Headed up North early with my 12 year old son Colton, who is a apprentice hunter. Our group had 2 bull tags and thing were looking good. Went out a few days before the rifle season began with the bow looking for a calf. Walked into the cut after the sun began to rise and had a 40" bull at 25 yards. I decided to get out and leave things alone until Saturday. Hoping he would still be around. Saturday came and the weather was great, nice and still and frost on the ground. We waited till sun light and started to make our way up the cut to our post. We dropped off our first hunter Lumpy, in his spot and made our way slowly up the old skidder path. We had not gone any more then a 100 yrd and to my left stood the biggest Bull i have seen in 15 years of moose hunting. I pointed him out to Colt and he looked at us for 20 sec and jogged off. The good thing is that it was in the direction of our post. We made our way to our rock,the highest point in the cut. From there we saw 2 cows only minutes after we got settled in. We heard over the radio that my brother harvest a 40" bull and one bull tag remained. Now it was going to be a race to see how fills the other My buddy, Jim was now at his post at the far end of the cut. He called us on the radio to tell us he had 3 bull and 2 cows in front of him. He lost sight of them for a while and when the reappeared they were only 60 yrds away and making there way to wards us. Jim could have harvested any of the bulls and was hoping Lumpy or Colt would get their first Now is when I turned on the video cam and began to film. The bad part is i forgot my tripod at the bikes so the footage is a little blurry. heres the vid...enjoy i know i will for years http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCYfUkd8Msk ![]()

Congratulations to the young hunter. What type of gun and what caliber was he using? My 13 year old son has really taken to shooting/hunting as well. He can't wait to go as a spectator with me on the deer hunt. |
