Congratulations buddy. I had a very similar experience with my muzzle loader bull a couple years ago. Elk hunting is always special to me but there's something a little extra special having the opportunity to interact with bulls every day on your own. I had to fortune of being able to hunt and match wits with the same herd every day for 5 days. Like you I didn't end up with the herd bull but took what was offered with a very similar bull to yours. To this day I still have no regrets. It was the greatest hunt of my life. 3 years later, I still get a little emotional most evenings when I'm sitting at my table and glance up at his European mount.
Congratulations my friend!
