And this is a picture of my hand showing you where the elk was (a muddy 6x6 who unfortunately busted me at a clear 23 paces, precisely the range I shoot at in my backyard...).

 


And the same photo minus the hand...

I decided to backtrack the bull, figuring he was really, really muddy so there must be a wallow very close.  Sure enough, I found this little gem, hidden from me until this year... not as good a ground blind as "seclusion spring", but a beautiful little spot, very grassy, nearly as high and almost as secluded.  I sat for a while off to the right, hidden behind a rotting old log but nothing came in.

Wish I had found a wallow or watering hole in my last adventure.

This thread is great. Looking forward to the rest.

Very nice,thanks for sharing!
An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.
