Great job and a fine job on recovery that cow.
Cow elk is about the finest table fare anywhere.
Good choice.

Congratulations, well done.

The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

Congratulations!

Your experience brings up a great point for consideration.
When you have an either-sex tag in your pocket especially if it's a unit that takes a while to draw, it's probably a good idea to mull it over beforehand whether you are going to take the first available shot or wait on a big bull. No right or wrong and it may change during the hunt but I think it's important to have thought about it before you start an internal debate when the opportunity comes. Usually not a lot of time to scratch your head.

Bill,
Contrats on a successful hunt with a recurve !!!
Too bad about the bears - it is really amazing how fast they can locate your downed game.  Too bad use humans don't have those abilities ....
