okay guys, Here is the scenario. I was up on the mountain over the weekend and before I had been up there for an hour me and a buddy crossed pathes with a six point bull that I was able to lace with and arrow at 26 yards. after I shot him once I shot another arrow at him and wasn't sure if it hit him but me and my friend still ended up watching it die. Before we got to the bull we went and got people and packs to start the task of carrying out the animal. when we found the bull it did indeed have 2 holes in him and the second one appeared to only hit it about 9 inches in front of the back leg and 2 inches up in the belly. The second shot was bad but my fist one was a double lunger so I didn't care all that much. well half way through boning the elk out 3 more hunters came down the mountain and asked if we shot this elk and of course I did I had the arrow and holes to prove it. It ends up that this hunter is the one that put the arrow in the gut and had been tracking it from the next canyon. well after much deliberation we decide to do a best 2 out of 3 coin toss for this bull and I end up losing. I am glad we were able to work this out civily but I still think I should get the bull since I know my shot killed it for sure. So what would you guys do.
