[QUOTE="pburton, post: 1136235, member: 48978"] Thanks everyone! This bull was as tough as I have seen. His hide was super thick and my knives took a beating. Rooster you are right about cutting through wood. I think that the difference is that the last few bulls that I have shot have been younger rag horn 4's. They were not as big and a little easier to process. As far as my feet go I am getting ready to order some custom fit Russell Moccasins. I have a friend that hunts elk every year and swears by these boots. This will hopefully alleviate any further foot problems with my next elk hunts. Thank you again for all of the responses. Oh ya, one more thing I learned from this hunt. Optics are the key. If it was not for my buddies Vortex Razor spotting scope we would never have found these bulls. I never thought a spotting scope was all that important, until this hunt. I am now looking for my own. Take care everyone, and good luck with your hunts! Paul [/QUOTE]
