Karl, thanks for getting more pictures posted today. I have been getting the bull down to Natures Way Taxidermy today, it is in the hands of the master now to finish the dream year. Micheal's shop is very nice, I know the mount will cap off my adventure.

Congratulations, Jim, I've been pretty shy about seriously trying to kill another elk since 2007 - had to leave that one in the field to waste, barely got myself out 11 hours later, heart attack and mini stroke.  I've had chronic angina along with the six stents (last one in 2012), I'm hoping to draw a similar opportunity for one last bull.
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.
