Well it's nice to be home!!!I've spent 45 of the last 49 days in the field hunting deer and elk.Most of which were guiding. I set a goal to shoot a 350"+bull or nothing on the tag I drew here in Az.in 14 days I passed 9 bulls up to 330 mabye 340.We found a bull on day 4 or 5 that was everything I was looking for,huge frame,big front end, big swords in the 370+ range.The winds were worse than you could ever imagine,I had the bull three times inside 40 yards with the wind in my face only to have it 180 on us and blow him out.When I finally got an opportunity to draw on him,the battery in my rangefinder died(,Murphys law I guess,I wasn't too happy about it).the bull was extremely uphill and I guessed the yardage at 80.shot over his back by a few inches and unfortunately never saw him again,Horrible rutting conditions we endured temps from 75 to over 90 for 14 days,only getting below the 40s on 3 nights,home for a few days and jumping on the Vagabond for 8 days.Life is good.....
