Last Elk hunt of the year

Another good hunt, this one was in Northern Utah. Luckily we had some cooler weather and found some great bulls. Everyone in camp was awesome, we had a ball and even ended early!!
Joe and I located this bull on the second day and Jed helped us bed it. We waited 5 1/2 hours through wind, rain, and snow, for it to stand up and feed, when it did Joe made a great shot and we got it all on video. My range finder was dead, we guessed it at 350 and it worked.


Joe with his 344 7/8 bull, it rained the whole time we where taking photos. We where able to get the Ranger within 50 yards.


I helped Russ and his hunter Don on this hunt. Chris Munford spotted this bull the night before and we relocated it the next morning. After missing a rushed shot, I was able to relocate the bull bedded down in some thick quakies. I got Russ and Don in on and they waited 3 hours till it stood up and Don put it right back on the ground.


Don's 320 bull, 320 yard shot. Matt Wayment helped too.



Kory and Bob where having a slow hunt, so I took them out on another ranch. I had found this bull the night before and we where able to get Bob right in on it. Bob has some kidney issues but he made a sweet shot and was able to get on the bull fast before it got away. He didn't want to take a shot over 200 yards, but he got the job done at 310 yards. We got it all on video.




Kory and Bob with Bob's 329 3/8 bull. It died less then 20 feet above a main road. One shot and the hunt was over.
