    I was finally able to connect with my first archery bull with 3 days left to hunt. My Dad and I hiked up a ridge that I had been chasing this bull on well before sun up. We could hear bulls bugling as they left the meadow below. Coming up the trail I saw 3 cows coming up on top of the ridge. We heard the bull bugle below us which made my heart beat alot faster. I was watching where the cows appeared looking for the bull when up to my right I heard branches breaking. I looked over and saw the bull coming through the Jack pines. I drew my bow and waited till he gave me a shot at 25 yards through a football sized opening I let the arrow fly and it struck him right behind the shoulder. I had a great hunt and would like to thank my Dad. Without him I wouldn't have learned how to hunt, and he is the reason we found this bull. This bull bled internally and we tracked him until we got a visual and watched him go down. I would also like to thank Kevin and David, without them I never would have been able to get this bull loaded and hauled out. This bull grossed 332 1/8".post-5697-0-04969500-1411589534_thumb.jpg

    With just 11 days to go until opening morning I am finding the anticipation to be almost unbearable. I am passing the time on my days off shooting my bow. I already have my bags packed, I constantly monitor Coueswhitetail.com, and I am pretty sure that my wife (though she will have to cook while I am gone) will be extremely happy to see me go. When I am practicing with my bugles and cow calls (ever since I found out I drew a Bull tag) she asks me if its really necessary. These are just a few of the quirky things I have had to deal with to be ready. Just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat.

    I went to Bull Basin Archery in Flagstaff yesterday, and was surprised at how knowledgeable the staff was. There service was top notch and I would absolutely recommend anybody looking for a good archery shop to deal with to go there. Best experience I have had dealing with an archery shop, and the staff was very helpful.

    I prefer the Magnus Stinger broad heads 100 gr. They come in 2 or 4 blade option, and a replacement guarantee if you damage them, require little if any tuning. Through the Bowhunter Supply Store online they are affordable, which is another reason I chose to try these broadheads.
