I just returned from New Mexico for the second year in hopes of bringing home my second Rocky Mountain bull elk with my bow. I didn't harvest a bull, but I did manage to harvest a broken heart. Almost anybody can relate to heartbreak, and if you haven't yet, you will. It's a powerful, relentless feeling that takes time to overcome. I've felt heartbroken when a relationship ended, or when I attended a funeral, or when I lost a pet, but this experience was different than every other time.
322" Bull Elk | New Mexico Archery Elk Hunting
We arrived in New Mexico on September 7th and immediately got dressed for an unexpected evening hunt. It was raining and the mosquitos were TERRIBLE. I was wishing every second that I had my Thermacell as part of my packing list. Also, I forgot one of the most important items for a fair skinned gal - SUNSCREEN! Both of these are must-haves and I paid the price for not having both. Don't make my mistake!
