Congrats!

Congratulations on your first bull. There is nothing like it when you take that first elk with a trad bow. I know after field dressing the cow elk I shot and getting it hung in a tree, I just sat there for about an hour thinking back on what I had just done and my hunt for the last two days in the mountains of SW Colorado. After making four trips out to the trip I was wondering if I had lost my mind but after grilling some backstrap, all of the sore muscles went away.
