Elk Hunting

Went elk hunting a few days ago. Got this big guy. Who else has been this year? Any pics? Workin on gettin a deer this week. Have had a chance at a few small ones but not worth killing one for a small amount of meat.

a 30-06. It's hard enough to see an elk over here so I don't think there is a way I could get 1 with a bow.

lol.. I had to shoot this one where the blood spot is in the pic which shredded the rear half of the heart, hit the liver and went through both lungs and he was still runnin so I shot him again in the back leg and he fell down then I shot him in the head. He was gonna die no prob from the first shot since that's bout as good of a shot u can get but they sure dont go down right away sometimes. They jus don't know they're dead yet.
