My great nephew Gunter's uncle Thomas Slone from up around Owenton KY had a cow elk tag he wanted to fill. He had been hunting for him a elk a couple months. I told him to come by and I would see if I could help him fill his tag. He stopped in today around 12:30 PM and we headed out. Just as soon as we got in the area we spotted 8 elk about 1200 yds away. We got in a lil closer and glassed them. All 8 were bulls. We went on and spotted a single. Another darn bull. We went on. Spotted a heard of about 15. All bulls. Where are these bulls when you are hunting bulls. We went on and spotted 7 more elk over a raven. All bulls. We went on. Came around a curve in the road and elk were everywhere. Close to 60 of them were cows we guessed. Tom jumped of the Rhino and shot this nice cow at about 70 yds..
That was the easy part. She ran down th side of that hill and died. Man that hill was steeper than a mules face too. We hooked the winch and every cable we had to her and pulled her up on the road. I told him from now on shot the one that is already in the road.
