Nice shot!

You were not kidding about center punching both lungs.

 You might not have gotten much of a mushroom, but that's some serious hydrostatic shock damage to those lungs from a muzzleloader bullet.    I don't know that I'd be unimpressed.   No elk will go far with lungs like that.

I'm just getting old enough that I don't envy you cleaning that and getting it out alone........     :chuckle:

Hey guys thanks for all the comments it was really a great hunt. Austrian hunter it wasn't a second elk tag (didn't know there were second tags) but I did wait for this season cause i knew i wouldn't run into alot of other hunters.I don't like the general season seems like all I  ever see is other hunters and the elk are flat ass running out of the country. ;)
It's better to have a gun and not need it than to need one and not have it.                                                                             Local 66 sheetmetal workers
