yep righty or wrong the tag gets notched and goes in my pack til all is out . then the tag goes with the meat . remember that if you cut the horns off the carcass has to have evidence of sex attached to it .
It may be illegal but with public hunting for elk in WA being what it is I carry my tag with me on each trip. When I'm done getting the animal out I attach it to the largest portion or the antlers. I don't trust anyone!
