September 10th...Birthday Bulls
Elk
Contributors to this thread:
As a British bowhunter [where we can't yet legally bowhunt], I can either a) hunt abroad and/or b) hunt vicariously through the hunts which fellow Bowsiters are kind enough to share...
Sure, I practice with serious intent until such time as I can get a hunt organised, shooting at least once a week, but foam is still foam [even if it is at elk-sized vitals out to 60 yards, like the photo below...Slick Trick 125 gr Magnums from my Hoyt Faktor 34, 29" @ 60#]
So seeing as I can't bowhunt on my birthday this year, it's going to have to be option b)...
If anyone is fortunate enough to take a bull this coming Saturday [the 10th...my birthday] please share, either with a link to the 2016 Meat Pole on this thread, or as a post in it's own right
Many thanks in advance
Good luck and good hunting!!
Do you think it will ever be legal for you to bow hunt where you live ? If it does become legal, what is available to hunt ? That would suck to live where you cant hunt ! A lot of people in U.S.A. would like to see no hunting here ! It will probably happen here eventually , but I hope I'm not around to see this happen ! To many people in U.S.A. take our hunting rights for granted ! Good luck and happy birthday !
So did anyone notch their tag today?
I wouldn't doubt it Kenneth, but if so they're probably still in the high country. Your fun stops when your bull drops. :^)
Happy birthday by the way. Is the 1970 your birth year? It's my high school graduation year...damn...I'm gettin' old!!!
Guided in the morning and we got within 70 yards of a brute. Hot and dry here. Then spent the evening with my family for our daughters 18 birthday. Happy birthday!
I'll post one my brother shot on your birthday. Shot in Wyoming at 40 yards, 40 yard recovery.
Here is a bull I got yesterday in CO... Happy Birthday!
Many thanks for the birthday wishes fellow Bowsiters...
And heartiest congratulations to Daniel and Chad for kindly sharing their 'birthday bulls'
Greatly appreciated!
And I hear what Rick A says...it may be a time before we get all the success intel
And here's my own post-birthday 'success', shooting yesterday l to r 20, 60 and 40 yards [under the watchful eye of Buddy, our Parson Russell terrier]
Love those Russell terriers. Funny how clean smelling dog they are.
So I know for sure that Daniel and Chad took both their bulls on my birthday, and I'm pretty sure that Gritty Bowman Aron Snyder took his bull on September 10th...
Anyone else able to notch their tags and willing to share?
Not a bull, but shot on the 10th.

Wow...many thanks for sharing Robert; I'll take a birthday bear for sure!!!
And thanks to Tanner as well for sharing a cracking birthday bull
Did I see that a possible P&Y record bull was killed September 10th or am I getting carried away with all these fantastic birthday bulls generously shared by Bowsiters??
Happy birthday Barty ! If you ever get stateside, look me up, we can stick some hogs.
