Finally connected on this big old cow. Started hiking at first light and found a herd at 1pm. Took a 500yrd shot and down she went.

Wow, 500 yds that is quite a shot, what kind of gun and scope do you use? Congratulation on getting your cow, sounds like you were a ways from the nearest road, must have been a lot of work getting it out.

[cool]Good job. Sounds like the hike paid off. How was the pack out?

The pack wasn't to bad since I had a little help. I didn't bring my pack frames so I used my day pack. Back leg barely fit with some stuffing but we got it done in 4 hrs.
I shot 150 grain in .270 with 3X9 Bushnell scope. I wasn't so sure about taking that far of a shot but I've spent a lot of time practicing 300+yrd shots. I had a good back rest and shooting sticks so it was just about where I put the cross hairs.
