[QUOTE="257WTBY, post: 2624002, member: 56428"] I did something similar I put in for years to get enough points for an area that I wanted to hunt and had access to some great elk. I went on a 10 day hunt shot my bull on the 4th day it was a rifle hunt in the full rut. Bulls were bugling 24-7. We looked at lots of bulls over first 3 days. I wanted 400 inch bull. On the fourth day we moved several miles away from previous area. About noon we ran into a bull that had 10-12 cows out in an alpine meadow and there were several satellite bulls around him trying to steal his cows. I watched him for almost an hour looked at him thru bino's and spotting scope for a long time. I said he is good not great but he has non typical points and mass galore so I shot him. He is my best bull ever he scored 378 and change. He has character mass and his horns were really dark colored. I was hunting with my dad and my best friend and yes he was a really good bull but what I remember most was the time we spent together and the enjoyment of the whole hunt. Was I disappointed not to get a 400 in bull? NO, it was my most memorable hunt and the last bull I took over 320 or so. No regrets. Enjoy the time you spend with your grandpa and make memories that last way longer then the meat in the freezer or the mount on the wall. Trophies come in many forms... Good luck and I hope he gets a whopper... [/QUOTE]
