[QUOTE="McMillan, post: 694614, member: 34843"] To finish the story, we found another good bull a few minutes later on a different part of the canyon. This one was at 780 yards and not in direct line with the sun. And though my position wasn't ideal and just prior to get reading to get down on the rifle, I turned quickly to get my backpack from behind me and ran a dead tree branch into the eyelid of my right eye. Fortunately by eye was not hurt and my vision was clear, but blood was running down my face as it cut the eye lid from corner to corner. Just lucky I apparently had my eye closed at the time. I got down on the rifle with blood running down all over the stock. I didn't want to wipe the blood away for fear I would get it in my eye and since I shoot right handed and use the right eye it would have been a mess. In any case I made the shot, on camera and the bull fell right where he was standing. Immediately after the shot I stood up and explained on camera that I did not get scope bit, but rather it was a tree limb that got me. We really did have a great time. If you would like to see what Elk hunting in Arizona Unit 22 south is like watch the episode either on Extreme Outer Limits TV Dec 26th or a week later when Len posts it here on LRH website. [/QUOTE]
