    That would be a little scary, but man thats gotta be worth some street cred!

    And what a great story to tell your grand kids.

    So technically if I read it correctly they killed the bull after the season had closed?

    If the 1st shot was on the last day of the season, the killing shot was after the season closed?

    Paper has information incorrect. Archery season runs from Sept 18th to Oct 8th. It was the last day of their hunt there. They stayed a day longer to find the moose. I would still be changing my shorts after that encounter.
