This is a very special episode for me because I’m joined by my oldest son to tell the story of his first ever harvest. Hendric finally drew the AZ Youth Rifle Cow Elk tag, and that meant we were heading to my favorite elk spot…the exact area where I harvested my first bull. In just two days we had a several really cool encounters, the bulls were still bugling, and he finally connected on the morning of day 2.
I’m still beaming with pride over this one, and it’s a hunting memory I’ll cherish forever. I was also fortunate enough to capture the adventure on film, so if you’d like to watch the hunt unfold, you can see that HERE.
