Spike elk are pretty damn funny lookin.  That is a nice healthy looking spike, great pic.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

He may go around 150ish.  He's pretty wide, I guess him at around 26-27 outside, with pretty good mass, but his forks aren't huge.  Sorry for stealing your thread Bone.

not at all.  I should have today. You were out of the fog.  Would have loved to have seen him.  Looks like a good 150 buck.

Bone, we've been out of the fog all week.  It's been sunny with blue sky all week.

Thanks Elknut.  Believe it or not, thats at about 50% normal clarity.  It goes into a big box and into the mail on monday.  Can't wait to see that bill.  HOPEFULLY the warranty will cover whatever is wrong. 

Go figure, I am usually laughing at Yakima as I am usually out of the fog myself, almost always right on the edge, but not this year.  Cold and dreary.

Great pics guys.  I'll second the earlier sentiment about spike elk.  They look like a character from the next Narnia movie...
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
