Awesome footage.....did that elk actually put his to his side? It almost looked as if it touched him with his nose.

Yes....self control.

This video is crazy...... I have had whitetails that close.... when we put on drives, sit right on a trail and hold really still, sometimes they just walk by your. I had a four point that I could have touched this year, PA's antler restrictions kept him walking haha..... very cool to see

Wow! I've had cows that close, and a spike about 15 feet away, but never a big bull. That would be so cool!

That was amazing. Self Control would file under another category! That was like god like stillness. Mother of Pearl!

So why didn't the guy shoot? I'm not a bow hunter -- maybe the problem is that if he had begun to draw his bow the elk would have skedadled? Why didn't he just grab hold of an antler and drawn his hunting knife? Just joking. Not only incredible that the elk was so close to the bow hunter . . . how close was the guy making the video?
