When he ran away he got his antlers caught in a tree.
I though I was going to have a dead elk without firing a shot. It about broke his neck.
Poor *censored*. I hope none of the girls seen him.

Need breeding stock so you can get more images of elk. Myself, I would take the younger one...I love elk steaks. Great photos. Please keep them coming.

Personally, I would've drilled him as I haven't tagged out anything larger than a 4 point. He's a dandy though.
Again.... great pics Bone!
