What a deal! Congrats! That cow is huge! Good work on tracking her. It can be so hard sometimes on marginal hits

Truth be told, it was a gut shot. No blood trail. I spotted her in a thick draw a couple miles and a couple ridges over, that was 7hrs post shot and she was still on her feet. I watched her bed and we went back in the following morning to find a dead cow right where i had put her to bed at. Luck was on our side as well that day.

That is very cool! Would love to get my dad out west for a hunt but don't think his heart could take it. So I cherish every moment I get to hunt with my dad.

Wow! That is a hunk of fine grade A meat for the table! Mouth watering quality! For not being good at writing stories, I sure enjoyed your post!

Grats to your father and yourself for a quality time and great archery success story! How I would love to have a cow in the freezer! That first elk is always an elk of a lifetime!

Thanks for sharing!
