Opening morning of the general and LE elk hunt. We made a mistake on a small herd of elk that had a decent bull running with some cows. Conner continued to put in the time hiking all day and night with hopes to connect with a bull for the first time of his life. Conner thought this was not going to happen for him this year. But Finley on the last day he was able to hunt this year, this bull came walking in to a little meadow at about 125 yard giving Conner the last chance of the year to take his first elk of his life. Making a perfect shot he made this happen. So at 16 years old he was feeling very proud, lucky and was happy his grandfather and his dad was there to take in this special moment.
He may not be tall, wide or uniform , but he was very old and unique, several ring size points on his head. So I tagged him on the Manti/San Rafael unit. 10/26/22.

My Dad’s (Roy McPherson) once in life time Bookcliffs Cow Buffalo Hunt. It was a dang good time with my dad and brothers and all the nephews. We covered a lot of ground opening day seeing a lot animals and some of coolest country I’ve ever been in but not finding a cow. With the storm rolling in Saturday night, we were hoping it was just going to be a smaller storm and how windy it was it would blow right past us. When we woke up Sunday morning we had about 5” of fresh snow. This was going to change the 2nd day of hunting a lot. The snow didn’t stop one of my dads lifetime goals. We waited for the storm to lift and headed out and found the big herd. The storm moved right back in but we were still able to pick out the biggest cow in the herd and got a bullet in her. Then after tracking her 4+ miles finally catching back up to her and putting her down for good. This is one hunt I will never forget with my dad, brothers and nephews. I was glad I could be part of it for my dad.
