Yesterday was openning morning of the late hunt. We had been scounting for about 5 days before the hunt started and had seen some nice bulls. I was hunting with David Combs and his wife Sona. Janis and his hunter Rick saw a couple of nice bulls the evening before the hunt started and gave us directions how to get there. David is 70 years young and is a very experienced hunter. David, Sona and I were waiting in the dark on the point where Janis and Rick told us to go. At first light I glassed up a bull bedded at 310 yards. After 20 minutes of trying to get a rest David connected on a great late hunt bull. The bull has seven points on his right side and had seven on his left but broke a couple of points during the rut. When cutting up the meat for the pack out we found a 3 blade Rage broadhead and 4 inches of arrow in the bulls left shoulder. It took Janis, Rick and I most of the day the get the bull packed out. Here are a few pictures. David and Sona where great to hunt and share stories with. I look forward to spending more time with them again someday. I hope am still hunting when I am 70.
