    cooking elk steak - help needed

    Never done this with an elk 'strap only because I've only had my hands on two in my lifetime. However, whitetail backstrap cooked like this is phenomenal! Throw that baby in the smoker and bring it up to about 125 degrees then pull it and throw it on a smoking hot grill just long enough to...

    Firearm Legality in Archery Season for Non Tag Holder

    Hey guys, new to the forum and have a question. I've got two buddies that will draw general elk tags in Wyoming this year and the hunt we've been planning will occur in grizzly country.

    How often do you change out your bow?

    I upgrade about once a decade. Archery technology doesn't seem to change much faster than that.

    First Time Euro

    Looks great! Like others have mentioned, make sure you degrease or it will yellow. Learned that lesson the hard way myself.

    cooking elk steak - help needed

    My go to for elk steaks is a smoking hot cast iron skillet. Throw in enough butter to completely coat the bottom of the pan and add a little minced garlic. Put salt and pepper on the steaks then sear them until rare, no more than medium rare, and enjoy. Super simple but delicious!
