This wasn't the intention of the post, but since you all asked here's a picture of my bull. It was a public land, DIY hunt in a Colorado over-the-counter unit. Needless to say, lots of hard work and a little bit of luck helped make our trip a complete success. In a unit where the archery success rate is a meager 12%, all 4 of us ended up filling our tags on 4 respectable bulls.



“A peculiar virtue in wildlife ethics is that the hunter ordinarily has no gallery to applaud or disapprove of his conduct...[his actions] are dictated by his own conscience...It is difficult to exaggerate the importance of this fact”.
