Not a bad little elk....no bull tag though.
« on: July 24, 2013, 08:53:02 PM »
I know a guy.....fella named D-Rock....has a tree stand, some elk, and no bull tag. Sucks for him I suppose......

Would you shoot this guy or let him grow a bit?

This bull will be a stud in a couple years.  It would be a tough call, but the moment always gets the best of me so I'm probably blood trailing about now.

Not a bad little bull  :chuckle:

The best bull I've ever seen was a 7 point at 20 yards, opening day of deer season  :(

He does have weak tops but I have a thing for kickers, and everything else is pretty stellar. I'd be shootin.
