Hunter harvests his first bull yesterday afternoon on a elk hunt here in Montana! After shooting the bull at 65 yards the hunter watched it fall over after only going 20 yards. The elk rut has been heating up like the weather however the heat certainly shortens the time during daylight the elk want to be moving. The temps have been 80-87 degrees here lately so way to hot for good elk or deer hunting right now. The deer hunters aren't seeing much which isn''t a big surprise with this heat. We had one other big bull hit and not recovered earlier in the week. Doesn't look like things will cool off until next week.
