Gordon:
Thank you Sonny. It was a particluarly vivid experience so I thought I would share.

Thank you Cameroo. I pretty much have to hunt public lands so you take the good with the bad. I have pack-in elk hunt planned for the Eagle Cap wilderness in NE Oregon. Still public land, but it will be much less crowded there.

Thank you mullet.

Thank you Noel. I started hunting late in life. I had no idea what what I was missing.

Gordon,

For a few moments I was in that swamp with you instead of this hot and try Texas land. Reading the story was an attack on all my senses and even felt a sense of Withering Heights. It happens to the best of us. The first time I saw a bear, it was so up close and personal that the grains of sand sparkled on his claws and I failed to nock an arrow. Best of luck for the rest of your season.

GregB:
Very nicely told story of the one that got away! Anyone who has hunted much has their own similar stories...mine are about the deer that got away...but not all of them do, get away that is. ;) Good luck on your next hunt, and I look forward to sharing it with you through your stories.

Lee Slikkers:
What a spectacular story Gordon.  Your writing is marvelous and I felt like I was right beside you looking over your shoulder seeing the same images you saw.  What a tremendous thrill that must have been to feel the spirit of a Bull like that...someday I will hunt those Elk!

Thanks for sharing and best of luck on your next encounter!!!

ErictheViking:
Incredible story Gordon, like Cipriano I felt like  I was there. Sincerely hope the next time you see one you get to take a shot.
