Shooting them is the easy part, now the work begins.
« on: November 14, 2009, 09:22:57 AM »
So some of you may know I got my elk opening day.  I brought it to my uncles house where he has a homemade meat locker, pretty sweet.  We kept the meat at 37 degrees for a week.  Lastnight I went there after work and got it all butchered up.  Brought the bags, and bags and bags of meat to my house.  Today I will spend a good part of the day wrapping the meat.  While my uncle is in ocean shores digging for razor clams.  This is my first elk and all I can say it is no deer thats for sure.

I got my bull on day 2 and butchered it Thursday, I was by myself and started at 9 am in the morning and didnt finish til 10 pm. Lots of work for sure but well worth it!
