Years ago a fellow I know tried hunting elk here in Oregon with a spear .Was even on tv telling how he was going to do it .Well he got his chance some of his friends drove a herd of elk almost over him in a ambush they figured out .The funny part was He didn't throw his spear ,he hid behind a tree because he was so afraid they would run him over . He sure got kidded a lot but he took it prett well .
