Nice work on your elk, sorta! (grin) 6 shots from a .338, WOW! I agree they are tough SOB's. Great story too, nothing like a Father & Son hunt!! I hope you have tons more of them! Consider learning the popping/nervous grunt sound, it can be made with your voice or a mouth reed, it's hands free & will stop any elk in it's tracks everytime, running or walking!
