Got to my spot in the weeds and made a tumbleweed blind, saw a few deer but no elk. Waited for a while and decided to get up and leave to go to work. As soon as o stood up I took a look around and coming right at me was this big boy. I sat down easily without him seeing any movement, got my Mathew’s ready , he keep coming until he got 41 yards away and started veering off, I sat up and drew my bow, he stopped and looked right at me and I let it fly. Hit him perfectly, he ran around 30 yards and piled up! Close	6	6	Texas	A

The land was still in that mid-day lull, when nothing feels rushed and patience is the only way forward. Dust hung in the air, and the silence pressed in, broken only by the wind brushing past the blind. Then the bugles started. One long, raw call cut across the property, followed by another and another, their echoes carrying weight and authority. It didn’t sound like Oklahoma anymore—it sounded wild. With every bugle, my pulse picked up until I could hear my own heart beating, loud and steady in my ears. In that moment, everything narrowed down to instinct, breath, and waiting. When the bull finally stepped out, he looked every bit the animal those calls promised—thick, alert, and moving with purpose. I eased the rifle up, feeling the solid weight of it against my shoulder, forcing myself to slow down. The world shrank to the crosshairs, the sound of bugling, and my heartbeat. When the shot broke, it echoed hard, and then everything went quiet again. Walking up to the elk afterward, there was no rush—just respect. Gratitude for the animal, the land, and the chance to be part of something that still feels raw and earned. That afternoon wasn’t just about taking a bull elk; it was about patience, discipline, and being fully present in a moment you know you’ll carry for the rest of your life. Close	8	7	Comanche	G
