Brothers spike elk
« on: September 08, 2010, 04:52:58 PM »
Well I got home today from elk camp with my elk and I just got this pic sent to me of my brothers 1st spike. That leaves 2 more tags left in camp. Its been a good elk season so far. I guess he got into a heard and shot this 1 at 40 yards, I guess it went 30 yards or so and fell over and the work begins. My dad has helped pack out 2 elk in less than 24 hours, I bet he is ready for a cold 1! :)

I hope he gets his tonight, that would be bitchen :)

2 in 24. Sounds like a great start to the season! Are you in a spike only area?

Nope its cows and spikes, he just got greedy and shot the spike instead of the cows, I guess he watched em for a bit and then picked this out.

I think everyone is going to be tagged out in my group before I get there on Friday.  They got another elk down this morning.   :bash:  I am going to have to be placed on medication if this keeps up.
Cut em!

Sounds like you two need to buy your dad a bottle for helping with two elk in 24 hours.
Great job guys
