Its not all that early.  Look at these dates.  This guy dropped between these 2 pics.  Looked and looked, then gave up and stumbled on his left side on the last day of mf elk while doing some last minute scouting for deer.  3 years later a guy i know fibds the other side  :bash:

Went yesterday and found a few browns, I’d say it’s a 50/50 mix of dropped and packing. Obviously the smaller bulls are still holding

those tame elk hold onto there horns longer. They have a contract with suncadia.
