Well I got my bull! Have been kinda chasing them between muledeer and whitetail. Not expecting to see them yesterday but it turned out great! 3 shots to vitals with a 7mm mag he was toast! My first elk! Free range west Texas bull.

congrats, that's awesome
If I send my neighbors a text and ask them to give me feedback on my lawn and plant rye into a giant dong pattern, I'm probably going to get some less than positive feedback. Same goes here.
