Headed up Saturday to help my brother on his elk hunt. Saturday night and Sunday morning we had a couple opportunities on some decent bulls but couldn't get a shot...Sunday morning we chased a couple bulls through one of my favorite areas which has a great wallow. The wallow was pretty tore up...There was a tree stand and a camera on the wallow...but we decided to refurbish a ground blind we had used in the past and sit there that night...We got to the blind around 3:00 and there was nobody in the tree stand and bulls were already bulging...Great! So after about 30 minutes we hear someone headed down the road...a guy stops in front of the blind walks by us about 10 feet away...checks his camera gets back in his RZR...checks his card for a few minutes...never sees or acts like he sees us and drives off...about an hour later the elk start filtering in...there was a herd of 40-50 elk cows calves bulls milling around us...some less than 20 yards for over an hour...the herd bull stayed out around 100 yards and never came to water...A little 5x5 came in and chased cows around for a little while...he came to the wallow but my brother decided to pass...good thing!!...I kept telling my brother I think there is elk coming in behind us...Just as the little bull starts splashing in the water I look over my shoulder and see his bull standing 10 yards away...my brother peeks over his shoulder and the bull sees him runs off about 40 yards...and I think because the little bull was in the water...He just calms down and heads right in...enjoy the video!
