Finally got elk age back.
« on: November 22, 2022, 01:51:17 PM »
So after only 14 short months (appx) I finally got the age back on my bull from last year. Now that I know what it is just seeing what other peoples guesses are on the age. I figure I will let this go for a day or two to see what others come up with for guesses before I let the number out of the bag.

Here is two pictures to formulate a guess from.

Let the guesses begin.

Elk seem to take longer than deer to get big antlers so I will guess that he is 10 years old. Great bull by the way!
