Elk Hunting / Re: Found after 2 days, meat worth anything?

Yeah, two days is too long. That’s too bad.  I killed a bull once right towards the end of shooting light. Dropped down in the twenties during the night. Found the bull first thing in the morning and lost both hind quarters and the neck.

Bummer but it does happen, even when you do everything to avoid making a marginal shot. Good news is, it happens less with experiences like this one, you will learn from it and be even better in the future.

Bummer, those ferns can really hide animals. Hate it when deer die in them if the blood trail is bad, you won’t see them until you are stand in on top of them.

Not how I wanted to fill my special bull tag. 15 points used for it. And it didnt help the freezer. I am going to write up a whole story because I always enjoy read other's write ups, and it was an exciting tag along the way. To sum it up, thought 100% that i had missed. Looked for him anyway for the rest of the day. Thought I saw him healthy with cows. That was a different bull. Stumbled on him today. All meat green as can be. Very bitter with myself about it.

No good meat. I thought the up side front quarter and a little other meat was good. But by the time I drove home the game bags were green, like bright neon green. Took the meat out and it looked like someone injected it all with green dye.

That’s a shame but kudos for tagging it

Cut out one back strap and check it out... The parts that spoil first are going to have more bone... It keeps the heat in... The front shoulders first... Ribs... Neck... Rear quarters... But 40's for 48 hours, it may actually only be dead 24 hours...  :dunno:


Good advice there!! :yeah:
