The liver was about 3 times the size of that picture. Maybe the angle of the pic threw it off. 1/3 of it ate well the first night home and the rest is in the freezer. Very mild tasting after a soak in water and cleaned thoroughly.
Still going to eat what's left of that heart soon (pan fried). I cut the bottom off and the top portion was well bled out.
300 Win Mag BAR. Nothing better than having mass fire power when in action. This year was 1 shot but in years past the semiautomatic paid off many times. Weight is an issue, but I'll take that anytime for the payload.
My season lasted 4 hours minus a couple days scouting so I was kind of disappointed taking the red cow. I was determined to get a grey, but when you are hunting with the wife and you got elk up hill from the road it was a no-brainer. I took her out mainly because she was leading the pack, up hill, gave me a clean shot, and she screwed up.
Someone mentioned the "gene pool". I culled that young cow out from future leading.
Butchering on Thursday in Moses Lake. Who want to go goose hunting on Saturday or Sunday? I got some fully flocked full body goose decoys and my layout blind ready to go. I may have field, after paying with smoked fish, but will not know until I go have a visit beforehand.
