Title: Brothers spike elk
Post by: Antlerking 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 :)
