Best Deer I Have Ever Shot
This is the best deer I have ever shot. This is also the most expensive dear I ever shot.

​Later in the week I lent my ATV and trailer out to my friend. He had my trailer and ATV hooked to the back of his truck when he and I went in on the last day of the hunt.

​We hunted until 11:00. We had a small buck down and my friend volunteered to go out and come back with the ATV to pull the deer out.

​Well, my cell rang about 15 minutes later and my heart sank as our great hunt day hit the floor.

​His truck my trailer and ATV were gone. Some &#@&%$":0) had stole our stuff.

​In the end I was out about $3500. My friend was out about the same with all the stuff that was gone.

I was watching your show on wild tv and thought I would share my story and maybe win a hunt.

​My name is David , My friends name is Mark

Thanks, great show!
Third day: I had to work, so I never had a chance to get out.

Forth day: I headed back and started walking to the area that I saw the elk on day 2. I Bugled a few times as I walk towards where I had seen them and nothing. I checked the time and was about to head back to the truck to get to work, but thought I would try bugling one more time and within a couple seconds, he was answering me back and I was only about a 200m or so from him. Looking at the sea of alders and willows in front of me, I picked the best game trail I could find and worked my way closer to him. 

After about 10 minutes of trying to get past the alders, I make it to a good game trail with fresh tracks. I let out a couple low soft cow calls and get a little chirp back that sounded real close.I took a couple more steps and noticed a clearing ahead of me with a rock in the middle of it or at least i first thought it was a rock. I took another step and looked up and see a cow standing off to the side of the clearing. 


Looking towards the middle and I see this beauty staring at me head on. Not wanting to shoot him head on, I waited for him to turn broad side and hoped he'd stop so I could get a shot. Sure enough he turned broad side and started to walk off. I quickly scrambled to get my cow call and chirped a couple times. He stopped and looks back towards me, about 25 to 30m away and gives me enough time to pull the trigger of my Browning BLR 30-06. He manages to take about 10 to 15 steps and then drops. Talk about the joy, the sorrow, and then complete and utter disbelief that I finally got my first elk and its a Beast!
