The Mountain Project has dropped a new video with hunters taking on bull elk in Arizona.
From The Mountain Project:
“Hunting is really a series of decisions. And those decisions determine the outcome of the hunt. Deciding when to shoot and when not to shoot is perhaps the most difficult of them all. And is something Cody Voermans doesn’t take lightly, especially when the only shot is a long range shot. It’s an ethical dilemma we all face at one time or another, but having the right tools and the right practice, makes the decision a little bit easier.”
