Here is my first elk..not a bad bull. He was young, but the Montana hunt was ticking to a close. Friday the 28th at 8:15am. I will never foget it.
Left home in Billings--took the wife to the inlaws on Wednesday 26th in Provo, UT. Left from Provo to go back to Billings Thursday. Hunted one last time Friday(got the elk). Dropped the elk off at the butchers in Billings at 4pm Friday. Got back to Provo at Midnight. Then I just got back to Billings an hour ago(Sunday the 30th at 11pm).
Would I do it again next week.......YES. Nothing in the world beats that feeling when the tag is in your pocket and the animal is in the cross-hairs. What a rush.
Ruger M77 30.06 Nosler 165gr. Accubond. 147 yards...fell over at 250.
