" I knew I'd smell the bull long before I saw him in this thick country so I decided to start at the top of the mountain and work my way down until I covered the entire mountain side. "
If I'm ever fortunate enough to hunt the mountains, be sure I'll have this tip in the back of my mind. Well done!

Wow. What a trip. I think it's almost always better to go solo on a track job when your unsure of the hit. Two guys might have bumped him again. I would have thought he would've been down with two shots in the paunch after 8-9 hrs. Tough critter.
Congrats on the success of the relentless pursuit. Thanks for a great example of will power and a job well done!

Great job and great storytelling! Thanks for sharing. Work kept me away this year, so stories like yours helped make this season a little easier to take.
Come on Sept 2014!
