I ran into an A3 guide in the field last year. He was calling so well I stalked in on him.  :o

The owner of A3 was on Jay Scott's podcast the other day. It was a pretty good interview. Dang they've got some big bulls and bucks down there.

Tend to agree. Long arming is tacky no matter what the size of the animal.  :twocents:

Heard it was shot in 23N. Any truth to that? Great bull but not into the velvet on elk.

Looks to me like he is holding the other antler close to his body. The camera is close to the each tho.

They're using an ultra wide lens, probably 16-28mm full frame eq. It distorts perspective by pulling close objects closer and pushing further objects farther. Just look at his upper body compared to lower body. Just as tacky as long arming imho.
