I got lucky & drew a Tule elk tag here in California. Hunting elk in 90 degree heat is a bit different but after a not so perfect 1st arrow & much better 2nd shot I had my 1st Tule elk.

Well Shakey I was stationed at 29 palms mid 90s. Plenty of dove and quail, the deer and turkey hunting was fun. Hog hunting was dirt cheap, chance to hunt elk and desert bighorn as a resident.....much more game than CT. Politics suck everywhere

Well we made it on the meat pole again! We called in 7 bulls this weekend and saw 2 fighting from 50 yards away. My brother was shooter number 1 and I called in this bull and he gave a quarter away at 28 yards and my brother made a great shot. Unfortunately the bull fell next to a bee hive stump, we both got stung but he is allergic and had to pound benedryl. It was 78 degrees so we got it off the mountain quick! My turn now!!

"Nice bull Carcus! Those Exodus broadheads are deadly" Thanks, the exodus are crazy deadly bh's, but not a bh for lower poundage bows on the big critters, i shoot 70 pounds and a fast bow and im not getting passthroughs on elk and moose, im hoping they make a more swept blade version in the future. That said they are my favorite fixed bh

From: blackwolf

Nice bull! How did those Trypans work for you? What poundage do you shoot? I will probably use Magnus Stinger Buzzcuts for elk as I only shoot 50lb out of my Rx-1, but thinking of using Trypans for deer. Good luck with the rest of your fall hunts! Jim from Wis.
From: Paul@thefort
08-Sep-19
Jim, I used the Magnus Stinger Buzzcuts, ie, 125 gr two years ago for elk. I hit a good bull behind the heart but 16 inch back in the intestines. If I had to do that again, I would use the normal straight blades. I do believe they might penetrate better and cut better without the serrations. Just my gut feelings. Shooting a 55# recurve bow at that time. On deer, I would still use the buzzcuts. Paul

Shot was 20 yds with Mathews Vertix, Easton Axis 5mm, Thunderhead Nitro 100. My 4th time elk hunting out West, second time I filled my tag. 6X7 On Thursday my 17 yr old son punched his ticket on a very respectable Wyoming 6x6, is first!!!!

Filled my Reduced Price Cow/Calf tag on Friday. 3rd straight year I've filled my tag on the 6th. Now I just want to help my son fill his tag with a nice bull in a couple weeks. I still have my general permit, but not sure if I want to haul another one of these beast out of the woods.

Paul, same story with me about the Stinger serrated/buzzcut. Got better penetration with the regular straight edges and they sharpen great with the Rada sharpener. I used the 125 gr. 4 blade out of my 50# recurve and got penetration almost up to the feathers behind the shoulder crease. I also used 150 gr. brass inserts (eBay) and 400 spine shafts; total arrow wt. close to 520 grs.

Last call set of last day ... Raghorn comes in and I stop him at 40 ... apparently behind a small nest of twigs. That deflected my shot. Tough end to a tough hunt. To have a chance at a “game-winning field goal with 0:01 on the clock and miss wide-left” is a bitter pill. But sure enjoyed my time with Cnelk, who was good enough to have his bull hanging in the trees at camp before I got there.

Wyoming Gen tag bull taken on the 17th. I made a horrible shot that evening. One I very much regret. But after a few hours the next morning I was able to find the bull. He went 390 yds from the spot of the shot.

Most discouraging elk hunt of my life turned around in one minute. 7 yard shot, 40 yard pile-up, 200 yards downhill to main county road, 8 minutes from my cabin, public land. Girlfriend helped me butcher and pack it out.
The big bull was roaring just ahead but with only 4 days left in one of the lowest success rate units in the state I wasn't about to pass up this guy in my lap.

One of the most fun elk hunts ever! Maybe because at 60+ yrs and a total knee replacement in '17 I appreciate it a whole lot more! 50 yd shot < 75 yd recovery in a "lesser" AZ unit in the random draw! My 10th elk, 8 with a bow! Special thanks to Koury Guide Service and especially Steffen Koury! Congrats to all!

This is my 2019 Wyoming, public land, DIY bull. Called him in to 12 yards. Deadly frontal shot ( thank you Corey). Buried the arrow up to the nock, taking out all the vitals. He went about 50 yards and was dead in less than a minute. 60 lb draw weight, 480 grn Victory VAP TKO arrow, tipped with a Slick Trick Viper broadhead.

Watched the herd the night before. Knew what I needed to do the next morning. Was able to ambush this bull as he followed a cow over a steep ridge top and screamed in my face while at full draw. What it's all about.....
