RE: Elk Quartering
fcf,
I've been doing that for many years (20 +) on hogs and deer. That was before ATVs' was had by all. When you have to carry on your back thru swamps, across running creeks, etc., it makes a big difference. I'm talking mostly whitetails and hogs, I can't even imagine having to pack out a quarter elk or moose. I'm sure I would gutless on these animals because of the terrain.
