Great job, beautiful rack. And I Agree, was tough this year. Didn’t see near the numbers of elk as usual.

My late season archery elk. I drew a cow tag and sure enough I end up shooting a spike.

Always great to be in the woods with the ol man, 75 and still get’n after it. Hunted every day we could to fill his tag and got it done on the last day.
