January Navajo Nation any elk hunt

[gordoferg]

I was lucky enough to draw out a Navajo Nation any elk tag for January, in years past I've drawn the cow hunts on the rez, which have been really good. Well my hunt was a big success I was able to put down my very first bull elk. My tag was for any elk and I kept telling my Brother in law, who was with me, I was going to shoot the first elk I see. I wouldn't I have guessed that I would see a big bull first, God gave me a chance and I took full advantage of it. Not only did I kill a beautiful elk, he died 15 yards away from a wood hauling road. My brother and I muscled him in the back of my truck and took him back home whole. I am blessed and so happy that I got to experience my first bull, and got a lot of meat from out of it. The fun part was driving home 3 hrs with that big rack in my rear view mirror. Well thanks for reading and I wish you all luck in the big game draws coming up.

Also there is a NM Bull Zia hat in one of my pictures. The brand is "Game ON" a local graphics designer from Farmington,NM. I love their shirts and hats.

Congratulations great times me and my bro hunt together every year have made some great memories

To draw the tag was the pinnacle of lucky. To harvest a bull of that caliber was the icing and cherry on top. Congratulations on both.

Very nice!

Congrats on a great bull. I bet that was a real job for 2 people to get him in the back of a truck.

Is there some place to get information for this draw? My good friend is a tribal member, would like to hunt, but never has. I don't think he knows about this draw.

Nice bull! I spent a few days on the Navajo nation last February. Some really cool country. Nice that the wood hauling road wasn't a muddy mess. That mud down there gets crazy.

Good for you. Nice bull. But I think you should have fibbed a little and told us after you shot the bull he tried to climb in the truck. Haha
