Thats what makes archery hunting so awesome!! Close encounters with these huge amazing animals. Usually results is a short tracking job unless you forgot to draw in time. Then its usually a stare down and no shot.

Took my first 2 archery muleys spot and stalk. One 7 yards and the other 13 yards. Both shot out from under the same tree in the same bed.

You have my attention now.

Muley · Feb 26, 2018

Short shots have nothing to do with what weapon you use. It's just a matter of wanting to do it.

All posts by this OP are kept short, lest the spoofer be revealed. Too much typing and a '%50' might slip in, outing the scam ;-)

If he took the shot in the picture he took a shoulder shot. Not good with a bow.

He is a she and she has a habit of shooting animals in the wrong unit but claim they were not told specific information. And she got away with it because her guide is a big name from down south and knows people, like janitors in the office that gives permission to hunt state wide.

What the hell is muley talking ng about? You can see the whole elk. Maybe quartering too just a bit. But that shot is money.

Muley · Feb 26, 2018

Quartering to being the main point. You can't hit the 2nd lung from that angle without going through the shoulder.

Dconcrete · Feb 26, 2018

So the 2nd lung is in between the shoulder blade and the hide on the opposing side?

Not to be a real pecker head, but you don't really have a clue as to what you're preaching.

Muley · Feb 26, 2018

You need to work on your angles. I'm not going to argue about this. I've been at this for awhile.

Shadow · Feb 26, 2018

Stick an arrow 6? above the elbow in the crease and that bull is dead within a hundred yards.

Dconcrete · Feb 26, 2018

You may have been at it for awhile, but clearly,you have zero bow hunting and killing experience

Muley · Feb 26, 2018

I have no bow hunting experience. I'm a muzzleloader hunter who only takes double lung shots. I wouldn't shoot at the angle that bull is at. I'm patient enough to wait for the shot I want.

Wow, I'd send it...

Hey HT, with the shot placement discussion, where did the arrow enter? How far did the elk go after the shot?

You're wasting your breath.
That classless broad doesn't answer questions from peons like us.

wasatchheavyfive · Feb 28, 2018

That's a close experience and a tough shot not to take. Release pressed - Game over.

DeerMadness · Feb 28, 2018

Short range shooting is so unsportsmanlike.

Agreed...
If you are good enough to get within 4 yds. then you should be able to back out to about 120 and give the poor animal a chance.

Elk are stupid and easy to get close to. You wouldn't do that with a mature muley buck. I always considered a mature muley a much more challenging hunt than elk.
