Thanks for sharing! Awesome.

Getting that close to a bull would be amazing!
Thanks for posting the story.

Nice looking bow, do you mind me asking what it is and what are the specs?

Yes...I love these non-whitetail adventures. Grass is always greener you know. What an experience having that big rascal that close. Steam coming out of his nose blowing in two directions and slobber dripping from his bottom lip. I can feel it.

Great hunt Jim. Thanks!
