If you like scope cuts, here’s my best from tonight

[belshawelk]

My best one yet. What happens when you make a shot from an awkward position.
Was all set up nice and prone until the elk all got up quick and started waking away uphill and I didn’t adjust my position. Did make the shot though.

There’s beer goggles, then there’s the RUM monocle.
Glad you got your elk. If it’s any bit as impressive as that scope cut, it’s a true slammer.

 

[BearFoot]

Ouch! Did that once, you do it better.

My wink scar on the eyebrow pales in comparison to yours. I wink at the blacktail rack that I suffered from now.

 

[Rhcuam]

Dang! That looks like that hurt.

 

[recon6036]

Yep…..that will leave a mark!

 

[JV842]

Nice one!!!
Very long story short….5yo, sitting on my 8month pregnant mom’s lap, her 270 tucked under my arm, w her holding the butt, nice scar that still sits between my eyes, but had my first buck on the ground!!!

 

[EastTNHunter]

Nice one… glory fades, but scars last forever. Grit

It will make the meat and story all the better

 

[Southern Elk]

That’s a good one. Been shooting my whole life and never had that happen.

 

[Little Big Man MT Chris]

Oh man ! My first blacktail I scoped myself, nothing that impressive! Ouch

 

[Nick87]

Ouch

My brother got one from an old tasco scope on a ruger tanger 3006 He got in trade on a car deal. A short time later sold the rifle to me for $100 scope and all for money for a date with a woman he married. That scope had the sharpest edges on the ocular I ever seen. First thing I did was tear that tasco off and replace it with a better scope.

 

[EKYHunter]

Been there done that, once, and not near as good as you. However I missed the deer and apparently you didn’t so it’s all good.

 

[ashersdad]

Glad you made the shot, but dang! That had to have rung your bell a little.

 

[TrumpkinTheDwarf]

Daang! You really went for it with that one man! Glad you got your elk.

[kansasdad]

Impressive depth and length! However, it seems that the Russian judge did downgrade his score due to "failure to stick the dismount".

Just a little added spice to the whole adventure. Congratulations?? and Congratulations on the elk.

 

[tzone]

might want to squeeze that one a little bit.

 

[PorterHouse]

Sheesh!

 

[Bsquad]

."..you should see the other guy"

Can we see a picture of the elk that caused this?
