Opening day bull, spike with a broken antler. When I saw him walking toward me I noticed the right antler was sagging way down. I coaxed him into 30 yards and made him hang out long enough to give me a great broadside shot. When I recovered him, his antler was still attached to the skull but I believe the skull was fractured near the antler base. I figure I may have helped him out a bit, but elk are super tough and he likely could have lived a long life with a funky antler if he hadn't walked into bow range. Good luck out there to all hunters this season!
