Oops. Busted at 400 yds in the looking back photo. Happened about 20 minutes before this post. This was his adios move. Pretty nice bull. I was spending day on the mountain where I lost track of a herd that was rutting hard this morning....waiting for bugles to dial me in this afternoon. I had spotted this bull bedded earlier and thought he had seen me and bailed out already while I as backing out and repositioning. Got a little sloppy an hour later when poking my nose into basin to give him a look. My brother was a huge help finding and trailing Bulls since Friday. He had to head out this morning. I think my better judgment and patience went with him.
On to the next bull. Should hopefully here bugling in an hour or two.
Have stayed out out all day every day so far. Camp ain't much but a place to warm up premade elk/moose/antelope dinners in foodsaver bags and heat awesome moose sausage and kitchen sink burritos my wife helped me make...and sleep. Been getting some rain to contend with.
Yesterday was a 7 mile walk about with little to show for it but a few small Bulls But all other days have been great for early September. Seen 25 bulls at least, maybe more not counting spikes. Seeing far fewer cows which is great.
Digging this his hunt so far!
