Nice work mate.

Great hunt!

I love the part where you crawled within 30 yards of the cow...what a feat very cool!

Congratulations that's a beauty of a bull!    :clapper:

Bears can attack people- although fewer people have been killed by bears than in all WWI and WWII combined.

Congrats! I can only hope to enjoy the success that you've had, and I can imagine there was lots of blood, sweat and tears (ok maybe no tears)along the way. Thanks for the pics and story.
