Just returned from a bowhunting elk trip to Montana. Last year I hunted the Highwooods, where I took a big bull. This season, we were in the foothills of the Little Belts, north of White Sulfur Springs. It was the first time I’d hunted this area.
It didn’t take long to learn I wasn’t in the best spot. No wallows, few rubs and fewer fresh droppings left me less than optimistic. Travis Ralls (aka, Zip Code), my camera man, and I covered miles on day one and found only old sign. There was no question we were hunting a wintering ground, as old droppings blanketed the ground in places. We also measured a set of 360-inch class sheds found on the land we hunted.
So, when we climbed atop a ridge early one morning and saw a lone bull feeding with a single cow, we figured it would be worth calling. Once the bull hit the bottom of the ridge we were on, I let out a single cow call on my open-reed Last Call, from Point Blank Game Calls. The bull immediately looked uphill, right at us.
The bull had been acting rutty with the cow, but was also feeding, so we weren’t sure what to expect. Moments later I let out a more seductive cow call, and the bull came running. We lost sight of him for a couple minutes, and when he popped into view, he was 9 yards from us.
Sitting stone-still, Travis and I waited for the bull to make a move, for where he stood I had no shot. Zip Code got some great, in-your-face footage though!
After more than three minutes the bull trotted off. I switched calls and the instant he hit a stand of trees, let out a cow call. The bull came out again, this time perfectly broadside. At 25 yards the shot was easy. My Diamond Fugitive launched a Gold Tip arrow through the top of the heart and both lungs. A complete passthrough and the bull didn’t go far.
After skinning out the bull for a lifesize mount which will go in the new Cabela’s store in Tulalip, Washington next year, it was time to get in some fishing. I ended up with a wild rainbow pushing 8 lbs., some nice brown trout and some gorgeous brook trout.
The bull wasn’t the biggest, but given the tough conditions, lack of elk in the area and seeing how readily he came to the call, I was happy to have some venison for the freezer.I
