Awesome pics Coach! Thanks for sharing. It helps me keep my intensity level up for this December when I go on my dream hunt. Nick

What a way to put it all together! That is like a mini western safari right there! Congratulations. You WILL be eating good my friend! Nick

Looks like some tasty meals are coming your way! Way to go! I've killed a bull, but am 0 for 5 on cows with my bow. That's a great accomplishment for sure. Nick

What a great start! Congratulations on a fine trophy! Nick

Garrett! Great work young man! I'm sure you've made your dad and many others very proud of you, including me! Congratulations, Nick

Hey I think I know that guy! Pretty sure he's from my neck of the woods. Bert! One in a lifetime trophy right there! Freak Nasty is exactly my thoughts. Great job to all involved! Nick

Fantastic results on your hunt! Good on ya! Nick

Any more pics? Really tough to see, but I can tell it is a dandy! Congratulations! Nick

Holy Smokes! What an awesome specimen! That is a bull to be proud of. Congratulations! +2 on the story! Nick

Sorry to hear about the unfortunate turn of events. If you think you got in the vitals, stay after it, he's dead somewhere. If you're not so sure, like Blake said, those critters can live a long, long time on a marginal hit. Regardless of what happens in the end, keep your head up high. If you bowhunt long enough, something like this happens to everybody. It is clear that you have been putting in a tremendous effort on your hunt and recovery of the bull. There's no shame in that. I really do hope you find your bull! Best of luck, Nick

Hey Stan, Great report. Now finish the "honeydo's" and get back after it! I'm confident you can close the deal. Best of luck to you. Nick

You really need to buy a few different boxes of some different cartridges and try them at the range on a bench rest. I have a .270 win also, and tried quite a few "premium" rounds. It seems like the more expensive they are, the worse they shoot in my gun. After trying probably 5 different brands, the Remington Core-Lokt from Wal Mart, less than $20 a box shot better than any other I tried. We're talking 3 shot group less than 1.5" MOA at 200 yards. Nick

Good on you guys! That is a great pronghorn! Well worth the wait I am sure. I was very fortunate to have some great help before and during my hunt as well. Makes it that much sweeter when there is someone around to share in the good times! Nice work, Nick

Fantastic! Congratulations! Well earned trophy! Nick

Whatever diaphragm you are comfortable with and a Elknut Productions Chuckler or Mini Chuckler! I agree with the guys about the less is more concept with calling bulls unless you absolutely have to challenge the bull. If you're going to do that, you better be in close, like in with his cows close. In my experience in most cases they are going to clam up and move out when you sound like a big ole mean herd bull with the agressive bugles with the grunts and chuckles. Nick

Now there is a businessman that realizes that his reputation is worth a lot more than what he earned doing one mount! If only the dude that did the hackjob on the lion had such sense. Kudos to both gentlemen! Nick

Matt, Sent you a PM about javis. Nick
