Holy cow...or bull in this case...100 lbs is more than I weigh. That much meat would take a lifetime for DH and I to eat.
Great story. I cannot imagine how difficult it must have been.
I will plead ignorance about all things hunting, and at the risk of sounding stupid...did you have to work a long time to get into position for the shot? Was he standing there by himself or with a herd? Do bulls get cranky during the Buffalo version of Rut?
Damn, Warden ..you are one gnarly guy! Glad you had a great time.

running under the BigSky
moonlight we spotted the bull about 250 yards off the trail; we waited on the trail while Dave closed the distance to about 75 yards
because there is such limited hunting on bison, they definitely aren’t as skittish as deer/elk
he was all by his lonesome which was fine by us, I’ve heard of instances where a herd can get really owly
they do get cranky when they are rutting- usually July/August, we were definitely post rut- all the cows/calves were already lower in the Lamar Valley
