Where is the story with the picture of your friends bull in the "packout" photo contest? Especially since the picture clearly shows the bullet hole through the brow tine

Yeah....it got a little wild west there for a few seconds. We spent hours getting to where we wanted to be and to get away from the crowds. We came up over a rise and saw about 100 elk out in the meadow with two real nice 6 points bulls but we had to wait about 5 minutes for legal shooting time. With about two mins. left another hunter walked up the other ridge and scattered the elk everywhere in the other direction. We grabbed all of our gear and sprinted across the meadow to hopefully catch the herd going up the other side of the ravene when another herd of about 20 elk came over the other ridge. We were caught out in the open and the elk started to scatter again. My friend picked out the biggest bull and shot him through the shoulders. They started to run for a nasty canyon so I told him to shoot him again. He shot 6 times before the bull went down for good. After skinning him we found 4 shots through the front shoulders, one in the hip, and a perfect bullet hole through the G2 on the left side without breaking it off. It was a crazy few minutes.

Sounds like a great time
