    What would you do ... (3)

    If the calf is in the shape you state - I'd shoot it in a heartbeat. No point or sense in allowing the animal to suffer. Would I report it... HELL NO. It was an accident - right? I'd bone the little dude out and be done with it... If I ran into someone, or they walked up during the butchering -...

    Give me you Excuses !!!!

    13. That "toothpick-sized" limb got in the way and deflected my arrow... again! 14. We should have gone to that ridge over there... 15. If I'd have drawn a muzzle-loader tag this year, I could have stacked them up! 16. A bear ate my treestand climber and screwed up my "honey-hole"!

    Chuck Adams back at it.

    Nothing that money and fame can't buy!!! Heck, if we had access to the property he does - we'd kill big elk like that also! Obviously, Chucky boy is a good hunter but ya gotta be where the big ones are living to do that good consistantly - and they are very RARELY on public land... I put...

    Gator / ELK Combo hunt ;)

    Splutter - Gator hunt in FL is by lottery drawing and costs $1250 for a non-resident. If you are drawn the tag is good for 2 gators.

    Gator / ELK Combo hunt ;)

    Here's the story to go with the pictures... First of all, have you ever seen an airboat chasing gators in the high-country swamps in Colorado?? It's awesome - let me tell you. The Gator/Elk combo hunt is wild!!! Actually, the gators came from the FL Everglades the week before my CO elk hunt...

    Meat Yeild???

    Moosie - The quarters were totally cleaned of fat, hide, hair, etc, etc... I had 8 roasts cut, bone-in T-bone and rib-steaks with everything else ground into burger - with no beef-fat added.

    Meat Yeild???

    Well good news to report! With all the input from you guys - I rattled the cage of the processer enough that when my meat arrived yesterday - I got 290#!!! Thanks for the information - it certainly helped educate me so that I could address the issue with the processer... All's well that ends...

    Meat Yeild???

    Thanks for all the comments... Moosie - I know it was 440# because upon arrival at the processer - only the owners mother was there and the could not get the animal into a cooler until it was quartered - SOOOOoooo, me and my buddy - caped (yes, the bull was good enough to warrant a large spot on...

    Meat Yeild???

    The 440# I'm talking about is elk. We transported the animal to the processer whole (less guts/lungs, etc) and then while at the processer, skinned, caped and shanked the carcass - we then split the carcass length-wise and quartered it. The resulting quarters are what weighed 440# - from this...

    Anyone back from bow season yet?

    Got back from CO last week. I killed a nice 6x6. 4 of us hunting, 3 with M/L, 1 with bow. One of the others shot his first bull - a 4x4, other m/l hunter missed a chip-shot at 43 yds and the bow hunter missed a "gimme-shot" at 28 yds on a beautiful 5x5 - got that one on video!!! I just knew he...

    Meat Yeild???

    How much processed meat should be expected from 440# of hanging quarters? The 440# is skinned, shanked, etc... The processer claims it will yeild only ~120#...? Sounds kind of LOW? Any comments?
