I have spent lots of time perfecting my shooting skills with my archery equipment, but nothing can prepare you for the moment you draw back on an animal and not just a hay bale. The first wolf of the 2013 hunting season was recently taken by Montana hunter James Newell.

James said via the Montana Wolf Hunting Facebook page

“I took the first opportunity at 50 yards, and quickly expired after the first shot. This was completely fair chase, DIY archery.”

 

Montana's general wolf hunting rifle season kicks of on Sunday. Get more details on regulations on the FWP website.
