      @garrettlandon Thanks!!! Yeah it was such a Blessing to have had my first elk on film. I actually got lucky again and drew another archery elk tag in the same unit this year beginning September 1st. So I'm going to try and hold out for a larger bull. Super excited!

    The two greatest warriors are Time and Patience, and these two men resemble those warriors! I love the scenery, brotherhood, and respect! Outstanding equipment and videos, Leupold! What makes this video even better is when it closes out with that beautiful family welcoming their father home!

    Fantastic! Way to go! I enjoyed to journey immensely. One of my buck-list hunts for sure (God willing). So glad you were actually able to pull the tag. And thanks to both Leupold and GoHunt for allowing the footage of your prayers and respect... to both the game and to God.

    Great video! So many things well done in this, from the opening prayer, to Shane's thankfulness to the Lord, to him presenting the elk to his family, and to Leupold for not editing any of those things! Leupold did a great job of showing Shane and Matt as everyday guys with character, grit, determination, positive attitudes, humbleness, and on and on. When people ask why I buy Leupold, I tell them this is why. Keep up the commitment to integrity, character, virtue, and values!

    Congratulations man. Awesome bull. And yes it is a labor of love. You have a awesome edge. You have the LORD JESUS CHRIST on your side. I killed a beautiful 6 point in New Mexico last year. Best hunt so far. I think. I been chasing them 27 years on public land.

    @shanezimmerman did you do any sort of necropsy to see what happened to your arrow? I have a guess but I'm just curious if you did any extra "research" to figure out what happened?

    • @shanezimmerman
      @shanezimmerman Год назад

      We just assumed it hit a rock after the pass thru, but that is only a guess.
