Way to go, control the head and you control the beast, at least that is what worked on my ex wife :yike:
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.

Yeah way to go Dave!!!!  The one point Dave is really playing down is the fact that it literally died on the edge of a ravine above the river that was 80 yards down, just about nearly vertical!  He hadn't recovered him when he called me.  The whole time I was driving up there to help him out I was praying that the elk didn't go over otherwise we'd still be packing it out!  I thought it was very nice of the elk to help us out.
