Awesome bull! A mighty fine achievment for a guys first trade kill! Where does one go from there?

Steve, curious to know, did you use the services of a guide or was this a do it yourself hunt? If you used a guide would you PM me a contact number or info as I have been looking for a good guy in Arizona. Thanks.

Congrats again Steve. You'll have to bring that rack to the MBH banquet this May to show off in person.

I hope Steve posts his story here sometime that I got to preview before it went to our State bow hunting organization magazine. It was a very informative and well written article on an out of state, "do-it-yourself" hunt.

Someday you and I will take the Great Hart by our own skill alone, and with an arrow. And then the Little Gods of the Woods will chuckle and rub their hands and say, "Look, Brothers. An Archer! The Old Times are not altogether gone!"

Hunt It--this was a DIY hunt.  I had hunted turkeys in the same unit a few years back so I had some familiarity with the area.  We did luck out though as the fellow we rented the cabin from was a die hard elk hunter and helped us learn a lot more about the area real quick.  He even went out with us a the first couple days to get his "fix".
