[QUOTE="Guy M, post: 1519683, member: 8622"] [img]https://i.imgur.com/1UX5KGil.jpg[/img] Cow elk? December? Should be a terrific hunt! I shot this cow elk at 338 yards in Dec 2016, with my 30-06 and a 165 gr Nosler Ballistic Tip. Right through the on-side shoulder blade, destroyed the lungs. She stumbled/fell about 20 yards. Very quick kill and EXCELLENT table fare! The backstraps were particularly good. A buddy of mine also smoked an elk roast for us... Oh my goodness... :) Best of luck, and looking forward to your photos & story. I was fortunate to draw the cow tag for a place about 12 miles from my home. Managed to get the WHOLE cow carcass down off that mountain, into a pickup bed and into the garage for butchering. I'd never managed that before.
