Pulaski NY Salmon
Fought the Black Hole hordes a few times. The sheen quickly wears off. Maybe I'd go back for DSR. I prefer the more quiet fishing for steelhead right around the beginning of spring. But I never went up in peak/winter to those slushy rivers, as that too sounds a little bit miserable.- Bullshot

Elk knife
Post your favorite WORKING elk knife, fancy or crude. Retail or custom. This Buck 113 with a 3 inch blade is the knife I have used for the last two elk I killed. The only one. Nothing fancy but it handled a cow without needing sharpening last year. I lightly sharpened it once halfway...- Bullshot

The Dog That Caught the Car - AKA Lazy Arizona Elk Hunt
Just weighed the meat, I processed 230lbs of boneless meat, plus 46 lbs of ground dogfood trim ( I do trim pretty meticulously, so probably 1/2 that could have gone in my own burger grind if I wanted a little chewier mix. So I am confident I had 250 lbs of edible meat from this bull, plus 26 lbs...- Bullshot

I just finished processing the meat.Seems like lots. Curious so I'll try to weigh it this week. My god I have been going nonstop since before labor day. 11:50 on a Monday and just poured my 1st celebratory whiskey. Enjoying it on the sofa. 🤣- Bullshot

It’s just three daya
There may be newer options. Doesn't make them better! Your load will floor an elk, how much better does it get?- Bullshot

Elk ivories in a euro mount?
As others have said, they just kinda flop around and will fall off during euro prep. But for anatomically complete head, just glue back on. -

Food, TP, Coolers, binos.... I applaud you sir. Your preparations bespeak a laid back and easygoing, devil-may-care attitude. Success is therefore assured.- Bullshot

Eastbound and down. Met a new pal through a mutual connection and quick processed the head at his place for the trip back. I owe him big time!- Bullshot

The Dog That Caught the Car - AKA Lazy Arizona Elk Hunt
Wrapping this up (I'll post pics when I have better service), I went back out and retrieved my bow after dropping off the elk. Got back to camp, laid out and further cooled the meat. Made an ice run to civilization, came back to reorganize camp, and finally went to bed about 3 am. Solo elk...- Bullshot
