Yahtzee!  Love it when it falls together!  Congrats!

We heard him sound off and closed the distance in the dark timber to about 150yds. Made some noise breaking branches and one grunt/chuckle with my mouth reed and a small bugle tube. My hunting buddy went back and crosswind and continued making noise breaking branches etc.  He came on a steady, proud walk over the ridge and directly toward the noise.  When he stepped into the best shooting lane I had I tried to stop him with a cow call but he cruised  on past the lane still bearing down on the direction of my buddy.  I couldn’t get him stopped so I had to slip an arrow through the reprod branches. He was on a mission to what he thought was another bull encroaching on his herd.  Heavy packs yall!
