Great story and great job! Redman

Very Nice!!! Redman

Plenty....seen many of bucks fall to the 243 past 300 yds, the most damage I have ever seen to coues. I would rather shoot a 243 to 300 yds than a odd 6. Redman

Dear GameHauler, Need some help/advice. This weekend I hit a tree branch with my popup which resulted in a hold about the size of a fist in the front panel, no other damage. What is the best way to repair? Thanks Redman

The "spider bull" is a free ranging bull and was pursued by many hunters this fall. If you visit Bowsite or Monster Mullies there has been plenty of talk about this bull for the past 4 or 5 months, it eluated hunters last year. Redman

The rut was strong and I seen action two weeks before the archery hunt started. Redman

Stock Market Crashes....
Redman replied to tommat's topic in Political Discussions related to hunting
Umm. what party has the majority in the house? That crazy eyed speaker cannot even get her party to agree with it, plus what kind of f###ing retard insults the other party before the vote...? It is all wrong neither party cares about the common person. Redman -
Nobody??? I have been wondering myself. What about the Golden Ring HD Binos? Redman

I was very fortunate to get this bull, after putting in for a long time I drew an elk tag. The hunt was great. I was able to share it with most of my long time friends and a new friend that I met on CWT.com After seeing and passing on multiple bulls and getting busted by many other bulls (some bigger, some smaller, see AZRAYN’s post….) it all came together. After hunting for 6 days with friends of 25+ years, they had to leave and get back to the world, suddenly I found myself alone (in the previous year I had taken an elk in Colorado by myself, and I knew I would be in for a chore), but a CWT member I had recently met (KRP) said he would be able to hunt Wed night and Thurs if needed, I gave him a call…game on! KRP arrived before 2:00 pm on Wed, after getting ready, we set out in an area that we were going to give 30 minutes or so. Immediately we got a response from our bugle and we set out. Not much happened after that, wind changed…. same story that I had experienced for the past week….., we and decided to go to another area….. then we spotted some cows, as I went to cut them off KRP motioned that a bull was coming right at me. I got into position and all of a sudden another bull was coming out of the timber but below me. The bull coming towards me turned around and began posturing for the bull below and began to rake a tree, I stalked up and got within 20 yds. I had a dilemma on my hands, I was trying to figure out which bull to go after….but with a bull at 20 yds, I drew back, the bull spotted me, barked and took off and began bugling. I motioned to KRP to call and the bull below came in on a string, I ranged a tree at 40 yds and when the bull stepped out, I let my arrow fly but it missed low, I knocked another arrow (and it came off the string, once or twice as I began to shake) I finally got another arrow knocked and ranged the bull at 60 yds, the arrow left my bow and sound great, but I could not see the bull as it ran off, KRP said the shot sounded good and watched the bull go in circles, not wanting to celebrate to soon we waited, then we began walking up and found him piled up no more than 46 yds from where he stood. The WacEm from my PSE X-Force below through. The rest is history… after 6 hours or so, I was asleep in my bag. At least once every hunter should experience an archery bull hunt. I cannot thank KRP enough for his help and all my other friends for making this a memory of a lifetime. I had also met some other great hunters from AZ and other states…. Redman

Nice looking pictures there, now that you got your first bull, you can set a size a goal for the next time (that is what I plan on doing). Redman
-
I do not really recall too many with short thirds, it turns out this bull probably has the shortest of any I saw, to be honest, I only looked at his fourths and fifths and realized it was a bull that I would like to take... I did see many bulls with one side being great and the other side being much smaller (not broken). I also seen many palmated bulls. Redman

Very nice, glad you put him to sleep! Redman
-
Very nice, congradulations sounds like you had a great hunt with friends and family. Redman
-
That is sad news, a friend of mine called Mercer right when the draw results were out and was told they were not allowing access this year, they did not tell him about the outfitter..... Good Luck Redman
-
32 has been harder and harder to get access, I have not hunted there in a few years, I know this sounds like a cop out, but I would start with the hunt unit reports from the Game and Fish and get off the road a few miles...... Redman
-
Nice job, it is amazing how the bulls in such close proximity can be going crazy while others are not doing anything. Redman
-
Like those curves... great bull and great story. Redman

Redman Redman, What a stroke of luck that we were both hunting the same bull. What truck were you driving around up there? I drive a red chevy Z71, I was camped about two miles west of Gentry/162, off the 300. We chased him north from about a mile south of were you were parked into that canyon. He ended up bugling off and would not respond anymore, this was around 11:00, I knew he was a great bull and I was glad to hold his rack, honestly am glad Russel got the bull. I figured we bumped him to hard....what a learning experience, he went back for his cows. How far from your truck did the beast die? Redman
-
Ryan thanks for posting the story. Believe it or not, I had that bull at 20, 60, and 80 the morning of. I saw where your truck was parked off the 300 in the afternoon....and I was there in the morning. Driving back to camp the next morning (Tues) I stopped by Russel's camp and admired the bull. He is a GREAT PERSON and shared some prospective spots with me (since I had not tagged out, plus a few clues where he took that bull). I was not sure if that was the same bull because his truck was not parked there.....yours was, but now I put two and two together. When I left Russel's camp I was filled with envy (I hope I would not be the only one after being so close to that bull), but after reading your post and after meeting Russel, I am glad he got that bull instead of me. I hope he has a great time in Idaho. Redman

KABLAM!!! Down goes goaty...great job. Redman

I also have a pair of the Pentax, 12.5 x 50 SP and also have a pair of 15's Swaros.... and not to step on your toes... there is no comparison between the Swaro's and the Pentax. I cannot even look through my Pentax anymore. Great glass but when you get used to looking threw the Swaro's you will feel the same. After all, early morning and late at night is the "prime time" to find those deer moving. Get the Swaro's you will be happy. Redman

They can be hard to find at times, I ordered some though Eagle Optics. Redman

I will stop there (is it on the north or south side of 260?). Redman
