Riley Green fills the freezer after scoring a massive bull elk with a bow in the Utah mountains

Riley Green has officially taken care of the grocery shopping for a while.

The country star traded the stage for the Utah mountains recently, and the trip ended with Green standing behind an absolute stud of a bull elk — one he took with a compound bow.

“Freezer is full,” Green wrote Friday on Instagram. “Not many things challenge you like bow hunting elk… thankful for a few days to chase em in the Utah mountains and that I was able to put it all together on an awesome bull.”

And awesome might be underselling it a bit.

The photos Green shared show a huge, mature bull with an impressive rack. He also showed what it looks like to lug all that meat out of the mountains, which is a monumental task in itself.

If you’ve followed Green outside of country music, none of this should come as much of a surprise.

He’s a longtime hunter and particularly serious about doing it with a bow. In fact, Green is a regular guest host for “Major League Bowhunter,” and the show previously followed him through a Montana elk hunt appropriately titled “3rd Times A Charm.”

He’s also talked about just how difficult it is to fit an archery elk hunt around life on the road.

During a previous appearance on “Bussin’ With The Boys,” Green explained that the short season and the time required to actually find and get on elk make bowhunting them especially tricky with a touring schedule. He recalled drawing elk tags in consecutive years but having only a few days available to hunt.

That’s part of what makes his latest Utah bull so impressive.

Unlike rifle hunting, bowhunting requires getting much closer to an elk before taking the shot. And we’re talking about an animal that can weigh hundreds of pounds, cover a whole lot of mountainous country and has absolutely no interest in making your life easy.

Apparently Green managed to put all the pieces together this time.

Country music is having a pretty good elk season

Funny enough, Green isn’t even the only country star to fill a freezer with Utah elk meat lately.

Luke Combs recently tagged a bull of his own during a Utah hunt with Jason Phelps — the same hunt Combs credited with helping motivate his recent 30-pound weight loss.

Combs had hoped to get his elk with a bow but ultimately switched to a rifle before getting it done.

Green, meanwhile, stuck with the bow.

Not that we’re keeping score here.
