No spikes for me and I was literally soaked from toes to waist but it was still an awesome morning. One group of 30 cows and a 6 point bull and 10 more cows in smaller groups... 41 elk within 100 yards over a span of four hours and not a single other hunter... Great start to modern elk

Two spikes for us!  I was going to work on my house this morning and stayed in to work then got called to drag out a friends elk.  Got the elk back to his shop and started skinning and got the call to go help my dad get his elk out!  My dad got a nice 20" spike and my friends daughter got a nice 21" spike this morning.  So was busy dragging dead elk all day!  Good times! Will get some pics another day don't have computer to upload them!

nobody ever even said they werent shot in a any bull unit...maybe they drew a blues tag and took these nice bulls.......Good job on these bulls!!!

Both bulls were shot in the general season in GMU 346.

Both bulls in the pic are tagged,and both are legal in a spike only unit.

The bull on the left was quartered and part of it came out on my back. The bull on the right was shot at 20 yds,and fell 50 yds from the road.

Dads spike he tagged! I spotted a blonde movement in the bottom of some thick stuff and had my dad and brother stay up high while I cut it off and bumped it out into an opening. Only caught a glance and actually thought it might have been a cat....
