, simply because they're probably gonna move a little when they hear the string drop.

Course if I tried to stick that one ( after recovering from my mild heart attack) who knows where the arrow woulda went...

I don't think I could have hit that elk if he was 5 yards away. I would still be looking at horn.

I would take both shots and aim right at the red dots! Only seven more months till Elk season!

Passed him up?! I wouldn't hesitate for a second if it was first day, first morning, and first elk I saw. He would be in my freezer and on my wall    :goldtooth:

Jeff you could start applying for the rest of your life and probably never draw this unit. Gotta Love UT! But Ole' Steve might get lucky!

Whew, that second bull took my breath away.  What an animal!
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

I hear yea steadman it took me 19 years to draw AZ and they gave me my second choice.That kind of bull is why I aggrivate myself with the draw can't win if yea don't play.

I need to go and perforate my elk target now,Thase pics have got my fire lit for september.

Your right you can't win if you don't play. When you get to 15 for UT let me know, we will see what unit is the best then  :thumbsup:

I would like to chime in, but I'm not sure how to put a dot on the animal where I would shoot it,  can anyone tell me how please?

frassettor:

when you have uploaded the pic to photobucet and see among the others in youre album, you clic right and then choose the function "edit" you can then choose a drawing function, and mar a spot in the pic. Then you have to save it as a copy and then you can show it here the normel way.

Hope that is understandable.

I'd have to pass on both, I've only got my 40# bow with me and it's not enough.   :smileystooges:
