Here is my 2024 solo backcountry archery bull in Idaho. I was fighting high temps the first weekend, but made it back in following the second weekend. It was still 90 degrees when I left my pickup on Thursday evening however, the only way to be successful was to be in there. I had multiple 6-point bulls on camera throughout the summer in this one drainage and I had hoped one or two would stick around throughout September to hopefully provide me with an opportunity. I was able to work this bull into 32 yards and made a near perfect shot. He ran about 60 yards and fell over dead... I had to quarter up the elk alone. Just as I was wrapping up, one of my buddies made it in to help me start packing meat. A few hours later, my dad and two uncles made it in to give me help packing meat out.
I hope you enjoy the video and I hope it was a good season for all my fellow hunters as well. If you have any questions about gear or anything else I use, feel free to ask away in the comments! If you enjoyed the video, hit the subscribe button as there is hopefully more and more videos to come!
