2015 wapiti hunt

Here are some pictures of my 2015 backcounty elk hunt. I was in a spike/cow are and shot this cow at first light of the second day; 45-yard shot. She ran 30-yards and piled up. Lungs/heart and thru the back shoulder. My arrow snapped in 3 places as she ran.
I was about 3 miles to the road so we boned her out in the field. I dated her tooth and she was 7-8 years old (lead cow). Her 6x6 boyfriend gave me a nasty glare as the herd scattered

Nice job, looks a little steep in places
What do you mean you dated her tooth?

Hmmmnm, never seen that before, that's interesting, they usually use the molar wear for age estimating.
Thanks for sharing.
