Dad knocked over his first Elk...(Pic Addes)
« on: October 10, 2008, 09:32:16 PM »
Its been a long time coming, my dad has been hunting them for a lot of years and killed one opening day today in Idaho....5 point I guess...No pics yet..will get them soon. I'm really proud. The only thing around down here he hasn't killed now is a Big Horn Sheep...

Give him a big fat pat on the back...any elk is a fine accomplishment, at any age. Right on!

Thanks all...I haven't even talked to him yet, I think they had a big day packing it out. I doubt it was far from the road, but at 68 and not in the very best shape...getting that dude to the truck will be a JOB!

Pics will come in the next couple days I'm sure!
