Corey Jacobsen waited nearly two decades for this hunt. Drawing a coveted tag is a cause for celebration, but it’s also a crossroads that brings immense pressure. Questions about expectations and the meaning of success linger in the mind as the moment draws nearer. This hunt caused Corey to consider on how he’s changed as an elk hunter—and as a person—in the 18 years since he first applied. Amidst this self-reflection, he located a rut fest and called many bulls to bow range despite the rough country and sparse public land access.
