Default RE: What is the average size of an elk?

I must admit I've never measured one that way but I'd estimate aprox. 32" from top of back to bottom of brisket on average 6 point. elknut1

32" is correct for a large bull. A spike will be closer to 26" or 28".
I have read this information in a couple of different hunting reference books. Sounds about right.
