I can only see empty IMG tags. What service are you using? About the only thing I've been able to make work are Public Dropbox shares and Imgur.
Its a beast! I hope that's what the WV offense is calling our defense by the end of the 4th quarter. Looking forward to pics!
Sorry, I was out chasing deer with a smoke pole today.
updated to Sunday.... I think they will! Our D was very good.
The elk is indeed a very nice bull! wow! Congrats!
With a 300 yard zero. It's pretty tight way out there.
370 yards using 180 Accubonds. Scored 315.
Shot him about 3 miles from the ranch on the side of a mountain. He was moving with 6-8 other bulls and something had spooked them and they were pushing up the hill right at me fast.
They were scattered out across about 400 yards and 3 of them caught my wind and spun the other way at 40 yards, but in a drainage below me and out of sight.
This bull kept moving up the mountain pretty quick through nasty standing dead and aspen trees. I ranged several places where he might move laterally and sure enough he started moving right to left just below my 400 yard range.
Not the farthest shot I've ever taken, but probably the hardest. He stepped out with an opening about 5 foot wide and that was enough.
He took 3 steps and crumbled.

In this picture I got him out on the far end of the mountain in the middle of this picture. Pretty nasty slope and lots of dead fall.
I'm going elk hunting again next fall. No ideas where or with bow or rifle. Or with both. Have some other ideas on some hunts next year, as well.
