[oleefish2]

This is my elk from central Wyoming taken on 10/10 with a 1917 springfield 30 06 250 yards on the run with 150 hornaday. I also filled my cow tag and my friend got a smaller
6x6. My friend did not want his piscture shown and so he got a black face.

Wow, whenever I see open country like that - it makes me drool... NW MT and the regs against thinning has me in the thick most of my hunt - excited to see a small park and hoping that speck has a passer by...
Grats on your hunt! and a cow to boot! Doesn't get much better then that.

Na he just does not like computers, and I respect his not wanting to be seen except by famuliy or friends. Also he could wip a truck load of gorilas (not a good guy to piss off).

It was an interesting stock, it took about 2 hours to work our way into a spot we could shoot froom.

Agree - I bet that would be a difficult stalk. Suppose a bit more testy then speed goats... though they wind me and there is no shot with all the trees.

Grats again!

We guessed that there were at least 150 elk = 150 nodes, 300+ eyes, and ears

Nice bull, that open stuff makes them easy to find, but tough to get in on!

Very nice. Congrats to all.

The cool thing about this elk it was laying 2 feet off a 2 track road. If you look on the left side of the picture you can make out the trail. So an hour and a half of stalking to kill one on a drivable trail. None of the 3 elk were more than 20 yards from the trail.
