Succeded with my reindeer hunt this year as well. Lovely bull harvested in Knutshø reindeer area, middle of Norway.

Very nice, congrats!
 
That´s a big one, congrats !
 
Very nice, and beautiful country!
 
That is an impressive rack. How about sharing some of the details?
 
I got this bull after 6 days of hunting. The first 4 days I didnt see any reindeers at all. On this day I spotted a herd early in the morning, about 6km north of my camp.
After sneaking up on the herd, which was about 600 animals, I was lying down and waiting for about two hours. The reindeer was bedding and a clear shot was impossible. I then retreated and tryed to waiting them out. After a while, they started to move uphill. After a short stalk, I was able to get a shot at this bull. Here are some more pics from the hunt.

Was this a guided hunt or were you on your own? How does he compare to others you've taken?
